It had been approximately two weeks since Finley had been rescued, and now that her healing was well underway, Elwood no longer felt the need to stay by her side constantly. Much had happened during the time that he lingered near home, the most notable being the shift in Redhawk Caldera's claim.

He was unable to make any sense of their actions -- why the hell would they want to live in the backyard of an established pack?
