Blackfeather Woods A howl at the border

You'll get Damien-Butt this time :P

Damien was in the spot when the Loner's howl rang through the cold air. He was serious about getting his Warden Co-Rank in the eyes of Burke, because aside from fulfilling his mother's wishes, he wanted to have some merit for his real worth in the pack. Damien wasn't just the bratty prince and getting things just because his mother was the founder and the priestess of the pack, he wanted to earn his things because he was strong enough to take them, or because he was rewarded them. So dealing with outsiders and intruders at the borders or deeper inside the land was a priority of Damien's right now.

The last time Damien did this "answer the door" thing Akela had ruined it, and Burke had screwed it even further. But Damien was persistent, and he was absolutely sure that he had made it clear that his opinion on these matters was not only right, but also important.

Damien didn't hide in the shadows this time around. He wanted to make sure the loner saw him coming straight at her this time. Ears tall and tail high, Damien walked forth from the shadows, his lip twitching and his eyes fixed on the loner's. He didn't stop walking, and just before bumping with the female, he turned to sniff all around her dominantly. He wanted to make sure she knew who was in charge between the two of them.

What do you want? said the young warrior as he finished his circle around her. His deep voice was demanding, yet calm, hinting that he wanted her to either speak up or leave.
