Porcupine Ridge Take a bow

A black male came out of practically nowhere. Jhala perhaps would have noticed his scent had she not been so preoccupied with the Alphess and the male that greeted her. She looked to him for only a moment before dipping her head in a gentle greeting, after that she did not stare. It didn't take long for her to decide that this was the alpha male, head honcho of the pack. She expected more questioning from him, but he gave her no more than a quick look down. He left without speaking, perhaps leaving his co-alpha to make the decision. She wondered what he thought of her, if he had been watching the whole time. Her thoughts were not able to be fully explored, however, as the dominant female then spoke her approval of Jhala. 

The girl smiled, a let breath of relief released. Her tail, while remaining low, wagged happily and thankfully. The women seemed disapproving of her, she could tell, but regardless of such she allowed her a place among the ranks. For this, Jhala was greatful. She dipped her head as her means of thanks and respect. "I have no other intentions," she responded kindly and honestly, her amber eyes shimmering with excitement. Jhala looked towards the red male as he gave a last look, and then left. Her attention returned to the female, but not directly at.

"If you don't mind my asking," Jhala then said, "Your names, and the name of the pack." She hoped her questions weren't seen as rude, but the girl was curious and her time here had been mostly silence. She had been accepted to a pack, great! but, what pack? and who had accepted her? They now knew her but she was just as lost as she was when she arrived. The only difference was that now she didn't need to be afraid of being slaughtered for trespassing.
