Blacktail Deer Plateau i'll see what tomorrow brings

The pups were just about a month old now and, soon enough, they would begin accompanying the adults on jaunts around the territory. Peregrine was even tempted to let Ty and O.J. tag along today, though an inexplicable intuition made him decide against it. He kissed their heads, as well as the other pups', then bade Hawkeye and Kisu farewell as he headed out to hunt. The Alpha male had a growing family and he was spending more and more time on the game trail lately in an effort to keep them well-fed.

A howl interrupted his hunt before he could even get started. Vaguely annoyed, Peregrine made his way to the borders to find a pale stranger standing astride his own Beta female. Peregrine paused, peering at this scene with a stern, apprehensive look on his face, then traipsed closer to the pair.

"What's going on, Blue Willow?" he asked, addressing his direct subordinate even as his eyes fastened on the stranger with platinum fur, Caribbean eyes and subtle scars marking his muscular body. The longer Peregrine looked, the tenser he became.
