Hushed Willows The keeper of this host

Grace herself could not hold back her own laugh as Tavi found this all amusing, but it was tempered by awkwardness and cut off at another tug. The mother stepped in to help, but Tam just wasn't having it, and held on even as pulled away. Eventually, he did let go, and Grace stumbled to her paws to shake out her pelt with another kittery laugh. Like the alpha, Grace was impressed with the little grey pups bold demeanor, and also hoped that it was something he never grew out of. A fear, naturally instilled into her by her father, that he would grow up like the males of her family flitted in her belly, but she squashed it down. With a family pack to raise and love him, surely he would be a good man when he grew up.

The yearling smiled over at the pair, and pawed gently back at the young boy with a small giggle.
