Larksong Grotto Let's Rise

Charley smiled even after being faced with a question of where to go, shrugging and deciding that detail would come later. He was more worried about the fact that Aspen was now nuzzling into his chest, and the brute sat back and pulled her close with a paw to quell her worries and draw in her scent. 
           "Don't worry, my queen, I'll always come back to you. Stay safe here, too, and see what the pack thinks. I'll send recruits to Redtail Rise, if you'd like to meet them too. I'll go out tomorrow and we'll meet up in the den after sundown."
Nibbling softly behind her ear to preen the soft silver fur, Charley fell into silence and set to grooming his wife. They'd get a good nights sleep tonight, perhaps, but after these next few days it could be a while before they get to sleep in a place to call their own again. Might as well enjoy the peace as they can.
