Silvertip Mountain I wasn't in Vienna

Niita listened intently as he spoke, trying to believe what he said. She didn't have many fears, save for her aversion to touch around her neck and being forced to submit. Niita was getting over that steadily, thanks to her mate. Hopefully the scene between her and Zeke wouldn't ever happen again, with anyone.

The one thing she truly feared was being useless, being pushed aside as she had back in Asmundr. It wasn't so much that she had been useless but more like she had been a decorative piece. Niita had helped to hunt and such in Asmundr but most of her pack mates didn't seem to want her there, as if they feared she would try to uproot Kainan take back the leadership for herself. It had led to her eventual banishment and even now Niita feared the same rejection. 

"Thanks, Zeke." Niita smiled, happy he was her friend. "After I get back I'm gonna take a break from scouting for a bit. Hopefully that will put some of Steady's worries at ease." Niita chuckled a bit, looking forward to coming home after the trip.
