Thea didn't look at Akazia as she found Jaida pushed further between them, placing a foreleg out in front of the pup as her mother had. She glanced between Kinvara and the pale woman, reaching forward to lay a paw against Kinvara's back.

They began to edge backwards, Thea nodding to Akazia to let her know she would watch their backs as she turned with the others to leave.
