Sleeping Dragon I'll learn to love it

Rebekka backs up instantly and Gavriel begins to relax. Protecting his brood comes naturally, regardless of whom might show up near the den, and he’s thankful that she understands her place. The large male nods his head and turns his attention to Hvitserk as he teeters forward from beneath his protective stance and he watches him, then Rebekka, to see what might happen.

“Disha Hvitserk,” he says and shifts so that he stands nearby and lets the boy move forward under his close watch. Soon, the puppies would integrate into the pack and it will be inevitable before they begin to meet everyone. Rebekka is a wolf of Heda’s and one to trust, even if at first he’d been quick to hover.

Gavriel allots them a few minutes together before Gyda calls to them and he picks up his son, returning him to the den.
