Golden Glade i've been thinking too much

Aspen's eyes narrowed unknow to the male that was now a significant distance in front of her. She muttered a few words to herself but continued to mark trees along the border making sure the border was well stated. Though she had no doubt that it would be. 

She followed Nico until they ended up reaching the other side of the mountain and then she quickly parted ways without words.Aspen made a bee line for the tunnels where she intended to spend most of the rest of the day. The last half of the patrol had been spent in a tense silence that neither wolf dared to break.  Seems they both ended up in bad moods and it was pointless trying to fight him for conversation if neither party really wanted it.
