As the young man's question fell from his lips Arturo did not respond immediately. Instead, he let the silence settle between them for a few seconds, deliberating. The young man's interested seemed true, he did not smell of any others and Teaghlaigh accepted all so long as they obeyed and enforced the two rules that governed it and played their part in contributing and in keeping The Family safe. “Yes,” He responded after a few seconds longer, deciding that the opportunity was present before him and that he was going to seize it while it was his for the taking. “My official title is Ceannasach,” For a moment he contemplated if it was wise to speak of Furiosa and her role but then decided against it. Whether Cam agreed to and became apart of Teaghlaigh today or not mattered not. Furiosa and her role to them would be made apparent in their Family meeting. Intended to be held when everything became ...more official.
“Teaghlaigh means The Family,” Arturo explained, pausing to lick his jowls once, fixing the other in an intense stare as he spoke about his pack. “We are extremely tight knit, territorial and we keep to ourselves. We look out for our own first and foremost. The are only two laws that are expected to be obeyed and enforced: The Ceannasach's Word is Law and The Family Before Everything Else,” He gave a pause here to assess the younger male's interest level before continuing with. “Though this will not apply to founding members of Teaghlaigh there is The Family and the Comhlach's. Those who aspire to be apart of The Family. They must earn their place among The Family before they are given a rank and allowed in meetings. We don't give information about the Family or it's inner workings out.” It was a necessary evil of the recruitment process, unfortunate as it was. He had to place his trust that those he told would either join or they would keep their knowledge a secret.
“As long as you can contribute and are willing to become apart of Teaghlaigh and live and enforce it's laws and ways: you are welcome. Once apart of The Family you will always be apart of it. Punishment for betraying the Family is decided by The Family but the result has always been consistent.” It had always been death. The family before everything else after all. Luckily, Arturo had never had to seen that grim type of meeting and decision come to pass and hoped that he never did. Yet, it always remained a possibility.
