Golden Glade After Midnight (3/5)

Leathery nose twitched as he scented the foliage about the trees, amber eyes searching the darkness for any movements, though the sound of distant leaves being crushed under weight caused Streiter to lift his head. The brown male turning his head slowly as he then caught the sound of a chuff in his direction, ears dancing a top his head slightly as he brought his stare to look upon his King. The male's eyes widened almost at the unexpected sight, Strei's mind finally registering his Alpha's voice and question, gave a singular nod of his head, lips parting as he replied smoothly, ”Yes, Sir.” The mercenary in training giving his superior a respectful dip of his head, tail remaining low behind him as he brought his gaze back to Alder, ”Still, it's a lovely night for a late patrol.” Streiter said, offering his King a friendly smile.

The young male couldn't help but be curious as to why his King would be this far away from his recently born pups, though Streiter knew it better not to ask such a personal questions. Instead, the male peered to Alder and smiled once more, ”The boundaries seems to be in check, Alder.” He peered to his paws for a moment before adding, ”Though I haven't freshened the markings, I thought it best to leave that to wither you, or an Inner circle member.” Brown ears flicking back against his head as he now fell as silent as the night.
