Stone Circle acquaintances

Amber grew defensive, but Belle stood neutral. There seemed no reason to be on edge; Amber couldn't do much of anything anyway. But still, in an effort to keep the peace, Belle continued on in a slightly less invasive tone. I'm just trying to get the gist of the situation. I like having the facts. It helps me think. If Amber didn't want to answer then surely somebody else would, but Belle hoped that she could get all she needed then and there.
I'm a new recruit, so I'd like to get a better feel of the pack wolves within the territory. That and the fact that Belle wanted to know just how much she might be called on. Steady and Valette told her that they didn't have any caregivers in their ranks, so if this she-wolf was about to burst, then Belle had quite the storm ahead.
