Redhawk Caldera Spring Candy

Yes and no - was Birk's internal reply to the next question. He had long since recovered from the frostbites and infection - the one true reason he had joined the group in the first place. Now he was keeping his promise to repay his debt to the pack, which had turned out to be easier than he had anticipated. When you liked the people - it was no problem at all. But if asked to be honest - did he need them - he would most likely tell "no". He would be good on his own too. But Raven did not have to know that and Towhee - even less. 

Therefore he smiled and told: "I do." As for the next question... well, he had no way of knowing and frankly speaking: "I don't care."
