Stone Circle Officially an adult

Ezekiel caught Valette's scent as soon as it started to change. He wanted to be with Valette so badly, but he knew that he couldn't. She had to accept him, and he didn't think they were on that level yet. She was probably missing Steady about now, and the thought saddened him. If Steady was still alive, he and Valette would've mated, and they would have children. Even though Ezekiel would've wished it to be him, at least his friends would be happy. He would've been happy for them. But Steady wasn't alive, and there would be no pups in Easthollow this winter.

The large grey male had refrain, but he decided that perhaps he should go find Valette, protect her from any males that might try and take her. He wouldn't let that happen, not another tragedy. So he set off in her direction, coming to find her quickly. He kept his distance and stated his intentions before she could get any bad ideas. Hey Valette, I'm not here for you, I just wanted to make sure you were safe. I don't want any males attacking you. He said, his head hung low submissively.
