Bitterroot Valley watching as i fall

She was awfully kind for a stranger but Aleks didn't reject it. It had been sometime since he had last been on his own (even then he still had somewhere to return, never truly alone) and he knew not what faces would greet him during this part of his life. Friendly was better than trying to rip into him.

Her offer sounded too good to be true but he had no reason to doubt the soft female. Aleks found his chest almost hurt at the kindness she showed him. He did not think anyone was capable of showing him such kindness besides his previous wife. Perhaps their similarities was why he had been so soft during this encounter, usually sharp words and shows of teeth.

Thank you. I'm not sure what I can offer in return - guarding perhaps - but if you need anything you'll have a good chance at finding me on high ground. He rumbled softly. Aleks was usually not one for deals but her resemblance to Katyenka had a dizzying effect on him.
