Blacktail Deer Plateau the secret is listen

Kavik was pleased to hear that the unknown wolf at their borders was just looking for a place to call home. He seemed timid, but that mattered little to the alpha; he was only concerned with whether or not the members could pull their weight and contribute to the pack. Their need for more members grew everyday as winter approached, and he was mostly just thankful to find someone else in need of a home. Nice to meet you, Krarius, He replied, making sure to keep his tone low and calm so as not to make the new male feel threatened. What skills would you bring to the pack? he asked, his gaze encouraging as he studied the other wolf. He didn't want to overwhelm the male anymore than he could help, but it was needed information.

He felt his mates presence just as he heard her soft approach in the background. He assumed she hadn't come forward in an attempt to make the stranger more comfortable. His ears briefly moved back to where she watched but that was the only indication that he registered her arrival.

His gaze flicked to Siqsa as he backed away from the scene. The dark male continued to linger in the shadows, and Kavik was thankful for his protectiveness of their home, especially since he was still new. It showed great promise that he would be a valuable addition to the pack.

The alpha looked back to chocolate-hued man and once again gave him an encouraging look, urging him to speak freely.
