Stone Circle Honey, I'm home

Rueger had been looking to Valette for an answer, but when he got it, it wasn't from her maw. Her gaze turned to Greyback, who was audacious enough to answer for the Alpha. Not only that, he said she looked tired, and offered up his own company instead. Rueger was very careful to keep his expression neutral, though it was difficult. 

Before he could give his own answer, another female showed, and effectively put the large male in his place. Rueger didn't crack a smile, but he was laughing on the inside. The male deserved it for answering for someone else. Valette spoke up then, and Rueger's gaze went back to her. What she said angered him, but even that he did not show. I'm so sorry, Valette, I didn't realize, he replied back earnestly. Of course, take all the time you need. I am not here to rush you. He realized then that it might be some time before Valette would call on him for company. No worries, as Rueger was a patient wolf. 

He looked back to the large male. In the meantime, you and I can hang out, he said to the male. Rueger wasn't stupid. He didn't think Greyback wanted anything to do with him except get him away from Valette. It would give Rueger a chance to get to know some about Valette, just indirectly.
