Lost Creek Hollow for the line in my life

She stood by Indra's side, proud and tall. It was some time since she had stood this way: she knew she must make an impression now, as Alpha of Bearclaw valley, away from the grief of her lost child. Here she could start anew in many ways with what remained in her life.

She smiled sweetly at Terance as he approached, and though the questions were directed at Indra Laurel said: Heya. I'm Laurel, Alpha of Bearclaw valley and Indra's sister. Our numbers have dwindled and our territory can't offer us enough safety over winter -- we've left in search of a new home. We were hoping this could be it. She gave Terance the sweetest eyes she could; she knew how men worked, and though they had something to offer to this pack, they still relied greatly on acceptance here. It'd been long since she had needed to put on a mask, and it made her feel so much in control; it felt better than she had imagined it would.
