The seawitch was in no mood for company, but Mordecai was given a blank stare, one which slowly cleared into a vague gesture of invitation for the Delta to settle himself. The Ostrega was one of the few wolves whose company Lecter tolerated these days — Kaname, Sitri, and Cara were the others. It will heal,
he answered coolly, not deigning to glance down toward the barely-scarred wound upon his foreleg.
Perceptive enough to know that Mordecai did not approach out of sheer concern for his Beta's thin limb, the shaman shifted himself until he could gaze more keenly into the hunter's eyes. I have been searching for a cure that I might administer to her,
he muttered, assuming the other would know of whom he spoke. I cannot slow the symptoms. This ... this is a malady with one ending. I have seen it twice before in my lifetime.
Icewater eyes met and held with growing coldness the face of his subordinate. Keep your distance. Do not draw near enough to her that the disease might be spread. If you are bitten, I cannot save you, Mordecai.
The burn of shame began in his breast, that he was forced to speak of her in such a manner, but the wolves of Ouroboros must be kept safe if they were to survive the demise of their leader.
Save himself, of course.
