Swiftcurrent Creek Those love songs break your heart.

Oblivious to the newly acclaimed Alpha's possessive touch to his shoulder as an act of jealousy, he simply felt the relief of her weight upon him -- she was safe, and for that he was content. Had they been alone, he likely would have buried his muzzle further to her fur and nape, breathing in her scent with a sense of comfort.

But they were not, and it would seem his growl had elicited a fast response as did Bazi's proud stance. He allowed himself to relax, his eyes skimming over the female with more curiosity now that she seemed so willing to submit -- Swiftcurrent Creek had plenty of wolves, and given the time they were currently in, Scim was less than fond of allowing a newcomer enter the lands.. but the decision was not his to make, and perhaps she would make an impressive speech that would prove that the Creek wolves would be foolish to turn her away.

Bazi spoke, and he remained silent still -- a guardian to the pack. With his shoulders falling to a more neutral stance, his eyes lightened as they continued to study the well-kept she-wolf -- the gold and red hues of her pelt that blended to perfect ivory was intricate and interesting. Even to him, it was obvious that Fox might have sent her on her way for the simple fact she might have felt threatened with the harem of males she had collected over time.
