The male confirmed that he was the mate of her grandmother. How strange she never heard about him. Could it be that this male was not her mother's father? After all, her mother had litters with different fathers. To her, that seemed normal. Arlette's red eyes widened when the male said that he knew of Easthollow. But how the male talked about it, it sounded that Easthollow existed for a long time. Her mouth opened further at the next information. So much she didn't know about her mother!! "My mother's name was Desna? But... why is she called Valette now?," she asked. She wouldn't think of changing her name.

Arlette shrugged in response to the male feeling sorry her father left. "I never really knew him. My brother was more upset. But that still doesn't make it terrible," she agreed with him. "I'm just glad that mom is happy with Greyback. He seems a good guy," she spoke with a pleased nod. The child was always very chatty. She found it easy to talk about her family. Arlette watched him and slowly had her tail wag when he said that he was her grandfather. However, her tail stiffened when he asked if her mother told her about him. As honest as she was, she instantly shook her head. "She didn't," she admitted. "We can go see her though! I will take you! Now I want to know why she never mentioned you," she suggested and smiled again.

"I have a grandpa! Wow!," she beamed and then looked at him with adoring eyes. "I thought I was adopted for a while because no one in my family is white colored. But you are! And my grandmother clearly was! You should tell me more about you! Where did you live all this time? And why weren't you with grandma anymore? Did you move on after she died? Ohh. That must have been so tough to watch her die," Arlette frowned as she started to guide him to Easthollow grounds.
