Blacktail Deer Plateau We don't need no education

Peregrine's open nature was just one more thing about him that made his leadership great. An Alpha who did not listen to his subordinates and set their fears at ease could only fail. You can't lead when none will follow you.

He was glad that his words made Peregrine happy. That meeting could not have been easy for him. His taking of Fox did not surprise him, but his taking of Lasher did. Dante had always assumed, since Perry had children... but that had been somewhat naive of him. After all, shouldn't he know better than most that preference sometimes had nothing to do with gender? Personally, for him it was all about the relationship before. If the trust wasn't there initially then there was no way courtship would work. Perry and Lasher had apparently hit it off right away, for the other male had been a part of the pack for less time than Dante himself. He somewhat marveled that they could be as close as they seemed to be already. He envied those who could start relationships like that at times, but for the most part he was content with his own speed.

"Things are going well. Pretty uneventful. Not much need of Wardens with the borders are this quiet." He wasn't complaining, though. It would be far better if there were never need for protection. Alas, though, he expected the peace would only last so long. That was why he continued to watch regardless. The counselor trade was a bit trickier. Dante still wasn't positive he was qualified on that one, but if it was a way that he could help the pack, he was going to try for it. He hadn't decided on a third, but with the amount of hunting he had done during Junior's supposed demise, he wondered if Gameskeeper wasn't in his future. It was something he would need to think about. "I'm working on the others," he finished with, smiling apologetically that there wasn't more to tell.
