Stone Circle On guard!

Steph nodded, understanding why Easy's father had chosen that order. But, because they knew the scent of their attacker, Steph didn't think Val would give such directions. That scent would not soon be forgotten, and anyone with it would no doubt be attacked. But wolves they knew, wolves they trusted, would still be welcome. Thank you for your condolences, she said softly. 

Steph was unaware of the turmoil going on through Vespera's head. If she was, she might have tried to quell the questioning. Greyback, like everyone else, had been on edge, and he hadn't wanted anyone to get close to his fallen pup. Not even Valette had let him get close to her. So, when Greyback attacked, Steph figured he was backing up Valette in her wishes. She didn't realize Vespera had taken it so personally. Her gaze travelled to her pack mate when her name was given, and then went back to Easy. Have you come to visit a while? Steph asked, wondering if this would be a short or prolonged visit. East was welcome either way, of course.
