Bearclaw Valley they just gonna float out

The kid said nothing, just looked up at him with worry in his eyes. Good. He should be worried; he wasn't going to allow this forever. They didn't need such a burden, and he would eventually make Alarian see that. He was always able to make his mate see reason...well, he used to be able to anyway. Things had been more strained between them lately, something that confused and angered the beast. But Alarian was his and in the end, he would choose him over some useless kid. 

He continued to glare down at the kid, held back from doing what he really wanted to do. Soon, though—soon he would rid them of it, and they could go back to normal. Find somewhere to stay for the winter. Return to their lives.
