Moonspear pls accept my fool

A kinder fate than my own, he thinks as the alpha speaks, but he only offers a nod, unsurprised. Her next words, however, catch him off-guard, though it only shows for a moment. It's what he'd hoped for, but he doesn't think he'll ever get used to actually getting what he wants — so he tries not to get his hopes up too soon.
I left my first pack for that opportunity. I want nothing more than what you describe — and I would offer you my loyalty in return. Obedience without question. I will serve you and Moonspear to my last breath if there is a place for me here. He is a simple man, and, in his opinion, does not ask much; a safe place to rest his head, allies at his back. A sense of belonging, in truth, though he doesn't dare voice that directly. Whatever it takes. He adds instead, echoing the woman's words. She would be giving him a chance at the life he seeks, after all; few things can repay such a debt.
