Redsand Canyon i am one among the dunes

Every member of the team stalks about the area gazing to the flora. He likes what he sees and watches as his team saunters off to go explore. His eyes catch on the tan and white of Auriel’s pelt as she nears closer to him. Vaguely he knows in the back of his mind that Nemisis is just behind him. The memories of when he found the young female and frolicked around in a field with her. The obvious flirting they did would set Nemisis off like a fucking firecracker.

As Auriel comes towards him, his eyes follow her, a suggestive, but inquisitive smile contorts his face handsomely as he looks down to her. Her posture is drastically submissive, so different from many of the other female wolves he’s spoken to. Eyes of royal blue gaze up to him and they meet his own light ones. He’s about to answer the call of his name with a soft “Yes, dear?” But it doesn’t seem like he gets around to it quick enough before the ever looming presence of Nemisis presses close to him.

Her venomous voice reaches his ears and surely the females before them as well. Keeping his eyes on the smaller female for only a second, almost to reassure her that he won’t let Nemisis eat her, he faces the mottled brown woman.

He smirks at her words and shakes his head slowly at her. “Nemisis, leave her be. She’s acting as she’s supposed to — submissive. Don’t patronize her for it, she’s new.” His tone of voice becomes more stern as he addresses his Overseer. “Perhaps introduce yourself to our pack without teeth.”

Donovan notices out of the corner of his eye the faces that turn towards the trio. Though, as a display of dominance, he doesn’t take his eyes off of Nemisis’ own.
