Hideaway Strath let us be gone

The dark female said nothing, only looked at him with something sparking her eyes that made Cian think only of hunger. Each of these pack members seemed to be about as blood-thirsty as the last. While this thought terrified Cian deep down, it also thrilled him. Who would dare cross him with a pack like this on his side!? He would be unstoppable with them backing him, free to do as he pleased! Now only to garner their trust. No easy feat, Cian was sure of that, but he was determined. 

So when Nyra smiled at him and threatened to add his body to what he assumed was a growing number at the border of their territory, Cian didn't comment, not wanting to speak out of turn. He didn't dare express any fear though, having the impression that Nyra would detect any trace and leap on the opportunity. 

The alpha begins to speak, began to circle Cian like the latest unlucky prey animal to catch the brute's eye, Cian sat back on his haunches, lowering his head in a show of submission. 

"And you have it," Cian said, when the male had finished speaking. His grey eyes stared into the snow beneath his paws. He could feel his heart hammering his chest. His mouth was suddenly dry. "I have nothing else to live for, nothing else to die for. I want to be one of you."
