Ouroboros Spine He's heading out the door

It seemed she sought to pus him away despite offering again and again to choose Moonglow, and to choose to dedicate himself to the pack. He would not follow the male who had so hungrily set his eyes upon both mother and daughter. He would not follow a man who made cutting remarks and still expected his subordinates to follow him without question.  And it was because he would not follow the man he saw as an unfit leader that he sought to upseat him, and take with the exchange of role, all that came with it.

He felt she had not put the needs of the pack before all else when she had taken the first male to cross her threshold into her ulaq but she had just confessed to him that she was still learning how to be a wisewoman. He could forgive her for her choice, so long as she proved herself willing and able to put her carnal desires to rest. 

Something of his thoughts might have shown. He contemplated speaking them- but he held back, feeling it was better to rein them in at least for now. "I choose to be firsthunter, and put the needs of Moonglow before all else." He said. He felt that in refusing to follow Raimo, he was doing just that. "I will go to the mountain, and I will return as firsthunter." He had made an offer before- and if the mountain found him worthy, he felt he would be able to make good on the offering he had made her before. 

Regardless of what happened, though- nothing, he felt, would shake his desire to do right by Moonglow and shake free the weed which had grown in amongst the roses.
