Cedar Sweep If it's true

YESSS

Oryx felt a little out of place, when she was informed that she was, in fact, dealing with the alpha of the pack. That he'd taken this much time out of his day, and had sat down with her to talk, rather than simply chasing her away the way he might chase off an unwanted pest...It had to be worth something. But trying to figure out what that was, when her own self-worth was so low, did not come easily to her. 

So when he bowed, she stepped back several paces and shook her head. Something was wrong about this, she thought, that this lion-man should bow down to a lamb like herself even if it was just an act to make himself seem more polite and respectful. The smirk was off-putting, and she began to regret having stayed so long. She thought, for a moment, that she should take this last opportunity to flee- but could she leave Arlette behind again? And when the pale female stepped to his side, like a harbinger of death, she knew that there was no running away this time. The pack was healthy and growing- this she could see by the prosperous bulge of the pale female's side. So perhaps...

"I would like to see Arlette," She said. The quiet woman could be her barometer, perhaps. "I might stay, I would just...Like to see Arlette first," He'd said to ask for what she wanted, and that she would receive- would he stay true to his word, then?
