Just as Tzila promised to keep an eye on Rye, the voice of Rye himself sounded from behind Lane. She jumped in surprise. She turned, and then she was given the pleasure of taking in the full effect of Rye's cheeky expression. He'd absolutely intended to startle her.
"--As if!" She replied to him. She stuck her tongue out, the absolute picture of maturity. Of course later, she'd come up with some brilliant retort, but right now she was still reeling a bit from his sudden appearance.
Lane was doing her best to play it off, but there were nagging feelings that churned in the pit of her stomach at the sight of seeing Rye up and about. Of course she was concerned for his health and recovery, but even more than that... well.. it was just, the last time he'd gone out for a stroll, he came back smelling heavily of Imaq. And Imaq herself was smelling heavily of heat, that was impossible for anyone to ignore. Now that Lane had experienced the consequences of heat herself, she had no illusions for what must have occurred between the pair of hunters.
What was Rye doing? Where was he going? Who was he seeing?
Not that Lane had any huge right to feel jealous... she carried Wintersbane's pups in her own womb, after all. Tzila was probably the one she should have felt jealous of, seeing as she had coupled with Wintersbane as well. Ironically enough, Lane felt nothing but solidarity with Tzila. She wished Tzila and Wintersbane all the best. It was Imaq's place she would have taken, if she could.
Tzila delivered a matter-of-fact comment on her pregnancy from the previous year, and Lane's ears jumped to attention. "You've had pups before?" Lane asked, her tone heavy with curiosity. Belatedly, she realized that it could be a delicate topic, and she hurried to add, "It's just that I've been looking for somewhere to den, and I don't know where to begin. ..I've never done this." She glanced quickly between the pair of slightly-older wolves.
Perhaps Rye'd had pups before, too. Lane's stomach churned again.
