Duskfire Glacier raise your shoes

Lane insisted that she didn’t mind advice, before admitting she often thought about resuming her vocations prior to leadership. The first reason wasn’t so relevant anymore, the latter similarly unnecessary.

Meerkat felt a little tension in her shoulders as the topic shifted to Issorartuyok. She admittedly worried about his visions for pack life more than she had before, her take colored dramatically by their recent contention. But she was an adult who could separate her personal feelings and address Lane’s deliberations.

I think you balance him out in a good way. That said, you should think of yourself and your needs. It’s okay to consider him, your kids, the rest of the pack. Of course. But you should also think about what you want, Lane. What’s best for you? You don’t have to answer that right now, or answer to me at all. It’s just something you should think about, you know?

Meerkat smiled and gave the Alpha female a moment to process that before adding, It’s hard to put yourself first. It feels selfish, especially if anyone expresses disappointment or, worse, gets hurt in the process. I’m speaking from my own experience, deciding to go be with Njord. But I know it’s what’s best for me and the life I want to live.
