Bearclaw Valley [m] It's very easy to take more than nothing

Cameo.

From a wooded spot where he would disappear into the shadows, Aventus watched the proceedings in silence.

He did not know what to make of the small white she-wolf at his mate's side. Had he encountered her out in the wilds, he might have pegged her for a coyote or oversized fox and made short work of her. Even now, knowing she must be at least part wolf for Arielle to bother with her, he had the familiar urge to grab and throttle that he always felt around coyotes. It would be... Difficult to live with such a thing.

Not at all helped by the fearful tribute at their side. Aventus gave the victim a cursory glance, then fixed his moonlight gaze back on his beloved Bruin-heart. He had no interest in disrupting her ceremony with his presence, so remained enveloped in darkness to watch unseen.
