Blackbeak Bluff True power doesn't come to those who are born with it

Ratio didn't expect the aggressive response, though if he could have heard himself he might have been less surprised. He pulled up short, his own hackles rising. They were right, of course, it was none of his business. Although the longer he looked, the sooner he realized that the wolf was actually female. She was built like a bear, much larger than the males Ratio had met in his lifetime. It didn't ebb his irritation as his eyes grew narrow and dark, a low rumble in his throat. 

He couldn't help the physiological reactions, even as logic told him that she was in her right to refuse to tell him. 

"Indeed." he growled, ears flattening. He stood there a moment longer, before stepping to the side with a huff, fully intending to continue on his way but not trusting the wolf who was more scar than animal to be at his back.
