I didn't word that well but he was meant to have reached out too ^^ don't worry about editing though unless you want to

Chacal seemed more intent on having him finish. He felt his nerves kick up a bit as she looked at him avidly, but it was not hard to deliver this with sureness. It felt right to know where they would go, what would happen next, and that it was the best for them all given the circumstances.

We have our homes. But if you ever need anything, I will be there. Their packs had an alliance, so this was not even a promise he needed to hesitate to make. For them, too. But I don't think I should know them. Not until they are old enough to want it. This was the part that he worried about, for her. Would she think it laziness?

It was hard to know he would not see them as children, but he tried to imagine what it would be like as a child, interacting with a stranger only on occasion. Chacal had said her pack was enough and her family was strong. She had said this was something she wished to do, even alone. If they chose to know him later then that could and he would welcome it. He would do anything and everything he could for them, be a father or a friend or a mentor. Perhaps all three. Not until they could understand.

He looked at her anxiously, hopefully. These meetings meant something to him too. He hoped that she knew that.
