Horizon Ridge A Flicker in the Wind

"I am infinitely grateful that you seeked me out, Pied." Kisu spoke with a gentle tone once more, which was basically an auto-setting with the blue-grey mottled female.

But he then frowned at Pied's next words. His goldenrod orbs hit the ground before searching the white face of the female before him. "Pied, I -- I have joined a pack. I cannot come with you at this time." He paused a moment before continuing. "I apologize, it just seemed right to serve out here. I know I cannot ask you to leave your own pack, but I am sure we can still be friends." His heart sunk at the word 'friends'. Friends... Kisu's face contorted and he whimpered, licking Pied's face and wishing that things had happened in an entirely different way. He shouldn't have been so impulsive as to join another pack when he knew that there was an invitation to join Blacktail Deer Plateau. The male could have been happy there, had a family again. Had Pied.
