Swiftcurrent Creek And i just want to be alone

Arlette smiled at the idea of Arric being a father. She could see it. Perhaps because he already kept busy with the pack's youngest members. She hoped that it would be in the cards for him too. He deserved his own, instead of caring for others. Maybe one day. "I know, but that also makes it harder to watch when that light fades a little due to circumstances or events out of their control."

"You are nice too, what are you talking about," she returned about Arric's father. It was nice to get to know him better. She could visualize him traveling with his father. "That sounds familiar too," she admitted to him, about his father fighting for the better of others. "Sound like he taught you all the right things."

Arlette smiled softly. "I agree." She did like that the thing she explained about reeds was avidly used now, not only by Arric but also by Eshe. Arlette did wonder about the white markings around his eye, but she also realized that she had asked him a lot already. She didn't want this to be an interrogation. She kept up with his pace and helped him mark in places he pointed out where good ones.
