Hushed Willows in-depths

Aww no probs. Aliki has prickly moments as well!

Okay, okay. So she was willing to admit that this time she had stepped in without knocking first. She had underestimated how established this growing pack already was. Now, she faced down potentially ugly consequences.

Only against one visibly irritated wolf. Unlike the last time, her stare did not waver, locking boldly on Reverie's. Aliki played her card as she took a step back, hackles beginning to bristle. The ebony skin of her muzzle was tight, ready for a show of teeth that had yet to come.

"If you insist." She drawled, not without a smug edge in her voice. She would leave, but not go far while she was hungry. Just enough out of reach so she would not offend. "What is the quickest route out of your territory?" Out of her depth, she would not provoke a confrontation. There was no water here. Just rock and soil.
