Horizon Ridge The Eyes of Another

Hawkeye nudged Pied. She felt as if she were taking things too far. The male was harmless, and if he stepped out of line again, she would make sure he knew his place. She watched him shrug at the response of Pied and sighed.

"Robur Aqua, why don't you leave us for now and return later on?" The male shrugged again and then headed back the direction they had come from. She followed him with her eyes until he was almost gone and then laughed/sighed, giving Pied a look as if to say "he's a handful."

"I know he can be a little offensive and... tough to like, but he is truly harmless. I find him interesting and entertaining. Once he knows that you are not interested, he is actually enjoyable to be around. It's just the rough beginning you need to get by first." A weak smile showed on Hawkeye's face, and she wasn't sure if she was trying to convince Pied or herself of the words she spoke.

"Anyway," she continued, "I brought him to meet you. I wanted to keep an eye on him since he just joined yesterday. He can be quite charming, you know." Changing the subject, she moved onto Pied's mate. "And Kisu! I have come to meet the wolf who stole my Delta away." She winked at Pied and raised her eyebrows a few times, a large smile coming from her face.
