Swiftcurrent Creek At the ballet

Arric didn't know what the issue was
 Cygnet was difficult for sure
 But this was beyond even her. She hadn't even acted this scared when it had all been said and done. It irked him a little.

A fight she initiated. I was minding my own business there chaos. And you went for me. You need to own up to your actions. Wheres the wolf that snarled at me even after it was all said and done, hmm.

Arric stared at her for a moment working through it all. Was she jealous? Fearful that he was taking Arlette away? Did she just hate him? He wasn't sure, but the time for coddling was over. She had turned her teeth on a packmate and though he had turned it into a spar. The simple fact was she had gone at him with the intent to harm.

His voice was firmer now, but kind. He was no longer Arric now he was beta and this needed to stop. He just hoped this wouldn't turn Arlette against him, but if it did she wasn't who he thought.

You're six months old Cygnet. Time to stop acting like a spoiled brat. You came after me. You attacked me while my eyes were closed I might add. What you got was your own fault and you need to stop acting this way. The simple fact is were I any other wolf outside of these lands you'd have been killed or seriously injured  You don't have to like me, but you do need to learn to respect all your elders. And the pack hierarchy. If you don't more severe consequences will be had. As soon as your feeling better you'll be learning to tend to the borders, spar and treat others with respect.

He looked at Arlette and dipped his head.I'm leaving now.

Then he would turn without a word. Anger and irritation in the hard lines of his face. She was being ridiculous. And he was over it.
