Ajei was surprised that Sobeille didn't pay  more mind to Arrluk. Most of her girl friends enjoyed looking at him. And he was handsome there was no denying, but she also cared deeply for the wolf he was, but that was neither here nor there. Perhaps SObeille's tastes lied elsewhere. No problems there either. Though she also briefly remembered Sobeille's thoughts on men in general. Perhaps that was it.

Ajei nodded her head. Yes I did something called a Kinnalda. It is something in my mother's culture. For four days I Run to meet the sun. Back and forth three times or more. On the third day I hunt for the entire pack. On the fourth day. They all eat. It is then I am considered women, no longer girl.

She thought briefly of all she had done. And touched a paw to her cheek.
