Emberwood water keeper

Was it that easy?

Wake had the presence of mind to appear mildly surprised, rather than show the disappointment he felt. Were all packs in this land so easy to bed? He could spit at the mere thought.

As he understood it, he need only keep his legs under him to be Saatsine; if worship was not required, then there seemed little to it other than keeping stride with the ever-migrating herd. This didn’t sound fulfilling, which is why he supposed someone like Suliya had to dredge seedlings of deeper meaning from the dull soil of this garden.

A tease then! Wake blinked, his faraway look returning. The snowrunner grinned back, quick to rejoin. Would any of them take me? he bantered, his nature making it easy to lean in rather than pull away from the joke. Despite his displeasure with the wolf’s ways, he certainly found Sun Eater to be more personable than he seemed from afar.

A man to speak candidly with. Do you share your women, or are your people monogamous?
