"No, no, being Alpha means I make all the subordinates do the work for me," Peregrine quipped in reply. While that wasn't true at all, Peregrine would never be too busy to spend some quality time with a pack mate like Amon. His subordinates were priority numero uno; everything else came second.

Sensing that Amon didn't want to dredge up these memories now or even later, Peregrine gave the old timer's shoulder a nudge. "Hey, man, we don't have to get into it. No need to dwell on the past. We'll focus on the future. Hopefully your Donatus won't be any part of it." His eyes glowed shrewdly as he spoke. If Amon's brother showed up anyway, he would be dealt with swiftly.

"Take it easy. I'm sure we'll run into each other soon enough," were the leader's words of parting. He waved his tail at Amon, then strode off, leaving his pack mate to eat in peace and rest his weary bones.
