Redhawk Caldera throw a log on the fire

Fox shared some misgivings about Tempest. Peregrine wanted to give her a fair chance, though he basically agreed with everything his mate said. She had the farthest to go when it came to proving herself and earning the Alphas' trust. Truthfully, he had forgotten about her back story. His brow furrowed when Fox reminded him of it.

"I'm pretty sure she can read minds," he said offhandedly. "I agree about Som, though. I keep wishing we had more leadership positions. I'm not about to unseat Elwood or Fin but she would make a great Beta. And I think Ashton has a lot of potential. Speaking of which, did you hear they're sort of hooking up?" Peregrine paused as a thought occurred to him. He bit his lip. "I wonder if those two will eventually leave to start their own pack. I hope not... but I wouldn't be surprised if that ended up happening."

He didn't want to linger on depressing thoughts, though. "Wanna talk baby names?" he asked, eyes shining in the den's dim light.
