Redhawk Caldera total eclipse of the heart

It was a scary day for FitzDutiful. He was due to meet @Peregrine having asked for the meeting in the morning. He probably could have had this conversation right there and then but FitzDutiful had needed the time to get himself together, to figure out exactly what advice he needed from his alpha who had been successful in the matters of love and had the power to accept or deny his request.

As he approached the mountain top, near the lake of the Caldera, he wondered if the smell of the skunk would still be so pungent on Perry - FitzDutiful would happily think of anything to take his mind off what it was he was wanting to ask. He wasn't entirely sure that this was going in the right order. Was it right to ask his alpha about taking a mate before he had even asked Raissa if this was what she wanted?

Regardless, he also wanted to ask his alpha male how to go around asking her (if he was allowed. He didn't have the faintest idea of how to approach this topic with his girl - was it too soon? She had been here for less than a week but they had been together for longer than that. At least in his mind they had been together since the end of November. Maybe that was too soon too.

Matters of the heart were confusing.
