I'm back sorry for the wait!

The annexment of Mara, along with the scents of the other females along his their borders, had him on edge for the longest time. He was fairly certain that she was planning some kind of misguided, unplanned revenge against Cara specifically, but revenge against Cara would mean revenge against him, and Sitri, and the whole pack. That made him nervous, especially with the hypothesized arrival of his and her little ones. So he was secretly frightened that Mara was trying to send some kind of spy to get the jump on them, or some paranoid nonsense like that.

And now there were two young males at their doorstep, one who had already eyed his mate, the other who only responded with subtle sass. Already, he did not like either of them, but he went on, covering over his mistake. "We're called Ouroboros Spine." He stated the hard-to-pronounce word clearly, enunciating it, not in a sarcastic way, but simply to make sure they understood how to say the damn word. "As for how long, I'd say since spring last year, though not always here. We were called under another name before coming to the Spine in the summer." He answered the vulgar, perverse wolf first, mainly because he was a lot kinder with his words despite the language and glances he was giving Cara.

As for issues with the locals, there was not much to say, really, as of yet, but if they did excuse the rough start and joined, he supposed it would not hurt to tell. "We are, as of right now, neutral with the other packs, but there are a few unsavory locals lurking about that do not like us very much." He wondered if Mara was really planning on starting some semblance of a pack. The assassin wondered how well that would go; he hoped that she ended up with another upstart that once lived on a little island."If you were to be accepted, then we expect you treat that group of upstarts and other intruders with no mercy. Chase them out, give them a few wounds they won't forget, or kill them. As long as you ensure they are not bothering us ever again."
