Oh You Know Her

[size=small]To Cara, there was no excuse or justification that would logically explain the female's intrusion other than the desire to create havoc. And while there was, according to Cara, about a thousand reasons for the youngling's loyalty and membership with the pack to be put in question, there was something that did not let the Queen put him into exile right then and there.
It was an instinct, one that despite not having yet reasons to develop, was latent beneath her skin.
An instinct to protect him from the damage the lying traitor was capable of.
She had threatened to kill her young, and as a member of the Spine, and a youth himself Gaiban was by extension, hers.

Not as an object, but rather as a member of her family; the Spine's family.
If it was acceptance what he had been after he had found it after the second he had pledged himself to the Spine; and while Cara couldn't be her mother and Kaname couldn't be his father, they could be (and this is a fact) a million times more welcoming than the scarred bitch ever could. With Cara's own brood coming in the Spring it wouldn't have been hard for him to integrate into the tight-knit unit that had become the Spine, but if he preferred to follow the bitch into the cold.. there was nothing Cara could do.

With her lips peeled over her gums to reveal sharp pristine fangs she looked focused her attention to the pest that was Mara. Like a leech that carried infectous disease she kept up her attempt to brainwash the boy with her lies, and Cara, who could not believe a single word she said as she turned to claim she had not meant to intrude, couldn't stop listening. "Gaiban, this is your pack -- she's an intruder, and an enemy of the pack's " she barked, this time her voice carrying more tactful tone.

She struggled to keep her anger directed at the female alone, especially after he had questioned the legitimacy of her authority, with her eyes shifting back to Mara she left Gaiban to digest the information he had been given alone.
If he the choice that he should stay wasn't obvious for him, then the fact that they had had welcomed him as their own was obviously wrong.

Again her words drapped themselves in venom as her the Queen, the viper that Mordecai had described her as at the time, directed her focus back at the traitor. "Don't swear in vain Mara-- you know I don't buy your act. Have you forgotten your relation with the Spine is beyond repair?" she barked, with her teeth clattering menacingly. There was no more time for dire excuses and faux apologies.
With a last throaty growl and a final snap of her jaws the Queen lunged towards the bitch, her intentions to either drive her to the ground or drive her off the neigboring lands of the Spine clear in her eyes.
