[size=small]The blatant disgust with which the pale Theta responded with roused a smile of pure amusement to settle upon the Queen's own features. "She is one" she barked with an annoyed scoff. While the reason that hid beneath their initial argument had perhaps been insignificant it was the fact that even after being scolded for her insubordination, she continued to threaten Cara -- who aside from being a long standing member of the Spine, had also held a higher rank.
It had not been her crime itself what had condemmed her, but the way she responded to her punishment.

A punishment that according to the rules of nature was rightfully deserved for those who broke the rules that they had, freely, adhered to as they completed their joining. Perhaps along with her forgotten brain, the female had forgotten to read between the lines of the contract she had silently signed as she accepted a rank within the Spine. Or perhaps she was just merely an idiot.
The two seemed very likely.

What she had not seen as likely, however, was for the female's anger to escalate so quickly after pups were made part of Mara's threat equation. Even if Cara had held caution towards her menacing words, a part of her had blatantly diregarded the seriousness of it all simply because of Mara's incompetence to do such.
"She won't lay a paw on them; of that the pack will make sure" she interjected with pompous confidence before she could hear Alusia's threat to Mara, followed by a quick congratulations on the, yet unconcieved, pups that she would carry.

With the small whiskers that guarded her muzzle twitching with amusement she watched the Theta with thoughtful eyes. Not only during the initial part of their conversation had she managed to tip the scale to her favor (mostly because of the interest she expressed in the trades Cara loved so much herself) but now, as she spoke threats against the enemy with such conviction and showed a genuine interest in the yet unborn brood of Moretti pups, she began to win more than the Queen's liking.

"That's what I hope", she answered, honesty seeping its way into her words as she innevitably voiced the anxiety bringing life to the world produced in the Queen.

She was the type of wolf the Spine was waiting for.
And she was type of moral support Cara was craving for.
