Swiftcurrent Creek LET HER GO, BOYS | join

It would have amused her to know the other compared her to a gentle beast – then again, perhaps the viper that had rested beneath a flawless pelt had now abandoned her, leaving her a more docile creature than before. Had she been more exuberant, like in her youth, she likely would have returned Jinx’s aimed attack with one of her own – bloodlines cast aside. But she hadn’t.. she had respected the daughter of Koios and Nanuq, leaving her to her ways – despite how she had not truly earned them.

Yet Lethe was no mind reader, and as the other took careful consideration of her, she too did so unto him. The subtle shades of grey interlaced with his pelt was endearing – the quiet softness that emanated from him was a nice change – thus far, Swiftcurrent Creek held many roguish males – one of a softer nature was certainly welcomed in her presence, at least. Still, there was something about him that lured her – perhaps it was his sudden appearance in her lands and the brazenness of calling her after doing so.

He answered her question, but rather than clarify, it did the opposite. Lethe blinked in return, her slender figure shifting her weight as she raked her eyes over his features. “And you expect me to take a wolf who made such a decision on a whim seriously?” It was a simple question – he had not come here, seeking a home, and while it pleased her that the Creek had drawn him as it had her, she had every right to question this sudden proclaimed loyalty. He flashed her a grin, followed with a wink -- something that was only met with an aloof lift of her wolfish brows.
