Farewell to the Shadows

Each time a giggle escaped the boy's mouth, Kove would inwardly smile to himself. He liked that the boy could always be so happy, and knew he was sure to miss him (especially after their game of hide-and-seek!). He knew he had to remained focused, though, so he stopped allowing his gaze to drift to the patchwork child. He kept his gaze secured to the Queen, but not in a way that might show a challenge being made. The ghost was leaving, there was no denying or changing that, but his loyalty was not something that could be taken away so easily. The man would, most likely, be loyal to her and the Brotherhood until the end, but in a way separate from how he was to be with Scarlett and his soon-to-be pack.

The ties of loyalty he held brought his interest to it's highest peak possible as he listened to what Meldresi had in mind. He was not so sure his lover would be overly thrilled of such a thing taking place, but she was not currently here to give him her opinion. She was off, probably taking care of Adlartok or working to recruit members for their pack. He wished to talk things over with her before hand, but it seemed like a once in a lifetime opportunity, and also made him feel as if he held the Dark Queen's trust. It was an opportunity he was prepared to jump for. "I would be honored to lead such a pack," Kove answered after a second of silence, offering the woman a bow of his head as he spoke.
