Stone Circle Honey, I'm home

Valette offered a smile to him when she greeted her back. She was glad that their move went well. Soon this valley would be filled with friends. Valette felt more powerful just thinking of it. She felt that the valley would be safer in general with all these neighbors being of alliance with Easthollow. Her eyes widened when he spoke about a change in leadership. "Oh, change in leadership? Why? Did something happen to Rannoch and Liffey?," she asked, the latter she met only recently at Easthollow borders.

Then Rueger confessed the reason why he was here. He wanted to... hang out with her. Valette blinked. Did he just ask her out? She didn't want to assume, that would be very vain. As she was about to reply Greyback turned up behind her, which was signaled with a quick twitch of her ear, followed by a glance over her shoulder. The female offered her packmember a smile when her shoulder was nudged. Valette felt a bit flustered when Greyback asked if he was interrupting. Because to Valette, he would never really be an interruption but if she got Rueger's question right then it would mean that he had interrupted.

"Rueger wanted to get to know me better," she explained kindly to Greyback while looking at the agouti male. It was not a lie and perhaps the most strategic answer. Though with her losing Stark recently she wasn't sure if she would want to have anything romantic at the moment that felt awfully personal to just tell the two. "Sunspire just moved closer to us. They will be neighbors, and hopefully good friends," she spoke, now turning to Greyback. But that didn't mean that she had answered Rueger's question. She would love to get to know him better but she wasn't really sure if she would jump to dating right away. Did news travel that quickly that her mate was gone? Rueger couldn't have known that, right?
