He agrees with her to an extent. Sure, his future doesn’t have to be akin to his past but even though his past was littered with so much pain and suffering that’s all he’s ever known. He chuckles at her reply though.

“I would be quite the guerrero, no?” He chuckles at her comment of him being a fine warrior. He definitely agrees with that.

He’s slightly taken aback by the forwardness of her confession. He’s not surprised, he can see the way she looks at him. He likes it to say the least, but he feels incomplete to reside in a pack. Or to do it just yet really. The experience could wait he decides. He wants to explore and take his own claim. Though what the female speaks of and promises of this new pack life is convincing, but he’s always been hard to please.

“Lo siento, cariña.” He begins softly. “I cannot join your pack. I have so much to discover yet. I do believe your pack might not be the right one for me.” He chuckles. “So docile, I’d presume?” He quirks a brow at her. “The only way I can be led by someone other than myself is for them to prove to me that they can lead.
