Exit Liffey! Sorry for the hold up :)

Things happened in a slow motion blur from the moment Redshank and Cypress took off towards the bear. Rannoch shouted after them, then spun to bark orders at the rest of them. Liffey was unable to tear her eyes from the beast lumbering towards her cousin, even as her alpha spoke her name. Only when his face was suddenly in front of hers did she find herself able to focus on him. His words were terrifying, mostly for the fact that she knew what they implied. He was asking her to lead the others, which meant he wouldn't be able to, which meant he was about to do something terribly dangerous.

Liffey felt the touch against her cheek and leaned into it, dipping her head to run her crown along his jawline with a soft whine. The usual fear she felt of letting onto the feelings she had for him was gone completely - replaced by fear of a much different kind. She lifted her eyes to drink one last look at his handsome face before obediently turning and racing back to the rest of the pack to carry out his orders, forcing herself to focus on this task to keep herself from looking back as he ran to risk his life for the pack.
