Whitefish River Talk about backseat fishing

Relief flooded her when Evergreen said that she was more than welcome to stay with him and his group. And that of course, they would keep an eye out for any suspicious wolves and her friends. "I-I'd rather stay here, with you guys. Thank you...Evergreen." This would be a new start for her, just what she needed.

She stepped closer to rest her chin against the side of his neck in a gesture of gratefulness. Withdrawing after a moment, she shook her head and sighed. "I didn't think I'd see you again...but I'm glad I did. Maybe...it was a sign." That this was where she was meant to be, in the company of her friend. Time would tell how she flourished in his growing pack. With a tired smile she turned and let him lead her back to Liri, where they had been fishing at the riverside.
