The soon-to-be yearling looked at the precious child with kind eyes. She was such as sweet, yet misunderstood girl. She looks prettier when she smiles, she decided while nuzzling briefly the younger pup.Amelie knew how rough things had been for her when she was even smaller, the teen had even seen the abuses of the other pups (mainly Junior) firsthand. And it was that what made Amelie feel some kind of link to the pale girl, as a kid Amelie had been victim of various types of bullying by her brothers.
" SaΔna you're my hero", she whispered to encourage the girl and congratulat her on her brave act. She had brought Osprey back, even after all the bites and scuffles she had put her through. Just then another familiar face settled beside them, Kisu, the girl's true father. Another thing that bounded Amelie and SaΔna together is that they were both adopted. Or partially since the pale girl still had a living parent. The teen smiled at the man when he displayed his affection for his daughter, she had never had a father. But seeing how they interacted was a lovely sight.
Suddenly Peregrine's voice demanded their attention so Amelie turned, not before giving a warm smile to both father & daughter. Amelie tuned out the rest of the wolves around her when Peregrine spoke about the female beside him. Curiosity had been gnawing at her insides since she walked into the clearing. She was surprised to see Peregrine speak so fondly of a stranger, though he then clarified that he was his new lover --and Beta. Innevitably Amelie's eyes fell on Hawkeye what was she to make of all of this?
Oh but wait, he was not done.
What came next out of Peregrine's mouth hit the young girl like a bucket of cold water. What? He was with Lasher too? What exactly did that mean? Amelie had never been exposed to homosexuality and really the whole concept was more than she could handle. Her eyes widened as she searched the faces of all those gathered, wanting to see how others would react to these.
Many, her mother included, didn't say a word or seemed disturbed by his confession. Junior even cheered and echoed her father's command. Other however, Kisu for example didn't look to thrilled about it. Amelie didn't know what to make of it, so she just sat there with a deadpan expression filling her face.
