Silver Creek The Hunting Grounds

Small, and inexperienced, Turmeric wished he had spoken up to guard the pups before another had - and he had caught Fury’s eye on him when the idea was first spoken - but he had been too slow, and the thought of watching these children seemed almost as difficult as felling their prey.

He’d rather have his own blood on his head.

But Vex’s lack of instruction troubled him, and as the others charged after the lead, he sought leadership in his mother, who he knew had hunted bison before. Staying alongside her, he would listen to her instruction. He trusted his life with her, not so with Vex.
