Northstar Vale Right Beside You

He seemed affronted at her questioning, and it stirred a frown to her brows. She knew nothing of Mereo and was one of four adults within the pack ranks—one of two which was not a new parent and likely riddled with exhaustion. If his feelings had been ruffled by her questioning, she couldn’t find it within her to feel bad—her loyalty was to Tamar, her pups and her mate.

As such, the man seemed to pose no thread, and the silver arrow scoffed at his words, his motion to bend down and take the food away from her one question coming across to her as that of a pup.

Her eyes swept over him once more, and she shook her muzzle. “Tamar needs the nourishment. I would not turn food away from her.” She paused, waiting to see if he would object again to this statement. Perhaps, his assumed moodiness was that he was fatigued from his travels. She simply had no clue where this Mereo was.

“But I don’t think it wise to place a cache near our borders. We’re only four adults strong—I wouldn’t want it to draw the wrong attention.” She paused, grim at the prospect of sharing such information with another she did not know. “If Mereo is a sister pack to Epoch as you say, I’ll escort you within our borders and you can deliver the gift to an area closer to Tamar and her mate. Perhaps one of them will be able to venture over to say hello.” She was tempted to try to simply take the rabbits herself and deliver them to the nursing mother with a message, but there was no way she would be able to do such a thing by herself. This Reyson was indeed capable and much larger than herself.
