321.
The man desired for her to eat first, and so Nayru complied, knowing it easier to go along with the flow rather than fight against it. Still she felt her subservient to the others, their guardian and servant. Yet with her rank came some status, and Nayru knew that there was no denying that. As much as she respected Conor, the others were growing to respect her and Nayru took it all in very gracefully. Lowering her head she ate the parts she liked best: the soft stomach, the fat off the hind quarters and then her little frame was filled up and she pulled away, giving the rest of, and most of, the kill to Saluce.
As he ate ruby eyes watched him. The man had been forgiven for leaving—Nayru understood now that he had not been of sound mind and he had made his amends. Although their previous friendship wasn’t quite regained, they had come to an understanding. When tensions got too tight between the two, one of the other usually excused themself and in this way they kept peace. Mostly. Saluce had been ever dedicated to the pack, second perhaps only to Saul who had never left her side. They deserved to know what was brewing, although Nayru knew it was a tricky subject to bring up.
“Change is in the air Saluce, have you sensed it?” Perhaps he had. Perhaps he had noted her recent absences as she scouted out the mountainous territories to the north. Perhaps he had sense the discontentment of his alpha and some of the other members. Perhaps he had sensed the struggling ghosts that Nayru would soon banish from the hearts and minds of the Dahlian members. Or perhaps all of that was in her head, but the girl wished to know if the great brute was in on any of the secrets she seemed to perpetually carry around with her.
