Oddly enough while Rhae was often on his mind he knew the girl was strong and would do fine without them. She might miss the company of the silvery hybrid and her two energetic children but she was a fighter and she was a dreamer. She'd probably already moved on and had twisted their sad tale into such an adventure that the soldiers and the sailors were rolling and slapping their knees. That wasn't the worry on his mind though, his mind seemed to linger more on a russet hued woman with crimson orbs. Ryan hadn't made their lives easy with her choice in Inferni but there was nothing he could do about that. She lived on one side of the line and he had chosen the other. DaVinci was quiet a moment longer before he asked. "What do you think Deuce would do if one of Inferni's members showed up on our border?" He was afraid of the answer but he knew that Ryan would come looking for him, he'd already told her where he and the children had settled. He knew she wasnt' stupid but she didn't know what type of wolves she'd be dealing with here in Phoenix Valley, not everyone was open to seeing their mixed heritage looming on the outskirts of anywhere.
DaVinci rubbed his fingers along Zana's ear again as he thought of his mother and her recent step down. He didn't really know what to think of what she'd done, she loved the pack with her whole heart and it was her greatest acomplishment. Jefferson's assurance of what all she had for her there didn't surprise him, and it shouldn't have surprised him either that Jefferson had somehow turned out to be another long lost relative. With a slight smug smirk he stated. "I told you she'd make you into a son or something somehow.." Though it turned out that Jefferson hasn't needed adopted into their family it was still a strange warped bit of amusement.
DaVinci turned his eyes to Jefferson as he asked, "Do you think she did the right thing?" He was doubtful of the choice his mother had made but there was nothing they could do about it except just sit there and wonder and wait to see what would happen. He really didn't like that idea but he could live with it, it wasn't like he didn't have enough to keep him busy as was.
Twisting to his side to watch in amusement as Jefferson seemed to turn into such an insecure and frightened creature when presented with something so small and helpless. He smiled quietly and let Jefferson take his time at examining the small squirming pup that had suddenly been abandoned by her mother onlt to fall into the hands of a bunch of men who didn't know what exactly they were doing but trying their best to make it through.
The sudden change in the normally smart mouth outspoken brute was surprising to DaVinci as the soft words slipped from his maw. DaVinci hadn't thought that anything could pierce through the hard shell that the male had build, he'd almost seen it crumble when he'd brought Iskata back from the forest but now it seemed that something so simple had ended the reign of power. Picking up a piece of straw and nibbling on it DaVinci chuckled. "She doesn't know any different..." he said as he gazed at the little girl that seemed to be trying to gnaw on the scarred up hybrid's fingers. Brushing his bangs back as he was met with such a new and unique side of his friend. "I thought love wasn't your thing.." he said as he smiled smuggly. "She's already got you wrapped around her little fingers doesn't she?" He knew that the baby did that, she'd done it to the whole family.. and yet her own mother seemed to fear the child now that everything she'd known had been taken from before her face. The blindness had been her downfall and she'd fallen faster than he'd ever thought was possbile.
He turned his face away from the private scene that seemed to be forming before him as Jefferson finally answered his questions on the clan. DaVinci's ears flicked back as he sighed and shook his head. "It's not about what they want us to be.. or who they want us to hate." He narrowed his eyes as he thought of the leader of Inferni, not once had Gabriel spoken of his choice in not coming to Inferni on that meeting.. it had been the choice of who he loved that had made the hybrid leader turn him away so brashly, not knowing his full story or reasons why. He just shook his head and admitted. "It's not the clan that draws me there.."
