Tawny followed Saul into the main room, the scent of cooked and raw meat making her tummy grumble. Thinking back, she realized that she hadn’t had a good meal for a few days, simply snacking on jerky strips every now and then to curb the growing hunger. Those habits were the ones that she needed to break and grow out of. Now that she was in a pack, where the others would help to protect and take care of her well being, she had to start thinking about becoming healthier. She had a duty to these people, though her art and jewelry wasn’t that great and didn’t make much of an impact on anyone, she felt obligated to shower gifts upon them all.
The little woman smiled at Eclipse and waved a little bit at the girl before going to the back corner of the room and crawling up into a big broken chair. At one time it would have been plush and good looking, but now it was dirty and one of the legs was broken, making it lean awkwardly. She yawned widely and curled up on the large cushion, making her body fit easily and watching as other people began to show up. So far it was all females and young ones at that. It made her feel a bit more comfortable, as the only male was Saul and she trusted him completely. The females though…were not trusted nearly as much. She was more nervous around women and girls than males, and always had been. Her mother and the other female members of her birth pack had been the ones to abuse her the most, causing the notion that females were just plain mean to become ingrained in her mind.
Lying there watching them gather; she felt the stirring in her heart and mind, the need to be a part of a family. The girl craved contact and interaction, but she was too nervous about pursuing it that she ended up isolating herself from others. Sighing softly to herself, she closed her eyes and just listened to the sounds of their voices, taking comfort in the fact that she had been invited and was thought of by someone that didn’t wish to hurt her.
