The winter winds did nothing but ruffle his thick black saddled pelt. He felt not the bite of the cold nor the sharpness of the air. His fur was double layered all the better to withstand below freezing temperatures without the slightest discomfort. He was of the harsh north, hardy and resilient. His scars were not fortunate, there and only there did he feel the sting as the fur had not yet grown over to protect them. They lay across his snout bare and pink and vulnerable. He clenched his jaw as a blast of wind washed over him. It ruffled his tail a bit which swayed in the slightest. It was a few moments before he heard the answering to his call. His heart leapt and he rose his head swiftly to peer at who was approaching. It was not Caspa’s voice that rang in his charcoal rimmed ears and he became suddenly wary.

His eyes on the horizon he looked hard before seeing his first glimpses of another form striding towards him. As the male grew closer and closer Augustus grew anxious. When he noticed the other was bipedal his fur bristled. He cut off a growl that had been working in his throat so abruptly he nearly choked. Nothing could be seen of his near mishap except the workings of his throat. To others it would look as if he were merely swallowing. He stiffened, but as the other male came close enough to see his face he tried hard to mask his disproval. He hunched his upper body downwards, eyes on the ground. His tail slunk to curl towards his hind legs, though not enough to touch his belly. He was seeking acceptance, not being reprimanded. As much as the Luperci disquieted him, only made worse by the fact that he was clothed, Augustus was determined not to mess this up. He needed this pack far more than they needed him, and had to found worthy.

The authority’s voice greeted him, but his eyes never strayed to look upon him at this close proximity. I was informed that your borders were open by one of your pack. I wish to winter here. He chose not to elaborate, and kept his words short. He did not raise his head even as his deep vocals conveyed his request. He waited with bated breath for the male to reply.
