Oooh a twist! Yes, Zalen has a mentor from CD, so let’s see where this goes Smile

Zalen retracted his paw as she began to speak, choosing to remain knelt as she told him of her woes. It seemed to him that this woman had quite a load to bear, and that in her rage she mistook him for the one she sought. Zalen could not blame her for wanted to seek revenge for her loved one, Zalen would have done the same had he been in her place. He could see in her face the love and pain she felt and he could tell that apologizing to him was difficult as well. It must have taken courage for this proud wolfess to bend a knee and submit to his will.

She stood on her own, and this small act, her not accepting his help up, solidified her pride. She was not weak, he knew this, and the physical conflict that they had enacted in could have easily gone her way rather than his. He respected her for what she was doing, and as she turned to leave he spoke, Wait, I remember when you were here last you mentioned the pack Aniwaya. Is that where you are from? his skin heated under his fur as he asked the question. His mentor and best friend was a member of Crimson Dreams and she had told him of the war between her pack and Aniwaya. Zalen being a loner fell outside the lines of this conflict and therefore had the luxury of neutrality, but he wished to hear the side of the story from someone of the Aniwaya pack.

The rain was now coming down heavily and the two Luperci were soaked to the bone. Zalen shook his head, sending drops around him like a halo. He would invite her to the warmth of his den, but first he wanted to hear what she had to say. If she admitted that she was a contributor to the suffering of his mentor, then he would see her off.
