sorry for the wait
Sapphire eyes watched as Lucia chewed ferociously on her rag doll. Kiara was worried about how the sudden change in lifestyle would affect the young puppy psychologically. Although New Dawn was a "feral" pack and lived like how Kiara's birth pack did, they weren't Lucia's birth pack. The parklands were foreign to the puppy and she her brother had disappeared. The young mother couldn't help but wonder how Lucia felt about that. Did the puppy blame Kiara, did she hate her mother for moving without Kohaku? What did Lucia think about the luperci? Did she wish to become one or even realize that she wasn't one? Would Kiara's own daughter hate her when she realized the truth? All of these questions plagued the white female as she watched her daughter play innocently.
A howl broke through the arctic female's train of thought and white ears lifted hight to listen. The caller was just outside of the communal den and specifically asked for Kiara and Lucia. Curious, Kiara stood and strolled outside. Lucia, who had grabbed her doll by one of its limbs, followed her in her mother's wake with a huge grin and curious eyes. Lucia, although shy at first, seemed to have gotten used to pack life and had opened herself up to the other wolves.
Sanding before the den was a golden wolf, black fur coloring the female's back and outlining her figure. Surprisingly, the female smelled less of the pack than Kiara would have expected. Even so, she had to be a wolf of New Dawn. To Kiara's knowledge, outsiders were not allowed on the pack lands. Lucia, who didn't recognize the female, ducked between her mother's legs but didn't hide completely. The young mother, unsure of how to treat the stranger kept her posture relaxed. She would have been more submissive if Lucia wasn't beneath her. "Hello, I don't believe we have met. I'm Kiara and this is Lucia. You called for us?"
