She would have not denied the girl entry into the pack, the family. After all, the flattery stroked Azalea’s ego and she was instantly grinning wickedly at the words Selene spoke. Plus, the girl seemed to have some skills she could contribute to Anathema. If only for the sake to gain strength in numbers, she would be allowed to stay. "Wonderful," the girl said in response to Selene’s words, letting gold eyes travel from the Iblis over to Akita. The only thing left was to perform the blood sharing ritual, and then Akita would be always considered a part of the Anathema family.
And yet, before Azalea had the chance to say much more, Naniko came upon the scene. Though Azalea was a sub-leader of the pack, Naniko was the true leader. Despite her desperate hunger for power, the coal colored girl had a strange, but unique relationship with Naniko. She took a step back, letting the Angela take the spot light. Naniko would take over from here, Azalea assumed, and so she turned back to head into the caves. Stopping just inside, however, Azalea let her golden gaze find Naniko as the blade of her knife came down across her finger. As long as the girl was willing to offer her own hand in order to combine blood, then everything would go according to plan and Anathema would have its newest member.
Azalea grinned to herself, before turning to head into the maze of tunnels underground. She would continue to work on the notes she had been preparing when Juju had found her, but the thought of a new member gave the girl a new sense of confidence in her pack.
