His hopes were dashed almost instantly as Jefferson introduced himself. The tone of this alphas voice was like a claw to the face, but he quickly caught himself. It took every ounce of will power he had to not react in a way that would cause things to take a negative turn. No, he knew a simple twitch of his lip , or wrong flick of the tail could be disastrous to any chances he had at joining a pack. So he would have to keep his unwavering expression despite the emotional tug of war that was being waged inside his head. Kami knew his past experience with an alpha was just another obstacle, something else he would have to overcome if he were to survive in a pack. Thought the realization of this didn't ease his mind any as he once again dipped his head to the scarred wolf, his eyes lingering only slightly before dropping to the ground once again.
" As Noah said, I'm here looking to join your pack." he said bluntly, making sure to keep any emotion from his speech. While he may have been looking at Jefferson's paws, his mind was sizing up the leader of this pack. Two of the first members he had met seemed to be injured fairly severely which was a causing him a bit of concern. What could they be doing that would lead to those kinds of injuries? Kami was not afraid of a fight by any means, but it made him wonder what kind of leader Jefferson actually was. The marking on Kami's tail almost seeming to burn as the memory of his exile came to the front of his mind. Going against the will of an alpha had consequences, regardless of the reasons behind it. A lesson he had learned all to well once before, but he did not regret it.
With the initial knee jerk reaction to Jefferson's words quickly fading from his mind Kami couldn't help but notice Noah and Ookamis reactions. They seemed to certainly respect Jefferson, and in a way that wasn't earned through fear or brutality. He was sure there was more to this Alpha then the gruff exterior he could see and hear, but only time would tell. Respect was not the same as obedience, and one did not always guarantee the other. . .
