Border-marking was a day to day duty. The luperci took it as seriously as she took the rest of her job, considering it a life or death task. The last time that a canine had ignored their borders on her and Teddy’s watch, they had been killed for their intrusion. It had ended up being some sort of a misunderstanding, but the fact remained that the male had come deep into her lands and had been sneaking around their denning area, regardless of what Kaena and Gabriel had insisted.
She could only believe others so much; many canines spun webs of lies as easily as the truth, a fact she was well aware of. The Angela had told many a lie in her own lifetime, especially in situations in which she’d needed to look good to protect herself or her family in the cult pack. And she would lie again at her own convenience if she needed to here.
The shifted wolf looked toward the sky, stretching her arms up into the air before allowing them to fall back down at her sides. It was a warm enough day outside; she was almost sweating by the time she got around to the northwestern portion of their hilly territory. Naniko reached down to pick up some snow from the ground, melting it in her hands and lapping up the water as she looked out over the borderlands. So far, the day had been very uneventful. But maybe that would change.
