Even before Siku's voice penetrated her clam Nayru knew of the woman's approach. The foot falls and her scent alerted the alpha before anything else could and the patch work woman did not choose to open her eyes to the early signs. Even as Nayru mumbled her own greeting in reply to Siku's, the woman's ruby gaze did not lift lids to made eye contact. The so soft mutter, "Siku…" was made blindly. It was only when Siku's soft inquiry made Nayru aware of her own confusion and hurt did her eyes slide open to appraise Siku visually. The all white woman, a few months older than Nayru, as in some ways more childlike and innocent. Nayru breathed in slowly, taking on what she knew to be her task.

"He is confused." They did not need to specify whom they spoke of, and partly Nayru didn't even want to speak his name. She had not seen Bris since the man's departure and had no idea how Eclipse dealt with such abandonment. Gideon too would probably be upset, Conor had been his guardian as well. Yet Nayru could not allow herself to feel the sting that Conor had caused all of them, she had to be a pillar for them. No hurt or regret was even hinted to in her tone, and her calm gaze lacked any uncertainties. "He is confused and we'll be here if he comes back. If not, we'll still be here." What else could she say to Siku, still new enough to be settling in and now one of the few wolves they all depended on up and gone?
