(260)Oh snap. Big misunderstanding from Anatole right now.


While AniWaya valued the skills of the two-legged shape, Anatole saw no reason why his talent should be given less quarter. He therefore did not recognize the subconscious claim of the coyote before him, and his muzzle crinkled in an unfriendly display. They were both apprentices, regardless, and he had seen no use in the crying man since that first meeting. He had tried; he had spoken to many and even returned his kills to the Tribe. Why then, did this blood-traitor think he had any right to appear in such a manner? Despite the rising tension between them, Anatole remained locked solidly where he was. If this newcomer wanted to test him, he would strike him down; and he would not be the aggressor.

Yet before he had a chance to open his mouth another figure appeared. She too was white, skinny, clad in clothing. The wind told him all he needed to know; this was Matteo’s woman. A weak, beaten woman. His mind instantly assumed such thing by her posture in reference to her mate, and the fur along his spine bristled. Green eyes blazed against a black mask, furious because of this assumption. Why else would any free woman behave in such a manner? It baffled him to even consider an option beyond what he now imagined lay out before him.

Anatole pulled his lips back from his teeth, but he did not yet advance. “You alright, woman?” He did not remove his eyes from the coyote, but his attention was torn. What had happened to her?
