Cerberus nodded at Shandom’s sympathetic words, and then listened intently as the two conversed, his head bowed all the while. He was elated to find that they approved of him, that they believed him to be a strong asset to their family. He hadn’t been viewed in such away since he’d lived with his parents, and in a way it provided a sense of bitter-sweet nostalgia for the young hybrid. At the final decision and solidifying nudge from the alpha, Cerberus finally allowed his gaze to lift and his body to relax into a standing position, however keeping his tail tucked and his ears semi-flat even still. Zalen had called him brother; he had a family now. He was no longer some useless loner forced to battle with Mother Nature for a place to sleep and food to eat. It felt…good.
Excitement coursed through the coywolf as he tossed an exuberant smile at Shandom, and then finally turned to follow Zalen. His steps were careful still, as if in disbelief that he was actually crossing over onto their territory to meet those he’d call his brothers and sisters. He hoped, however, that addressing the others by such titles wasn’t mandatory, for that’d make things awfully awkward with Ciara. But he didn’t dwell on the thought, as his enthusiasm wouldn’t permit him to. A new sense of duty welled up inside Cerberus - he would prove himself worthy in this alpha’s eyes, and Shandom’s even. He would have to learn how to suppress his foolish ways when they weren’t appropriate, but he could handle that if it meant progressing to a rank of power and nobility. Already he could tell that this family would be different than the one he was born into, particularly because he had responsibilities now beyond fetching dinner for his father. It was time to make dear Geoff proud.

Love me always
