sorry it's so late!

Dixie chuckled softly when the crow spoke up once again, showing his intelligence and making her curious. Were all birds that smart? She’d have to think about that one the way back home. Birds might be a smart addition to Casa, as they would be great scouts to watch over the territory both during the day and night. Perhaps a nice little present for the alphas would be a pair of feathered friends. What type, she wasn’t sure, but it was a good idea in her mind and she’d stick to it.
Standing and stretching, the fluffy white female yawned and widely, trying to shake off the remnants of her little nap. While making new friends was great and all, she really wanted to get this done and get back home already. Even a few days was too long to be away from Wayne and her new family. Leaning over, she gave Duke a pat on the rump, rubbing over the claw mark scars imprinted in his hide from the mountain lion months back. The chestnut stallion snorted softly and tossed his head, impatient and wanting to move, irritated with just standing there for so long.
When Grace mounted her pretty mare again and began leading them to what Dixie hoped was the barn, she also began to speak. Anann, the Luna of Casa di Cavalieri, indicated that we might trade hay from AniWaya in return for a few of our stallions to breed in a while. She grinned, reaching out and petting her horse again, giggling softly. Duke here ain’t a good example of the stallions in my pack. He’s pretty scrawny…though he is very smart and tough. All of our other stallions are exceptionally huge, well muscled, smart and have damn good bloodlines. Hopefully Grace would see how this could strengthen their pack bonds and create more friendships. In the future when horse breeding became an issue, many Cavalieri luperci would have to travel to AniWaya for the matings to happen. During that time, Dixie was confident that friendships and strong bonds would be made.
