The boy pretended to pout when his brother remarked about the earring, but a smile appeared on his lips afterward. He didn’t understand much about jewelry or clothing at his age, anyway, although it often looked good on others. Wearing a bunch of clothes or necklaces or whatever would only get in the way with running and shifting and hunting, after all! He didn’t think that wearing pants in lupus form would work out.
Skoll nodded uncertainly, although he knew that Kable wasn’t his full brother anyway; his father wasn’t the King, but someone else. Would he feel different if he were Vigilante’s son? Then again, Liam was, and he didn’t really strike the boy as royalty. Maybe it did rest in the mind more than the blood anyway.
He nodded at the reassurance that he could be a king someday. He knew that, now he was of shifting age, it wouldn’t be much longer before he moved out of the puppy rank—but still the title of prince would remain until he accomplished something great. He didn’t want to take over the Court, necessarily, as that meant his father wouldn’t lead anymore, but…
The sunlight fell on his face, and he sighed at the scents of the sea and spring. “Definitely,” he replied, butting his brother on the shoulder with his wild-maned head and grinning affectionately.
