The woman really hasn't expected Cercelee to show up at her doorstep, especially considering that she should have been at Haku's cabin where she had lived the whole time after the puppies had been born, but she was furious with the male (when wasn't she) and she didn't want a thing to do with the bastard. She lowered her eyes as she apologized for the harsh snap she'd made when she hadn't realized who was approaching. "Sorry.." her voice was still cold but when wasn't Firefly ever a little bit cold towards the whole world.
She wrapped her tail across her paws and returned her gaze to the ground as she sighed softly as her leader joined her upon the porch. She shifted slightly, giving the woman more room, or atleast the appearance of more as she flattened her ears back at the question the Rosea had asked. "No.." she said with a soft growl. She hadn't planned for so many of the pack to run off to try and trace the boys in a heartbeat but it was even more disheartening to see how quickly the numbers dwindled off and now it was like an afterthought to the pack, atleast to the mother who knew exactly where they were.
Firefly turned her brilliant orbs back to the leader as she asked, "Do you think I'm a terrible mother?" For what she had done. For leaving them with a father that had wandered off forgetting about his children even being in the same house, not even checking to see if their mother was with them. No, that wasn't what she was really asking. Cercelee didn't even know the truth, the real crimes the priestess had committed, but to her the crime was nothing but for the protection of her children. They were better off away from their father and safer clear of his hodgepodge of families he'd gathered within the packlands.
