Brilliant blue rose to gaze upon the intruder that invaded his privacy. The Lilium knew this was a rather fresh face. The last members he had greeted had so far proved to be a big disappointment, and the approaching brute had already managed to disappoint the sub-leader of Dahlia. The announcement of the fresh mateship between the pack’s caregiver and the newcomer had not managed to escape his ears, and the man had been stamped as useless in the Soul man’s book. However, there was some curiosity present. The Dahlian party was far from over, but the other man had decided to make an early leave. For a moment the brown man pondered if the lower ranked member had followed him, but a quick glance at the drink in the other man’s hands soothed the paranoia. Haku was positive there had not been any of that particular brand present near the fire, so the other had obviously gone somewhere and found it before coming his way.
The Lilium only stared at the other. He lifted the opened bottle of smooth white wine and let it embrace his taste buds before it left a warm and comfortable trace down his throat. This was an evening devoted to celebration and merriness, but it was hard to keep up a smiling mask when he originally was a type that loathed such gatherings. He could hold hunts and meetings, but only as long as causality kept its distance. Haku’s intense gaze was not hinting that the other male should get the fuck off his grass, though it was not directly inviting either. Haku could always give second chances if an individual could prove itself useful for future achievements, but this Drey had to make the impression himself. Haku had no wish to help him on the way.
