OOC Forward dated. My apologies if this is crap, running out of muse for this guy >.< WC: 379
The Epsilon was on edge, but when wasn't he? There'd been another run in with the blonde dog. None of this would have happened had they come to him. It was well known around the pack that the northern male was unpredictable at best, and downright unapproachable. Even his mate feared him when he was angry. But they should have notified they were leaving in the very least. How he hated having to check up on all the of them constantly. Each morning running the scents through his brain to distinguish which were freshest, how many of his pack mates had slept in the den that night. Fortunately he was up earlier than most, which made the job easy. He could often just glance over his brothers and sisters, many of whom he'd spoken to only in passing. Which reminded him, there was one woman who'd not been among them. The brown pelted female with the pups newly shifted pups. The pack had not too long ago been abuzz speaking of the happy occassion. Augustus couldn't see what was so special about it, not being a shifter himself. There were so many pregnant females in New Dawn now, it seemed they would soon be overflowing with whelps. They already were what with Kiara's daughter Lucia and the young whelp Tharin had rescued...The one his mate wanted them to care for...He still wasn't all to happy with her.
His side ached where the moose had speared him, but the wound had healed under his mates loving care. The weather seemed to be bringing out the dull ache. He sat on the border, trying to lap at the mended flesh, tiny hairs beginning to grow over it to remedy the bald patch that had resulted. He couldn't quite reach, however, much to his annoyance. He sighed and lowered himself into the grass. The seaons would begin to change soon, a month or so and his blasted shedding would begin. His skin had already begun to irritate him and soon he was rolling around to relieve his itchy pelt. His tongue lolled from his open jaws as he sighed with relief. It didn't occur to him how comical he might appear, he was simply scratching an itch, and it felt oh so good.
