It didn't take long for the rest of the pack to arrive. Well, at least most of the rest of the pack. He noted that his grandmother was absent. As Salem joined them he returned his playful nip and smiled warmly as Mati shouldered her way in between them. The last wolves to arrive were ones he hadn't met before. He stored their images in his mind to be sure to introduce himself later. He was the Commander's son, he should know all of the members of the pack.



Then Savina started the meeting. His jade eyes grew wide as she said that she and uncle Kansas were going to have babies. So that was why her tummy was so big? How interesting! He couldn't help but give a happy little yip at the news. He would have new playmates! Not only that, but since he was older he could teach them stuff as well! Like he had taught Valkyrie his question game. He wondered when the puppies would come out of Savina's tummy. Hopefully soon!



Haven listened attentively as she stressed the importance of their relations with the other pack. The pup followed her gaze to the patterned man. Had he done something bad in another pack? But the next announcement distracted him completely from that subject. As his ivory mother said that his other mother was being promoted to the leader ranks along with her and Savina. His tail wagged furiously behind him and he moved closer to Anu and put his paws up on her back. "Yay! Congrats mommy!" he exclaimed, planting a sloppy lick on her face.

i gotta be my own boss no matter what the cost

They all gathered in the large room, beasts among the fixtures of man. How odd it would have looked in a human’s eye to see so many wolfs seating so properly, circled around the leaders and within the walls of the Manor. But such thoughts were beyond the little Church wolfess, nose eyes and mind far to engrossed in the family that gathered around her mother and aunt.

Overly excited, Mati almost missed the news that Savina shared. Violet eyes watched her closely, noticing the difference in her color, the way the purple of her ink colored coat shown more then the rest of the dark indigo hues. She was likely the only one to notice such a change when her round belly and scent were such a dominating presence, but it was there.

Not paying much attention to the political things, the adolescent only perked again when the name of her second mother floated to her ears. Haven spoke her excitement for Anu, and she could only look on with a wagging tail.

Moose had been fortunate enough to have already been informed about Savina's pups in his meeting with several of the males in the pack. He had learned this glorious news while exploring the caves. Inwardly, he chuckled at his surprise when Jazz arrived, larger than life in his partially transformed state. This repeat of good news was also followed by the announcement that Anu had been promoted. It was no wonder; from what the grey male knew, he understood this to be an excellent decision.

The excitement in the room made Moose wag his tail, its fluffyness sweeping clean a small section of the floor. The Wild cheered his excitement at both announcements with a short, happy bark. So much had been announced so far; could there be more?

Amber eyes scanned the room, and he mouthed congrats to the happy pair and to Anu as well. Whether or not they could understand his mouthings (his accent affected that as well, making his equally difficult to understand, even without speech) he was unsure. These same oculars paused on the husky that Savina had glanced at in her monologue while discussing pack relations. Moose had been gone from the pack, but obviously something had occured. He leaned over to Kansas and Ehno to inquire. "Whit's the 'usky doon ta 'urt tha relations wi' tha o'er packs?"

The excitement abuzz in the room was contagious, even for one who could be fairly skilled at keeping his emotions dampened to a neutral tone. While Legion could be the aloof sort when it came to the inner workings of his mind, one of the very few things to crack and open the hard shell over his heart was the young ones. And the promise of new pups was a blessing, indeed. While it wasn't really news to him, his nose and his eyes could easily tell any wolf present that she was with child, he smiled broadly and dipped his maw in recognition of the official announcement thereof. "Congratulations and may all of them prove healthy and well, Dark Lady." Again, he slipped into his common way of nicknaming rather than using ones true name.

However, with that announcement made, he perked his ears attentively at the rest. The first was a warning, and considering his recent treading of the line with Dahlia de Mai, the alabaster male kept his mouth shut. He knew what it could mean...but predicting the future was something he wasn't going to do. And he couldn't promise to keep his nose out of things....but his silent train of thought was shattered with the next announcement. A rise in rank. He hardly knew any of them, so the name rang no bells...but as she spoke her acceptance of the role, his gaze wandered to the femme and nodded lightly, thinking that the leaders knew what they were doing, and had made a worthy choice. He noted the blue-eyed grey femme, denoting her now as a figure of rank and due respect.

His eyes also drifted to the husky whom Savina seemed to pointedly assess with a derisive gaze when earlier mentioning the intolerance of pack rivalry. Hmmmm. Apparently this one had something to do with it, and he wondered if it would be a wise thing to seek him out later and learn of whatever transgression he may have made. The knowledge may prove worth the knowing.
