 Well, at least Devil pretends to listen. I appreciate that, I suppose, to some extent. I offered something of an eye roll regardless, attention returned to the earth beneath my own snowy paws, ears pricked forward, searching for any indication of which way the creature had fled. I have no idea where he lives and truthfully I hardly care, yet if he was successful here I am entirely assured he will return. That is what cannibals do, true cannibals, return again and again to the place they lasted tasted blood. I can hardly claim to know the boy, yet I know my job and I have hunted such creatures for longer than any other wolf here. If he fed here, he will return, though when I hardly know. I snorted once more, one ear flicking as Devil spoke before the sound of another approaching saw my head lift, violet gaze fixating upon the towering, hulking creature, the largest wolf in Moladion I believe. Chance. Typical that Devil should sire some sort of….giant. Personally I blame Kiska, her blood always was….debatable, just as she is. Never liked the girl. Devil could have done better. For now however I let my gaze rest upon my nephew as he came, tattered left ear flicking towards him as he spoke, allowing myself a nod of greeting, content to return to tracking the fragments of scent that remained when the mention of my daughter’s name saw my eyes slice readily back towards him, a growl caught within my throat as my tail flicked in evident disdain. I have not seen my Aaliyah in over a year, no one has, her name unmentioned within the pack and I have no desire to hear it spoken. I cannot find my baby girl, I refuse to allow my mind to believe what is surely the truth, that Tobias did as we all had warned and turned upon her and yet still some part of myself refuses to believe this. She had been so sure, so sure of him and of herself, her children all that remains of my Littlest Angel. “Do not talk to me about my daughter.” I snapped the words towards him, eyes cutting briefly to Devil, the message clear enough. He could silence his son or a would do it for him. I hardly dislike chance, in fact, I find the boy rather…tolerable, though I have no desire to indulge such conversation today. Whatever thoughts I further had were interrupted by the approach of another, one distinctly familiar, my own head tilted slightly to the side, one eye lifting in mild amusement before I simply turned to face the dark female whom came forward to halt at my side. Alias, apparently, the female smelling strongly of Taviora and…trees. I’m have inclined to ask if she’s ever considered throwing herself at a few of them and opening the land up a bit, honestly such trees are hardly...useful to anything. I offered a dip of my head all the same, a slight smirk tracing my lips at the calling she offered. Hmm, yes, I was rather legendary wasn’t I. Her words confirmed what I had believed already, that this was indeed the place, head turning to look in the direction of Glorall. Would he move to another pack so quickly? Perhaps…..if he had been so successful at the first. My attention once more deviated to this…Alias, suspicious of her all the same and yet content to ignore it for now, nodding once more to the Taviora wolf. Evidently I have been declared leader of this gathering and really, it’s about time I had followers once more, I am a rather extraordinary king after all now aren’t I? “We have the numbers, we can send wolves that way, Diveen and Taviora are both in good standing with Glorall, perhaps-“ The sound of yet another saw my handsome head turn once more, old eyes falling back to Malina as she and Neveah moved into the gathering, her mention of my missing Trenus earning the girl an eye roll. Hmm, perhaps some of her spark has come back- good, I was starting to worry she’d lost her spine. Her evident disdain in Neveah’s presence was met with little more then one eye lifting slightly. “Your whatever I say you are, Malina, besides I am sure my former apprentice can teach my newest apprentice something, my daughter or not. Listen to her Neveah, Malina is perhaps the best I have trained.” I moved to look away, having no desire to offer Malina any further praise and really, I never was good at the emotional side of things, I have said what needs to be said, watching the girls move to walk away, the barest hint of a grin on my lips once more as they moved together. I have thought of Malina as my own for….a long time and to see Neveah with her now is….pleasing to me. The sudden shriek of ‘daddy’ saw my snowy form pivot in place once more, old limbs protesting at the sight of a rather…pregnant girl rushing towards Devil. Z….something, I forget. I merely turned away, content to let Devil bask in the glow of fatherhood, attention returning to Alias, Chance and the others now. “Is anyone here in contact with Glorall? Do any of you have a mate or imprint there? Someone we can ask about the creature? I am not trudging to that unholy watering hole without reason, if someone has connections there, we will use them. If someone would like to volunteer then say so, or else I will simply start delegating.” A final member made himself know, or at least, the reeking scent of fear managed to permeate my nostrils, head jerking towards the black blur as he took off, tearing deeper into Taviora, a growl rumbling within my chest. Really, the boy shouldn’t have run, his unfortunate resemblance through coat colour alone to the wolf we were hunting prompting the reaction he received, violet eyes narrowed. “I don’t give a damn which of you does it but someone bring me that boy, get after him, go.” Maybe he knew something, maybe he didn’t, we’d find out. Had I known he may very well have acted as the perfect lure for our target I might have even chased him myself, so unknowingly sending my newfound army into battle…. The Assassin King |
