It was good that the Alpha of Iromar was beginning to calm down. It would not do anyone well if she continued to act out in such a way. Tick Tock was aware that her hormones were slowly becoming a hassle, she was much crankier than usual and she did not need someone to push her, on purpose or on accident, into such a vicious state. The parasites inside her were increasing her need to protect her own and she would not allow Aithne to put her in such a dismantle state. She did not need to go unhinged right now. As she stood in front of Aithne her dark eyes roamed over her tense form taking note of the subtle signs of Aithne beginning to wind down from her earlier outburst. The need to exclaim she was right was enough to make her marred façade twitch. Indeed she was right, how could she be wrong? That an alliance was now agreed upon seemed so entirely right, even if the process began for the one seeking out her own flesh and blood. It was Aithne’s question about the red-eye prisoner that caused her head to tilt slightly in a puzzled manner. Fiammetta would be leaving soon and she was hardly a nuisance, as she had expected her to be, rather Fiammetta was the perfect example of what a prisoner should be and act like. With a smooth reply she showed her candor side as she answered Aithne’s inquiry.
“Tobias wanted her and she has not done anything to me that required her to be a prisoner. Tobias and her had a fight, he won, and so she became a prisoner. She is not a bother to me so I do not see why you cannot talk with her, but winter is almost over and her time with us will be done soon.”
She was actually rather disappointed that she had not been able to spend some more time with Fiammetta. That night she found the girl submerged in the thick mud and shallow waters the Monster had saw something that was quite familiar. There was a reason why she attacked Fiammetta. It wasn’t necessary to kill her. No, no that was not the reason. No, she wanted to give something to Fiammetta. It was just her luck that Tobias had an interest in the she-wolf, and she found it would be much easier to converse with the girl, but sadly her time as being Alpha kept her time busy. She had to teach Cuirass skills that would help him achieve his desire to be a strong warrior, she had to keep an eye on all the yearlings, keep the pack fed, and keep a special eye on Tobias. Any spare time for herself was a luxury that she was unable to spend. Now that their business was done and the alliance assured the dark furred woman began to turn around, but as she walked away she paused for a moment. Turning her head around she stared at Aithne for a long moment before finally uttering a simple warning.
“Aithne...Raven is my daughter...keep a close eye on her. She may turn and not be herself any longer.”
With that being said she shuffled off heading towards her den for a well-deserved rest.
