Her first thought wasn't that it couldn't happen, but was giving herself reassurance that it shouldn't happen again with her second go around as a pack Queen. Everything Kahlan said was completely justified and correct. And the way she talked like she had experience, because she did. Made Milo want her more as a higher rank. "What do you know about me exactly? We are strangers, you and I, and yet you wish to instill me with a sense of responsibility and have me claim some sort of role within the pack. Are you this trusting with all wolves you have met only one day before?" she stopped for a second to think as she spoke. Her ear twitching and herself lost in thought before finally speaking up. It's not so much trust as it is wanting somebody with experience in other packs; as you stated when you joined, you've been part of other packs, even been a healer. I'm not asking you to heal, I'm just asking to consider taking a bit more responsibility than the others. Do slightly more, not very much. Just be able to accept others in if I'm not around, be able to take over; with the help of Kirastasia, if I so happen to get in trouble or something so happens to happen to me. And when the pack starts to thrive maybe even mentor a pup if that's something you wouldn't mind. Milo didn't know any other way to explain it. Hoping Kahlan would understand and would accept

And if you so decide that eventually you don't want a rank, you may step down at any point in time. She offered a small smile to the lass and let her plume sway behind her in a cheerful manner. It was completely up to Kahlan in the end, but she was hoping she could sway her otherwise.
