Home. I remembered it, vaguely. She had been born in Asteraia, in the den on the cliff. Daddy had found it when he talked momma into moving to the pack with him. Then me and my brother were born, and thus, that had been our home. Until daddy started to disappear and then the alpha was changed, and momma didn't like the vibe the pack started putting out so we left. The past two years We'd been loners, up until last fall when momma died. Now, I was alone. I hadn't ever thought about finding another home, because I just had no idea how to do that.

Being invited to Iromar, to be a guest, it felt, more than uplifting. Knowing she would willingly let me live within her boundaries, without knowing me, was such a relief. It felt like a weight was finally lifting off of my shoulders, knowing I would be safe, finally. I tucked my head, listening to Avery assure me that she was sure. I still felt like I needed to do something, anything, to make sure I helped in some way.

A smile crossed my face, nodding as I listened to her, there was something about her that made me feel at ease, maybe it was that she was an alpha, but I had a feeling it was something else entirely. Not that I had any idea, but I felt more comfortable talking to her, than I did when I tried to reason with this myself.

When she told me what repayment I could do, I listened, intently. Nodding my head as she told me what she wanted, I was more than able. "I can, although, I can't say it will happen fast, but I will more than be happy to do that." I nodded, thinking for a moment. I felt, almost giddy, at the thought of a den. Shows how long I had been on my own.
