She could already hear the shuffling in the jungle behind her to warn of Rougaru's impending approach and the mare could only smirk, knowing her wolf was being kept on his toes once more by her determination to reach new visitors first. Well, this was one way to keep him chasing without being able to swim to the Crossing right now. At least, she knew she could still demand his attention through other means. Meanwhile, she didn't miss the way the stallion before her was disappointed on her approach. Was he expecting someone else? She tilted her head, searching his expression intensely. So he must be looking for someone then. That would explain the agitation written in every muscle on his body.

Alpha was steady on her heels and as antagonistic as always but he knew the moment her ears pinned and her lips curled that she was at the end of her rope for now. His own ears pinned immediately in response and he chews his lips in an apology but they both knew by now he didn't mean it. The colt would soon be back to his ways in no time, but he should give her a breather for the moment, at least. Long enough to check out this lead stallion of another herd. It seemed she wasn't the only curious one. Once his disappointment passed, the taller stallion wasted no time in checking her out. She stood straight and proud, her tail held aloft as her two toned eyes dared him to find anything lacking. She knew she wasn't tall and graceful or big and powerful, but she didn't need any of that. She was agile and quick, like the snake her Wolf liked to call her. She was deadly in her own right.

When he cocked his hip, she flicked an ear in his direction, her way of acknowledging his action in appreciation. She didn't know the full history of how Rougaru and this stallion knew each other but perhaps she would ask at a later time. The way he regarded Rougaru as he approached was taken into account as well. It wasn't the look of a trusting friend, but rather a wary neighbor. Her brow arched as she looked between the two stallions for a minute, making sure of where she needed to be in this encounter in case the safety of Alpha would be in jeopardy. She would risk herself but she would never risk her children. For the moment, things were on the edge, it seemed, but she would stand by to see it through unless they tipped.

Rougaru came in to introduce the stallion, calling him Solomon from the Cove. Monster dipped her head in acknowledgement, though her eyes turned back to the painted stallion when he corrected her King, saying he was now King of the whole island. Her brows lifted, clearly impressed, though she tilted her head more toward Rougaru, a single ear flicked in his direction, wondering how he would react to the news. For the moment, she was silent, listening as Solomon then said that their agreement still stood unless there were changes on Rougaru's side and that he came looking for a mare. Monster gave nothing away, only turning to her King for his answer. She knew there had been some unfamiliar faces in Paradise recently, but she didn't know their names yet so even if the mare in question was here, she wouldn't know it. Rougaru liked to hoard the new mares first and gain their trust before she was able to get her own introductions in.

The fleabitten grey mare was the first to come to mind, though she didn't even know her own name so Monster wouldn't know if she was the mare he sought anyway. Her brows did furrow in concern when he mentioned that she left a son behind. As a mother, she hated the idea of any child feeling abandoned by their mother, whether by accident or on purpose. Her head turned once more to Solomon when he started to describe the mare and she pricked her ears to listen. The sudden sadness in his eyes spoke to her of his affection for her and that was in his favor. She gave her full attention and wondered to herself if she had seen a mare matching her description lately, though it was usually from a distance when they first came into Paradise. Solomon turned to Rougaru, asking if he'd seen her and Monster was content to do the same, letting her King be the voice on this matter. She had more investigating to do herself.
