Both wolves feel into an almost uncomfortable silence. Both wrapped up in the torment of their minds as they warred against their own thoughts. Had he been able to read her thoughts, he would have realized that they were very similar to his own. He was disappointed that Cyanide had been given to Valhalla. He truly did believe that each wolf had a right to come and go as they pleased, but they would suffer consequences for their actions. The fact that she carried valuable information about Tortuga had completely slipped his mind. He felt like a damn fool. Nnoitra would chide at him for such stupidity on his part. Then Nnoitra's loss to Chrysanthe hadn't helped matters at all. Valhalla would come for Neo, and when they did it wasn't going to be a simple matter. The boy would fight with every bone and muscle in his body. He was marred and twisted. Luce had done an exquisite job at making sure the boy's morals were completely changed. He truly loathed Valhalla with every fiber of his tiny being.

Could he say he was upset with Morphine? Hardly. He felt a burning within the depths of his stomach, but it wasn't directed towards the pallid woman who reigned beside him. Had it been towards her then she surely would have seen his anger by now. His long fuse would run thin and once that happened he tended to explode. No. He was angry with himself. He had failed to fight for the traitor, and he had let Nnoitra take his place simply because it was unwise to have two Alphas fighting a battle at the same time. It would leave them vulnerable. Especially with activity so low within Tortuga's ranks. He would have to revamp everything and get more motivation. Perhaps Morphine had some ideas that would help with that.

A snort brought him from his own thoughts and his head jerked upwards to look at the alabaster queen. Orange hues gave her a curious glance as she stared back at him. He couldn't help but briefly wonder what had caused such an action from her. Another curious gaze was given as she gave him a smile, a genuine one, which was odd coming from a girl who seemed to love facades almost as much as his surrogate father did. He offered a small one in return before it faded along with hers. He hardly was in the mood for smiling, but he refused to be rude. She was an odd being to say the least. There was so much more he had to learn about her. He could see why the former king had taken such an interest in her.

Words began to spill from her jowls once more and Kaien made himself comfortable as she did, letting his form sink to the ground. A silver tail flicked back and forth subconsciously as he listened. He truly did believe things would improve for the both of them, it would just take time. He said nothing more on the matter though, and instead he sat back to just listen as she brought up many valid points that he'd been musing over only moments ago.

Her words were surprising to the brute. He'd known Morphine was intelligent, but a plan such as this was truly brilliant. He cocked his head to the side and eyes drifted off in thought. They would have to talk to the young boy, but the plan could definitely be pulled off so long as Neo could hold his tongue and temper in check. He nodded and his fiery gaze worked its way back to the familiar silver orbs.

"I believe that's a fine idea. Do you think he can pull it off? He has a rather quick temper I've noticed, but he's also willing to please. Do you think that's enough for him to play as spy for Tortuga and play nice with the Valhallans? There is also they possibility of him getting caught. They'll surely keep an eye on him. How will he relate the information to us?"

He paused, thinking over his own questions, before an answer suddenly came to him. It was a long shot, but it would work. She was his 'mate' after all.

"Luce..."

His words trailed off and the man wondered if she would pick up on his drifting thought. It wasn't a bad idea, but what did she think?
