Her demeanor would soften considerably, but not entirely. She was.. wary around males, though not as much as Novel was. Ara knew there was no reason to distrust him entirely, but she wouldn't let her guard down fully. Her gaze rested on him for a moment as she spoke, but she felt uncomfortable staring for too long, and she'd avert it soon after.

She noted the interest in his eyes at her words. But his own were surprising. Oh, she thought to herself, feeling her breath hitch in her throat. Valentine wasn't just a member of Imperium, but he ran it. Ara didn't know how to approach an Alpha - she'd never really spoken to Epiphron more than once, and while Leo was a bit less intimidating than his mother, she still didn't feel like it was her place to bother him. Suddenly she felt terrible for just.. walking up to Imperium's ruler, at least without knowing who he was.

"Wow," she'd say quietly, nodding as she listened.  "I didn't realize you'd founded the pack."  Ara definitely couldn't imagine having so much power; that sort of life had never appealed to her. She wouldn't be suited for leadership. She much preferred her quiet, simple life with Novel over anything else.  "It is," she replied to his question about Fiori.  "Her son has taken it over. Leo seems much like her. It's a good life, certainly."  Ara hoped he didn't think that she was bragging - her tone was deeply humble. She was certain Imperium was an equally good pack, despite whatever differences they had.
