A little shut-eye will do

Watching her carefully, Xephyris was glad when she finally decided to speak. Every little look she gave, any movement of her brows or muzzle, was very expressive of how she felt inside. Still, he longed to hear it out loud, to really know what she was thinking. Why, he wasn't sure. As his silver eyes scanned over her features, he saw many emotions and thoughts cross her face. It was impossible to know exactly went on within her mind, but some things came out as clear as day. She wasn't completely opposed to the things he'd said, although she had no desire to agree with him. Very well. She didn't have to say it out loud. At last a question would form upon her lips. "Where will you go?" The words seemed to escape her before she could stop herself, and Xephyris smirked with amusement, the tips of his teeth showing beneath his lips as he did so. "For now, I must remain here," was his only response to her first question. However, she allowed more words to form, surely only on impulse. He had a feeling she almost didn't want to ask if he'd be following Riv in his future pack. Surely, she must hope that he would go elsewhere. But indeed he would be along for the entire ride. He nodded to acknowledge her last question. He would certainly be following the young brute in his next ventures, wherever that led him. Xephyris had little interest in joining a pack that was already well-established. For whatever reason, it seemed much more appealing to be a part of something new, to help establish something different. "Aye, I'll be following Riv," he confirmed, blinking his narrowed silver eyes, "We'll all be pack mates for a long time to come. We oughtta get used to it." His words would end in a maniacal chuckle. He knew how hard it would be in the beginning, how much they'd hate it. But after it all, it'd be worth it, for they'd finally establish a pack worth protecting. |
