Healer, Healer, Fight For Me.
Next Solveiga listened closely as her teacher told her about the importance of protecting her throat. For once she was glad to be small, because according to her alpha it meant most opponents would have a hard time reaching her vitals. Even so, she needed to learn how to give such a vulnerable area more protection. Again she watched her teacher and then nodded, keeping her legs squared and balanced as she lowered her head to rest between her shoulders and tucked her chin the way Regulus had done. There.
"Like that?" the girl asked with a bit of a laugh, trying to look up at the crimson male but with her head tucked it proved to be difficult. She raised her chin the tiniest bit, just so she could meet his eyes. "It makes it a little hard to see," she admitted. "Anything I could do to help that?"
She was taking this training seriously, and she wanted Regulus to know that. His earlier words still echoed in her mind, what would you do if you were the only wolf between your newborn pups and someone who wanted to hurt them? Solveiga swallowed nervously just remembering those words. She hoped, when she became a mother, that nothing bad like that would ever happen. But if it did, she needed to learn how to defend herself and her children. And as a healer, she needed to be able to keep her patients safe from any further harm as well.
