Aftermath
To say he was nervous was an understatement, Torin paced the place where meetings had been held before. He was doing his best to get his breathing under control. It was one of the few times his emotions were plain on his face, though that had been happening more as of lately. He cast a glance at Frostbite, the man was there to provide his emotional support and as Torin glanced at him he took another deep breath. Slowly he slid his eyes closed, pushing that breath back out; digging deep within himself to clutch at that part of him that was ecstatic to be finally doing what'd he'd always sought after, then he slowly opened his eyes. Giving Frostbite a nod Torin finally moved beside the older man. With all his courage summoned Torin tipped his head back and called for the pack, for everyone. With his voice echoing off into the pack lands he settled on his haunches. This had been a long time coming, his promotion in rank had yet to be made public though some of the pack knew now... His father chief among them. That was still a sore spot and in truth he had yet to really figure out how to handle being around his father now... and it seemed likely he'd be even less happy with some of the news that he had to present; though even he'd have to admit to hypocrisy if he was. And it wasn't as though he was singling his father out... he doubted Jewell would be too happy either. He'd also have the news of his nephew's return though and he hoped to help make thing lighter because of that. As it stood he knew he had much to be nervous about, though Frostbite's support and knowing that he had backup on these fronts had helped to ease him somewhat. In the end there wasn't anything he could do now. All that was left was to wait. "Silent treatment" & Deep thoughts |
