she was able to hear his anger the moment that he started in. Her ears pinned and she flinched back, body shaking as she fought the urge to roll over and show her belly to him. She'd angered him and inside she was starting to already beat herself up for it. Acere was a master and her a lowly slave. Even with the freedom of her life in Abaven she still felt like that's what she had been to them. A servant to please someone she had loved yet turned out he hurt her worse than any physical wound ever would.
She knew that her children needed her, but Rhyme was their father and Shaye wanted anything and everything that was his. Even if that meant driving away a mother from her children. But what Ace said it was hard to find a reason to not do what she already was. Why should she stop running and hiding from the world that seemed to only want to hurt her? But then again Acere had no idea about her life, what she'd been bred and born for. The life she had was on a thin sting and fragile in it's way. All it took was a little thing and she'd be no more. "They probably hate me by now..... even though I want nothing more than to take them away with me, I can't. I'm no fighter like you Acere.... I'm not even able to hunt for myself. I cant go back either though, the thought of what shaye might do next to me terrifies me." she was honest with both of them. All she had was her healing, but that wouldn't save any of them. Shaye had won long before they were ever a thing. All she'd had to do was act on her jealousy and anger at Tana for taking even a peice of Rhyme, and Tana was broke.
Ace went on and she wasnt sure about it. He was starting a pack. But what use would she even be? She who was terrified of the world, and could barely leave the territory when she had been part of Abaven. Yet here he was offering her a place in his soon to be pack. Where else did she have to go though? Did he realize how truly useless she was though? "I.... I'm pretty useless you know...... but if your serious then I have no where else to go, but I don't know about going so far away from my children either." would he try to at least get some of them for her? Or would he make her live with the fact that she had abandoned them because she was scared of Shaye?

Tana is a flighty individual, with absolutely no will to fight. She might get scared and run mid-thread, I apologize in advance for this. Its nothing against your characters, she has just had a tough past and has a hard time trusting anyone.
