Sarak spoke to her as she approached, his words a response to her own. ?Quite the washout, wasn?t it. You?re the first wolf I have seen since the flood. Is every--? He cut off short of completing his sentence but her mind completed it to the way that she thought it would come out. He was checking to make sure everyone was alright. She didn't see the look he was giving her as she eyeballed the puddle with a look to kill.

As she embraced him, she felt his body shrink a bit but she was paying enough attention to see the markers of his sudden submission. All she recognized was the fact that she took him off guard and that no longer surprised her. Azalea seemed to be the queen of startling Sarak.

The dark shaded male chuckled. It was an action that quickly grabbed Azalea's attention. She had never heard Sarak make such a noise before and he seemed just as surprised as she was. ?I think I share that thought. My den is underwater, however.? So easily she was distracted, her face lighting up at his words. She wagged her tail and rolled her shoulders, her eyes catching his with a devious gleam. "If you were a Merwolf you would have no problem!" She nodded resolutely.

In her head she pictured that, Sarak with a fish tail and gills. Her jaws clenched, lips pressing tightly together. Her eyes gave the look that she had heard something unbelievable. And then she started laughing, the image in her mind too hilarious to help herself. "You would probably bite me if you could see the picture that came to my mind. Merwolf Sarak."

She shook the thought away, fighting the light smile. "No worries. Everything will dry out... eventually." She knew how attached the male was to his den. Azalea on the other hand did not have one. She preferred not to be underground, instead sleeping under the stars or under rock overhangs. If she were a mother then she might feel better about being enclosed by earth but she didn't know if after the events that just unfolded that she would be able to den like that. Helpless puppies were easily drowned, especially when wolves had more pups than they had mouths for.

This made her worry for her mother. Would she feel safe having her puppies in Valhalla? How could they be so sure that the lands would not flood again in the near future?
