“Just mine?” he asked her, as she told him she would not throw her life away, as her father had. He saw it in a similar light, that the fool had gotten himself killed, over… he wasn’t even sure what. Finding on the edge of the volcano had been foolish, even if it hadn’t erupted in that moment.
Of course, he also agreed with her, that she was too precious to lose, but it would do no good saying that outloud. He would train them, train all her siblings, to give them the strength to live and to be whatever they wished to be. He thought that was the best way to protect them.
“Oh no, i’m not leaving. I can train you, but your stuck with me, I told you that. It would be very easy for a wolf or another predator to come in here well you are alone. Only a foolish wolf dens alone.” of course, he had been that foolish wolf many a time. “If you think you are strong enough to stay here alone, you will have to prove it.’ he warned her. He would follow her orders, and give her so much, but he would not let her throw her life away, as she had just promised she would not.
