Do I owe you this?

A reward? That was the last thing Naiche had expected and the queasiness in his stomach had him feeling it was the last thing he wanted also. The wheat-coated wolf deserved a tongue lashing more than a reward. It might have not been his idea but he had gone along with it. Naiche had stupidly let his ego blind him to truth and followed Asla on a lion hunt. Moronic.
Naiche’s tail wasn’t the best for expression at the moment since it was staying down, but his ears now pulled back unhappily at the offer of a reward. “I don’t need a reward,” Naiche shook his head, “I don’t deserve it either. I’d be dead if it wasn’t for her.” Reward? Naiche was trying to to remind himself he wasn’t the one who said the lie, wasn’t the one who came up with the idea but did that matter? To not speak the truth was to go along with deceiving the leader of the pack. Naiche hadn’t even been with the pack that long and he was ready to start deceiving already?
Damn Asla. Kicking himself hurt more than the tail, it didn’t feel quite as bad if he poured some of that hate into Asla instead of himself. Why was he keeping it a secret? For her? He hated her? For himself?
“I’m sorry, I do appreciate it that you would want to reward me to begin with.” Naiche hoped his guilt wasn’t as visible as it felt to him.
