Letting you all down

For what was going on Lachlan felt pretty good, physically at least. Emotionally he’d been a little rough, knowing where his brother and mother were only caused him to sink into himself. He was a quiet young wolf anyway, but the fate of his kin struck him to his core. His lithe form appeared in the clearing after his father had called, it was hard to remember that he was an adult now. He’d lived so long under his father’s protective wing this dose of reality was difficult to wade through.

He wondered only slightly what his father called the pack together for but as he made his way to sit close to Torin his body tensed. The tension in the air was palpable. Lachlan leaned lightly against his father’s strong form in support as he waited.
