She never used to like being the last to arrive anywhere, but as times changed and rapidly spun off course, she found the things that used to matter so much to her seemed mostly insignificant now. She spent most of her time alone now, unsure how much of that was an active choice on her part, and how much of it was simply due to the fact that no one else seemed to have any desire to be around her. It was strange to think back on the days they had all shared a den, her and her siblings playing together and training together. Those times seemed short lived, in hindsight. So eager to grow up, she had missed out on everything that was supposed to come in between.
Her fathers call pulled her from whatever world she had been lost in, and without taking any time to consider it, she moved to join those of her siblings that were still around. She didn’t like that her father had given up the pack, but mostly because she didn’t like not being the alpha’s daughter. Any status she may have been able to earn from that title would have been flimsy anyways, it hadn’t gotten her very far before and there was no reason to think that would have changed. Still, she was just another wolf now, and that particular pill was harder to swallow than anything else.
Her brothers were there, already gathered around Ignis in tense silence. She sat on her own, not too close or too far from any of them. She wasn’t angry like Cina was, but she felt there was distance between her and the rest of the family. She often felt like she didn’t belong, but it wasn’t like she had anywhere else to be.
