training the new growth [Ashen Meeting]

Pleione’s keen ears flicked to the direction of the call as if she’d been expecting it. She was still on edge every moment of every day until she was certain she’d proved herself useful enough to Venom to keep around, over-eager to please and desperate to find situations to make herself stand out in a good way. The summons, a vague call for all to gather, was hardly urgent sounding but all the same she was quick to abandon her fruitless circuit of the packlands for the day to veer toward the sound of her queen. It hurt her pride to be turned so easily into some other royal’s obedient pet, every bit the peasant she’d been proclaimed at the borders. All the same, hurt pride burned less than a hungry belly.

When she arrived to see so many young wolves gathered around, her pride smarted again like a slap to the face. It made her feel like a pup, which was strange for her, having felt like an adult in a puppy’s body through all of her traditional puppy years. She felt like she’d be proving herself forever, always looked down upon literally and figuratively from the eyes of these towering beasts of her new home. Swallowing her bitterness, she settled among her packmates at just enough distance to visibly keep herself separate from the wolves younger than her.
