Whats next?

This was a great start.  At least the first stage of Kotori’s goal to start his own pack was going well.  Two wolves he could count on would be joining his pack.  One would be a Fatalis, one would be a wolf who Kotori had already worked with several times and found to be worthy of respect.  Even when Hika had been suffering from the sickness he had worked hard with Kotori to kill off any fool predators that got near the pack land.

The horned wolf put a paw on top of one of Mort’s slightly larger paws, grinning “I’ve never doubted you, Mort.  I count you a great addition to my pack.  I know you would never let me down.” i" Kotori added a grin as he removed his paw again, “you got good taste too.  I’m picky on who I choose to respect but Hikaru I like.”i"

Could there ever be a day where his pack ended up just Fatalis and their mates?  He wouldn’t kick out a member of the pack simply for not being of their blood but it was a nice thing to imagine.  What if they had a family of two dozen made up like that?  Adults, children, grandchildren, and mates.  The numbers could add up quickly enough.  Though he would fully encourage his kids to go find their own spot in the world if they wanted.  Aiming for greatness couldn’t always happen if one just spent their entire life where they had been born.
