Her ear twitched in his direction as gentle tones whispered the words that left his lips. She turned her attention to what he had to say and a smile broke out across her face. Slowly, she turned her head to look up into his eyes. Aeil's tail wagged behind her and she whispered, "That sounds like a good idea, Dragon. I shall say something at once." Maverick's announcement regarding her and the rank promotion he bestowed made her attention return to the red King in front of her. Light shined in her eyes and she waited patiently until he had finished speaking to voice her own words. "Thank you, King Maverick," she said, breathless from the excitement that was evident in her chest. Her light blue eyes twinkled and she continued. "I will do my best to continue proving my worth to our family members and the kingdom we represent." It was then that she cleared her throat and said, "To add my two cents about the mentor program, I have a proposition. One of our newest members, Dragon-" She nodded to the male beside her, "has peeked an interest in possibly taking on one of the young pups as his mentee." A gentle gaze moved to the quiet pup that was nestling beside Maverick's leg. "In particular, Cassius would be that certain one." She smiled softly and said, "If it is all right with you, Queen Epiphron-" she dipped her muzzle to her red-and-white queen, "and of course, young Cassius, that is. Cassius would be under the right wing to learn from Dragon, I am sure." She hoped that they would grant her beloved the permission to teach Cassius. Dragon was fairly new and wanted to prove his worth...she knew how that was. "speeeeech" |
