Go The Distance

It had been too long since she had been in the company of others. She missed it. Her mind and heart were too strong to be sleeping alone every night, one eye constantly open for fear of endangerment. She was not afraid of death nor was she afraid of her surroundings, but she refused to let another wolf overtake her as they had done with her birth pack.
She could easily say that it was not a mistake that she sought out the scent of Tortuga on this spring day. She had heard good things about Glaciem, and word among the nomads was that a Glaciem wolf had now taken over the Tortugan position of alpha. And the small group reminded her of the small ranks that her old pack had homed. The only, and very important, difference was that Tortuga was home to fighters and led by the daughter of a well known tyrant. She liked that.
Her silver and auburn toned fur shone in the sunlight as she entered the clearing by the lakeside. Golden eyes took in her surroundings and the small gathering of wolves headed by the snowy white queen. A smile would not cross her features even as excitement flooded her veins. She would not allow herself to be anything but respectful and reverent in the presence of her potential queen.
Pebbles from the lakeside rubbed harshly between her toes as she padded calmly towards the gathering. She did not want to appear intimidating to the small pack. She was merely responding to the call that the alphess had given. The woman dipped her head in respect to the alabaster queen, golden eyes lifting to address her.
"Greetings, queen alphess. My name is Melody. I heard your call and have chosen to accept your invitation to enter your territory in hopes of being accepted into the ranks of your pack. I have much to offer and hope to better myself and the well being of Tortuga upon my entrance." She would not sit in front of the woman, she knew better than to disrespect her in such a way. She would stand a short distance from her with her head dipped, awaiting the queen's reply.
