There was a part of the man that hated to admit it if he was entirely honest but lately Dutiron had discovered that Frith joining the pack wasn't quite as bad a thing as he had initially feared. They had been shocked and concerned, but ultimately it seemed that Novella had actually introduced a rather decent young man to the pack. Of course Frith was still spending an awful lot of time with Novella, though Dutiron couldn't help but notice that his daughter actually seemed somewhat happier than she had in a while. That worried him more so than anything else, but there was little really that could be complained about, both were sticking strictly to their punishments.
The man hadn't complained once about having to help out with the hunting and had certainly done a rather good job of keeping the pack well fed. Dutiron was definitely pleased with the hard work, that much there was no denying nor would he even attempt to. To be honest he was pleasantly surprised by it, pleased to find that the other was falling so easily into coping with the duties that came with being part of a pack. It was certainly hard to stay mad at his daughter, though Frith was certainly earning forgiveness all on his own.
At some point a part of him knew that they should probably point these facts out to Frith, praise him for his hard work and help him adjust with the rest of the pack a little more and to be honest there was a plan forming in the Author's mind already. He would be in no rush to deal with all of that just yet however, and currently would be on his way back into the centre of the pack lands after a check of the borders. Once more he would be pleased and shocked by the fact that there was no sign at all of Novella's scent anywhere near them though various other members of the pack had come and gone as they pleased.
