Despite his youthfulness, she knew she had already charmed him; and while she would never dream of doing anything with a yearling, he was attractive boy and she had no doubts that he would easily find himself a woman when he came of age. The playful smile still played at her lips as she gazed at him, as though searching for something she might recognize in the young man. Though little more than a stranger to her, he struck her as familiar; perhaps he was somehow related to someone in Ebony that she had met before? It was then that he admitted Raisa was his mother. She'd passed on the pack to... him. He seemed far too nervous and timid to be a leader, but she knew that leadership was not a quality one was necessarily born with. Perhaps he would grow to be a leader far stronger than she ever could be; only time would tell. "Interesting.." she would muse, that playful smile returning, her eyes sparkling -- Ebony as a pack had always appealed to her, though it hadn't been somewhere she'd been able to call home during such a tumultuous part of her life. "How are you finding leadership?" she would venture to ask, suddenly inquisitive. Perhaps she could aid him in some way, though she didn't know if he needed advice at all. She, too, had been thrust into a position of power without much preparation, though she had been ruling over strangers. "My family?" What did Kassander know of her? Did he know of Valhalla? Of Syrinx? She didn't know to what extent the Xanilovs were involved in the affairs of the Adravendi family, if at all. Perhaps he simply meant her ex-husband -- and she figured this was the case, given the sudden rise of strangeness to his tones. "I am on my own now," she would offer him a bit warily. It had been difficult enough to admit it to herself that Maverick was gone, that the union that had once bound them had been dissolved by his disappearance, but it was another thing entirely to announce it to the world. "Though if you mean my children, they are faring well." Her 'family' had shrunk significantly, and the blood ties that bound the Adravendis together were stronger than ever now. Beyond her sister, and beyond her children, there were few that she cared about now. |
