a new beginning

A smile spread across the lips of the man as he was greeted, returning the loving lick upon the cheek to her own.  His tail would wag some, his green eyes shining. "Funny how that works. I was looking for you as well." He knew the pack claiming the territory that he had last been seen in through them both for a loop. "But we're together now, so no need to worry." The man would say softly. He would close the little bit of distance between them, pressing to her coat and laying his head across the back of her neck. She had news to tell him too it seemed, though it did not seem to be anything bad, so the male kept her in his embrace.

"News hmm? What might it be, my love?" Ritsuka would saw softly. The scent of Regium upon her coat was duller. She had left the pack, as she said that she would. Perhaps she had already claimed her own land? But maybe there was something else too. He would blink some, her scent caught in his nose. Something seemed... different. Rather than ask, however, the male would wait for her to speak first. Perhaps she would have the answer in what she wanted to tell him.
