Though she had been in Alacritia for longer than she had lived in Ahlon, Novella couldn't say that many wolves beyond her blood relatives had really had a big affect upon her life. Frith had soon changed that of course, not that she though she would ever come to regret that fact.
Though she had only intended her comment in a serious way, certainly not to tease her mate at all, he would still enquire whether she was making fun of him. It'd succeed in bringing a smile to her face, however guilty it may have looked, his response and mistaken belief amused her. "Of course not, sir." She responded, now purposefully poking fun at his choice of words. She was surprised though that he hadn't reverted back to his former traditional 'Miss Novella' she'd lost count of the number of times she'd had to tell him to simply call her Novella.
"I know." She responded, a slightly apologetic look cast in his direction, she did miss those moments too but whilst she wasn't denbound she wanted to abuse the time she could wander around the lands freely and easily. She wouldn't try justify her reasons to him however, perhaps he already knew, either way she knew she wasn't really in trouble anyway.
