Together

The solo King would be strolling along the borders at the time of the call. He rarely left the invisible bounds, but it was important to know them well and to spread his scent evenly among them in order to keep them safe. The pack was growing, prospering, and Gerhardt attributed this in part to his diligence toward the borders. And so, when the call came across the borders only a short distance away, Gerhardt was interested in just who was calling. A second call rang out, this one familiar in contrast to the first. A smile crossed his lips as he knew it to be Loccian's melody filling the air. So, she had brought someone with her? The King stopped briefly in his tracks, taking the time to shake his pelt free of any debris or dirt that might have deposited. When was through his tail flagged upward and his head raised an inch.

Tail wavered placidly behind him as he arrived on the scene, noting a man standing very close to Loccian. What was this? The King had thought she and Bronze were hitting it off nicely, was this man another suitor? Of course, he could very well be family. Yes, that was surely a safer assumption. Jaws fell open. "Loccian," came caring and affectionate tones. The King was rather fond of his Contessa. ".. and who do we have here?" Notes would ring out as he shifted his vision from the woman to the man at her side. He was easily an impressive looking creature, and his appearance was similar to that of Loccian's.
