Eye of the tiger

His voice was level and calm, and she found herself letting out a soft breath of air. Good. They wouldn't really have a place to go to anyways, she kind of destroyed their den. But he asked why she had wondered, and her ears lay flat against her skull. Casting her purple gaze away from him she shifted on her front paws, clearing her throat slightly before looking at anything but Valentine. "I grew up in the Range, was born there. Until I left by choice," she said, her voice as hard as stone. She knew that Valentine knew little about her past, that when Dione brought her to him, she had been claimed an orphan. But it was by choice. It had been her own thoughts that drove her away from her family. Just the thought of them brought her hackles standing up, her lips curling back into a snarl. "My father slept around, but she was still devoted to him. Practically bowed down to him, really. But she grew upset, and when Ellis went missing from our lives well... She went crazy. She went out and started to collect puppies, apparently me and Revenge were no longer enough to fill that void. She hardly paid any attention to us at all. Neither did our father, he was too busy going out to fuck over whores." She let out a laugh that was without humor, her harden gaze cut back towards Valentine. "I knew I was worth something, so I left to find that worth. I found that here. As soon as you claimed the Range, I was worried I would have to face them again. I wasn't sure if you had claimed them or not...." Her shoulders shrugged, a sigh slipping from her black lips. She hadn't meant to burden Valentine with all of this, but it felt nice to get it off her chest.
