Everything Ends (Ebony Meeting)

Nikolai lifted his head and turned his gaze toward the sad howl that was Kassander's call. His brows pulled together with concern, but he wouldn't hesitate to hurry forward to answer the summons. He slowed to a stop as he neared the rock that had become the gathering place for all of their meetings. The expression on his alpha's face was not one he understood. He settled onto his haunches and waited for the others to arrive. He didn't speak, instead just giving Kassander a small nod. He hoped whatever it was wasn't too serious... He knew he had mostly kept to himself, especially after they had returned from the siege, but he still cared for his pack mates and hoped everything was alright. It wasn't often that he let himself become comfortable around others so it was a rare thing indeed for him to care about so many wolves like this.
