The she-wolf waited, on edge to see what the 'Queen Slayer' would reply with - (Mentally making a note never to call her by such a name). Champion didn't expect her to neccisarily understand the morals she held - she was used to meeting wolves of different creeds, or lack there of - but she hoped Newt would at least accept them.

Champion felt her heart quickened, her senses growing more alert, it was the feeling she was accustomed only to feeling during hunts and fights. It was excitement. As Newt spoke of her acceptance of Champion's stance and once more repeated her generous offer, Champion grew excited. All that was explained - the job requirements, the business, the freedom to come and go, the challenge of some of the aspects - it all called to her. For the first time in... well her life, pack life seemed appealing.

And, to be honest spending more time with the grey lady was appealing to.
It was hard to explain: Newt, on first appearance seemed like the strongest wolf Champion had ever met. But she wasn't - on the inside. It was quite clear that at some point she'd been broken. She was holding herself together admirably - but the cracks showed through. That, more than anything, called to Champion's feelings. She had also been a 'guardian' sort. Seemed she'd found someone new to protect.

Champion raised herself up to a sit - her hind legs flopped comfortably sideways, but her forelegs were straight and her chin was high. "Newt...for so long I've been living for myself - by myself. It's been fun and all, but not... fullfilling. Now you're offering me something more - purpose. And I'd be a fool not to thank you for it. I accept your offer for a place as a Chevalier-" the new word was strange on her tongue, but she understood it now as the equivalent to Beta. Quite the honor. -"and I intend to prove myself worthy of it."

She'd be there. There to guard the Queen's borders, endow future warriors with her knowledge, and keep an eye on those pups when they were born. And if ever lines came that she could not cross, she'd deal with that when it happened. For now, she was entirely at Newt's command, and she bowed her head to signal this.

By now Champion's ribs had had a chance to rest. She wouldn't be 100 percent for a week and her tail would probably be permanently crooked atop her back - but so what. In the northerner's opinion, today had been worth it. "Whenever you're ready to go, I'll follow." Champion grinned. "I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited about seeing my new home."
