Reporting for duty
They just wanted a family together, they had already been met with so much sadness in life, and they finally had each other... and all they wanted was a family. He didnt know what God wished to watch their sadness, but he cursed that god with all his heart. It had just about broken Vail when her tiny babies hadnt even gotten a shot in life, and he was almost scared to try again.. but how could he deny her a family, when he himself wanted one?
Perhaps what shaye had asked of them would do them good, get them get out of their own heads and concentrate on helping this new pack begin. It would only be for a season... and shaye had told them Vail was there, and needed a friend. Friendship went two ways, and he could only hope Vail could talk to the woman about what had happened.
After Shaye had left he had given Vail a gentle kiss behind her ear, and managed a smile, just for her. "Should we see our temporary Alpha, my love?" He asked her softly.
Vail hadn’t wanted to foster the feeling of resentment that lingered for her sister and her two healthy pups. They had been an accident, and yet her perfect planned litter hadn’t made it. She blamed herself, and her inferior body. She wasn’t like the other wolves, her albinism made her different in all of the worst ways.
She mentally shook herself of the horrendous thoughts, they only led her towards self destruction. She leaned into Solor’s form, knowing she would be more than entertaining the thoughts if she didn’t have him beside her. We should,” she returned softly as she shifted to offer him a kiss on his cheek in return.
He nudged her gently to her feet and stood beside her, solid support as they moved to the entrance of the den. Shaye had mentioned something about heading to meet Ace, but it seemed to him much more simple to call to the man, instead of figuring out where he had gotten to. The hunter tipped back his head and called for the white warrior, a wolf he didn’t know too well, but had seen around on Abaven lands in the past.

He was one step closer now. Shaye had offered him the help he needed to get his plans into motion, and he was grateful for her help. He wasn't sure how he could repay her for helping him over and over, but perhaps some day he would figure it out. He paced in front of his den as he waited to meet the two wolves that Shaye had spoken about. He didn't know exactly who they were, but he had seen them from time to time in passing. He had to admit, he was nervous. Each day that passed he knew he was getting closer to his goal, but it didn't stop the nervousness that came. The alabaster Male tried to focus on the nearby river to dull and calm his thoughts. He usually didn't get nervous, but perhaps it was the fact he was about to take a really big step forward. He was glad, however, that he had friends and family willing to stand by his side through the process.
A howl tore his attention away from the river. Although he didn't recognize who it was, he recognized the call was for him. He could guess that Shaye had told the pair already, so he wasted no time in abandoning his pacing and headed over to meet with them. It didn't take long for them to come into view, and as he approached he offered a nod to both of them. "You must be Solor and Vail," He looked to each in turn, "It's nice to meet the two of you."

They weren’t forced to wait long, and soon the sound of heavy paw steps reached Vail’s alabaster ears. She couldn’t see him very well, just the vague pale shape against the background of dark green. He was big though. She offered a polite smile as Acere greeted them.
”Yes, hello Acere.” She offered, her voice projecting friendliness. ”Nice to meet you as well,” She waited for Solor to add his own polite word before she continued. ”Tell me about your pack, what are we about to get ourselves into?” Her tone was teasing, but there was truth to it as well. Shaye might have volunteered her services but if Vail didn’t like what she heard she would take every action to back out. However, she doubted such action was necessary, and she did look forward to helping the warrior out.
