Silence speaks.
Silence screams .
Silence talks louder then any word,
That cuts through the heart like a sword.

The black she-wolf observed with a blank stare the Security Brute. She wondered why he had decided to come to her at all, out of all the wolves in this pack. But she didn't dwell on it for too long. She wasn't sure if she even wanted to know, but she suspected it was because he had no one to share the rabbit with. It was quite large for the middle of winter. At the thought of the season, Red internally rolled her eyes. It was soon time for the Mating Moon. The fae had no intention in taking part of it, albeit being forced to attend it. For the past year that she'd attended it, she was mostly left to herself. No one dared to walk up to the newly ranked Security Fae, her silence was more feared than envied at the time. She hadn't complained. Thinking about the Mating Moon caused her train of thought to drift towards her late family. Remembering that she was once able to rely on somebody. But those days were over. Getting too close to someone, and trusting them only brings hurt. Maybe if she had insisted more upon keeping her siblings with her instead of trusting her older brother to bring them home safely, Echo and Casper would still be with her. She wouldn't have figured out the ugly truth. Chasing those dreaded thoughts away, Red looked up at Ryder again. She was being unfair to herself, she knew that. But she couldn't help it. Being left alone for 2 years taught you that your only company is yourself. It's a wonder the pack wolf hadn't started talking to herself yet.

The silent wolf's eyes caught the slightest change in Ryder's eyes. His yellow{?} eyes darkened faintly, so minimal that is seemed insignificant. But Red knew better. A flash of anger and maybe a little hurt lit up his eyes, and the fae couldn't help but wonder what he was thinking about. What secrets layed behind those captivating eyes of his? Red Leaves didn't press him for it. She never asked for information unless given voluntarily. Every wolf had their right of privacy. Instead, she just flicked her ears and listened to him speak. Not a bad day yet, probably won't last thought, blizzards like to sneak up on us. Red nodded slightly in agreement, her head barely moving at all as she just observed silently. As he took a small bite out of his catch and pushed the rest towards her, Red noticed his eyes quickly, almost too fast for her to catch, drift towards her flank and back to her face. She knew what he was thinking. She looked underweight, and she knew it. But Red was never bothered by it. She had a small appetite, and her body type was slimmer than many. Lowering her head towards the freshly-killed rabbit, the Security Fae bit into the warm meat, her taste buds relishing the taste of animal blood in her mouth. Her ears instinctively angled towards him as he spoke, a habit of hers to listen intently to everyone who spoke to her. blasted Moon thing will be over. For some unknown reason, those words stuck in her mind. She definitely wasn't the only one who felt that way towards the Mating Moon. It was basically pointless. Most of the time her packmates fell in love during spring and summer, when they weren't focused on finding prey to survive. The whole thing was absurd to her, but what could she do? They would probably think her opinion was biased, considering she'd never been able to properly catch a brute's attention.

All through her wandering thoughts, Red made sure to never let anything show. The smallest slip up could cause a nightmare for th black she-wolf, a nightmare she wasn't ready to face. They would probably ask her questions, and all Red would be able to do was cower away. Not that she was afraid, far from it. But she didn't want that to happen. Not when she wasn't even sure of it herself. Picking away at the rabbit the other Security Wolf had brought, Red's amber eyes drifted away around camp, more feeling than seeing the emptiness of it. Her pack wasn't particularly close, most focused on feeding themselves and the pack than bonding. If it wasn't for that damned { Just a question, is that considered as swearing? } snow that covered the floor all year long, maybe this pack would have more interaction amongst themselves. If Red had one wish, she knew she'd wish that the white powder never existed. It might be pretty to watch, but it made living all the more difficult. Ryder's voice registered in her mind once again, and she looked up at him to see the brute starting to walk away. Without thinking, Red called out to him, cocking her head to the side as the slightest sign of confusion flashed through her eyes. "It's your rabbit too." Was all she said, her voice just a little over a murmur. It wasn't that she had nothing else to say, she just didn't know how to put her thoughts into words. She was definitely out of practice, but it didn't bother her very much. It was just the type of fae she was. A silent, calculating she-wolf. Not that she needed to speak very often, signals using movement of tails and ears worked perfectly when communication was mandatory, say during a patrol or something. Straightening up, Red pushed herself away from the half-eaten rabbit, beckoning Ryder over with a sweep of her fluffy black tail.

"Love me, hate me
whatever you do
don't get on the
wrong side of me.
No friends, no foes
just acquaintances
who don't bother
me with their woes."
-Pekoe

Pekoe remained standing by the waters edge his head turned in the direction the scent of his pack mates was coming from. Two of his pack mates, a male and a female or at least that's what his nose told him. He was deep in thought about if he should or should not join them. If he headed back to camp then he might just end up sitting around with nothing to do but of course the alpha might be there to assign him to some task. If he went to help with the border patrol he might not be needed nor wanted. The security wolf was perplexed so he just stood there almost as if a trance while he tried yet failed to make up his mind. So busy was he trying to make that decision he failed to pay proper attention to his surroundings so he did not notice the she-wolf heading in his direction. The breeze was blowing in a way that her scent was being blown away from his nostrils but his ears really should have picked up the sound of the snow crunching beneath her paws.

Due to being oblivious to his surroundings the sudden feeling of pressure on his side came as a total shock for Pekoe. One moment it had just been the smokey grey wolf and his thoughts alone and then there was a voice 'stupid tree' but in his current state of shock and surprise he did not take notice of the words. The security wolf stumbled slightly but managed to stay on his feet, usually an impact like this would not have fazed him but this had been unexpected. The wolfs first thought was that someone was attacking him, who it might be? Well he didn't think about that. Teeth bared he whirled around to see what he thought was his attacker, his black lips parted to utter a snarl and he was ready to defend himself against whoever it might be.

What Pekoe saw when he turned was not what he had been expecting. Now of course he hadn't known what to expect but it certainly wasn't the light grey huntress AnnaBeth that was for sure. Why would she want to attack him? They were pack mates and they had never even spoken before. Before he had time to do anything she spoke uttering an apology. Hearing what she had to say the dark grey wolf relaxed a little so that while he no longer looked like he was about to go for her he still didn't exactly look relaxed. "You should look where you're going next time" the security wolf snapped feeling irritated at being caught off-guard.

Slowly but surely the agitation was fading so Pekoe was soon back to his normal calm self so next time he spoke his tone was neutral and the words kind for his standards anyway. 'Sorry I wasn't expecting to see anyone here" he apologized for his outburst only moments earlier. "Hurt me?" No not at all" the brute said giving a vigorous shake of his head. Sure what had happened had surprised him but it had done no damage to the wolf. It was odd that she would even think that her walking into him would hurt, if she was going at a faster pace then she could have knocked him over given the state he was in but luckily for them both she had only been walking. If her tempo had been higher her head could also have been hurt by the impact. Thoughts on whether he should head back to camp or to the border had been forgotten now, the shock had knocked those thoughts clean out of the males mind.

Ryder was wondering again just why he had walked over, why pick Red out of all the wolves that had been in camp at the time. Probably because every other wolf in camp had been talking to someone, and it would have been rather strange to walk up to two wolves in mid conversation, ignore one while saying to the other, you want to share this rabbit with me? Not that it had been any less strange going up to Red, but at least another wolf hadn't been around. Then there was the fact that he had completely forgotten the fea didn't talk, at least not unless she had to. When had his life become such a big mess? When had he lost his smooth talk and quick mind? Oh that's right, it was right after he gave Luna his heart and she crushed it beneath her paws and threw it in the cold icy river. Yep, that is exactly when it happened. Luna had made him feel as if he were on top of the world, and then she had brought him plummeting to earth and cast him into the deepest pit anyone could make. He often wondered if he could have done anything to keep Luna as his mate, should they have had pups right away? Had he treated her badly? Should he have ought harder to keep her his? What had he done that was so wrong that she would leave him for another brute? He doubted he would ever know. Now he was like a robot, doing the same thing over and over again. He woke up early and walked the border, maybe he caught a mouse or rabbit if he was lucky. He then came back sat in camp by his den till it grew dark, then he tried to sleep. The next day the same thing started again. Perhaps every now and then he would have a short and small conversation with another wolf, but nothing big, maybe just a hello and how are you, type of thing. So really what had he expected coming to share a rabbit with Red?

His mind set on walking away the large brute was about to do just that when a suddenly small voice stopped him. It was rather quite but his ears easily picked it up, he noticed his hearing had been growing better since he started catching mice. He could hear little things he had never heard before. The words were simple. "It's your rabbit too." Ryder turned back around to look at Red watching her wondering if she really wanted him to stay, at least that is what he got out of her words. After all the fea did seem to like being alone, at least he assumed she did, why else would she not talk and always stay in places like this spot under the tree? Maybe she had secrets just like he did, memories and past stories that she didn't want anyone to talk about. Or maybe she wanted him to stay so she could get to know him, then drop him later. Not so likely with how Red seemed to be, but it was always possible and ever since Luna Ryder had never trusted another fea and he knew he never would. Still he couldn't run forever, and perhaps he should get to know some feas, after all his father had wanted him to get a mate sometime in life. The thought of having a mate scared him more then anything. He would sooner face a pack of loners by himself before asking a fea to be his mate. The thought that Red might get the idea he was flirting with her or trying to get her to like him made his throat go dry and his body numb with fear. He defiantly didn't want to lead anyone on, If he did stick around to talk with her then he would make it clear he didn't want any sort of relationship other then friendship.

Making up his mind Ryder moved back to where he had been sitting before but laid down this time. "I guess you are right." He said not looking fully at her. His voice didn't sound as sure as it normally did and he quickly cleared his throat. "I just don't want to bother you or anything." He added looking up at her now. "So if I start to bother you or annoy you just give me a swat on the nose like my mother used to do, and I will leave you in peace." He looked at the rabbit again but his stomach didn't feel hungry. He knew he probably didn't need to talk but he felt strange not saying anything. "So, you one of those wolves that loves the Mating Moon?" It was the only thing he could think of and it sort of came out before he could stop it. "You don't have to answer with your voice if you don't want, you can just shake your head yes or no." He added hoping he didn't make her feel to uncomfortable.

Not yet fully recovered AnnaBeth kept her gaze on her paws and thought about just running away as she had done when was a pup and had done something stupid. Of course she was an adult now and couldn't run away from something she had done that was wrong or embarrassed her. No, now that she was older she needed to deal with her mistakes and clumsiness. The first words that Pekoe spoke were short and snappish. She almost winced but managed to keep herself from doing so. Of course he was right, she should have been paying attention, but in all fairness he could have heard her coming and moved or said something. He had been just as distracted as she. She brought her head up her stubbornness and a bit of anger out weighing her need to feel sorry about running into the large brute. If he wanted to be snappy so could she, he wasn't the only one with sharp teeth and the skill of fighting. Perhaps her rank or Hunter made him think her weak, well she could defiantly show him a few things. Being alone most of her life, except when her parents decided to come back to the den, she had had to keep herself and her sister safe. She wasn't the greatest fighter, she would admit that right off, but she wasn't bad ether and she could probably do some damage to the brute should he feel the need to fight with her. Maybe she wouldn't win in a fight against this brute, but she could at least give him a few new scars to match the ones he had.

Quickly though he seemed to calm down and as he did so did she, at his apology she tilted her head a little at him. She supposed he wasn't used to hunters being out alone, and besides that most of the wolves were together on border patrols or hunting parties. She watched him a moment before she spoke. "I wasn't expecting anyone here ether, or I am sure I would have paid more attention." She looked at the water and saw the sliver of a fish before is darted away. "I am glad your not hurt." She said sort of absently, her voice almost a whisper. She turned toward the water and took a soft step toward the edge of the river. She glanced back at the Security Brute. "Do you mind just staying right there? Please don't move." Her voice was a whisper now and she walked even slower then before until she was just at the edge of the river. She was careful not to cast her shadow over the water and watched waiting silently. She hoped the brute behind her would do the same. As the silver of the fish drew near she quickly plunged forward into the icy cold waterer jaws open as she did so. Her whole front stayed in the water a few seconds before she pulled herself back out the prize she had caught firmly between her jaws. Not many fish could be found here in the cold weather, on a lucky day she could catch two, on a good day one. It seemed today was a good day.

The grey and white fea shook out her pelt sending the cold water flying in droplets all around her. She laid the fish in the snow and smiled to herself. Not a bad sized fish, but the real beauties came in spring and summer. She looked up at Pekoe and gave a small smile. "Thanks for being quite." She looked at the fish again. She picked it up and walked to Pekoe laying it near his paws. "Heres a bit of an apology gift. I am sure you are hungry." She wasn't sure how the brute would react to her giving him he fish, would he simply gobble it up as if it was his right or would he refuse to eat it at all? Or would be insist on sharing with her? Or maybe he would do something completely different. She wished she knew him better, could judge what he would do, she used to be able to do things like that with some of the other pack mates, with her sister and with her parents. But she had to admit she hardly knew anyone anymore.

Shattered Truth

Live-✬-Beyond-ღ-The-✬-Boundary-ღ

I am~ "Conversing with Jade."
My current emotion~ "Energetic and curious."
My relationship status~ "Eh I'm too young."

Smiling as the she wolf accepted the offer True bounded backwards and tripped over her own paws, landing on her side with a soft thump. Sneezing the small pup jumped back to her paws like it was nothing and shook out her silver and black pelt, ridding it from any dirt. She was use to it though as the tundra wolf had a habit of getting dirty and she enjoyed it just like most pups would. Hearing as Jade finished True padded over and pawed at the lump of fur before feeling the outline of a bone, sniffing it her tail wagged before she grabbed one of the bones and trotted over to a spot that was right in the middle between the two wolves. Placing the bone in her paws the small silver wolf began to gnaw away at the exterior of the bone, the protection somewhat cracking as her sharp teeth pierced into it. It was difficult for her but soon enough True was able to reach the marrow and happily dug in. Shattered Truth had a thing went it came down to marrow and whenever her brother took down prey she would always get at least one bone and chew away. She didn't how or why she adopted this habit it just happened to appear. Continuing to consume the marrow and partial fragments from the outside of bone her ears perked up when yet another thought entered her mind. She wasn't sure if White Fang would agree but when it came down to it she knew the noble wolf would allow it. Tail thumping against the ground True stood up, halting her marrow eating and turned towards Jade's direction. "Would you perhaps want to join my brother and I? We always manage to find enough prey and I think it would be fun, unless of course you wanted to join the pack instead." True said softly and her muzzle involuntarily turned towards the direction of the pack border. The scent was still strong and most likely has been remarked no less than within a week. Black nose quivering her cloudy sightless amber eyes turned back towards Jade, tilting her head to the side as she awaited for a response.

White Fang

Life-✬-And-ღ-Love-✬-Is-ღ-A-✬-Warzone

I am~ "With Jade and True."
My current emotion~ "Apathetic."
My relationship status~ "Mateless I believe."

Exhaling softly in content the brute's hollow eyes closed as the slight rustle of the wind soothed him. White Fang was always calmed by the simple acts of nature and some could comprehend why. He was a silent one, an observer that kept to himself and would always be found lost in his thoughts or just listening to the things around him. It was like as if he was one with the earth. He walked silently as a shadow and easily blended in with them despite his multi-colored pelt. Smirking the canis lupus allowed his mind once more to wander, being careful to not stray far beyond the walls he took years to built. He wasn't quite ready to recall those past memories that lurked behind them. Besides his jagged scar going straight through his left eye was enough as a constant reminder but nonetheless he wouldn't do anything to rid of it. Hazel orbs snapping open White Fang raised his head up when he heard a cracking sound and chuckle softly when he saw that it was simply just True gnawing away at a bone as expected. Shaking his head at her he just smirked and scanned their surroundings, his instincts rising to always be on alert. Watching as Shattered Truth's ears suddenly perked up he knew a thought had entered her mind and he waited for her to speak to see what it was. It wasn't even a minute before her maw parted and she asked Jade, the female loner if she wanted to join their small band of loners. His tail flicked as his dark haunting eyes casted over to Jade, waiting for her response. In truth the brute wasn't use to being around other wolves but he did have morals and was quite fine with having the she wolf join. It would be good for True as well since he was her only company. Just shrugging his broad shoulders White Fang motioned to Jade that it was merely her decision and with either one he would be content with it.

"Love me, hate me
whatever you do

wrong side of me.
No friends, no foes

who don't bother
me with their woes."
-Pekoe

Now fully calmed down Pekoe listened to what the huntress had to say for herself. Well it was true at this time most other wolves would be out carrying out their duties within the pack so if he had still been angry he would have accepted that as an apology."S'alright" he said in a tone that was less cold than usual for his standards but it could still not be described as a warm nor friendly one just less aloof than normally. Those words being said the grey male thought he was done here and could go back to doing whatever he had been doing before this incident. What was that again? It took the security wolf a moment to recall what he had been so deep in thought over only moments earlier. Well I might as well head back to camp he decided glad to have finally made a decision. Maybe there would be something to eat now if the hunters had returned from the hunt he had assumed them to have been on. The wolfs stomach was empty and aching from the hunger, breakfast would put him in a better mood and give him the energy he needed to take on this day.

Already Pekoe had an excuse on his tongue but before he could speak AnnaBeth opened her mouth beating him to it. The she-wolfs voice was quieter than before and she seemed to be somewhat distracted but by what? The silver grey brute had no idea. He had no reply other than to nod at her words, he was not hurt but even if he had been the male security wolf would never have admitted it. He opened his mouth to make an excuse so that he could leave and make his way back to camp but yet again the fae spoke before a single word had left his mouth. The voice coming from her lips was still a mere whisper and he could tell that her attention was still focused elsewhere. Now he was no hunter and it had never been a talent of his, not once in his life had the dark grey male even attempted to catch a fish so he was perplexed by the huntresses request. Why was she giving him orders? Well Beth had been polite otherwise he would probably not have listened to her. The puzzled wolf watched as the other moved cautiously towards the water his body rigid not moving a muscle only his eyes moved to follow his pack mate and his nostrils as he inhaled the cold winter air. After a moment blue orbs turned their attention on the water that was when he saw a flash of silver which could only be a fish then he understood what she was doing and why he had to remain still.

Once the fish was close enough the female made her move, her actions making it obvious to Pekoe that she possessed the hunting skill which he himself lacked. Years as a loner having to fend for himself he had learned a thing or two otherwise he would not be standing here today, starvation would have taken him. His diet back when he was a lone wolf consisted mainly of small easy prey such as rabbits,squirrels and even mice. Back then he had been much thinner but since he had joined the pack he was a healthy weight rather than being underweight as he had been before. Seeing the fish clamped firmly between the light grey she-wolfs jaws his mouth began to water. Fish always made a tasty morsel and he had not eaten fish very often in his life. The brute felt very tempted do snatch the catch from the huntress so that he could have it for himself.

What happened next well that Pekoe had not been expecting. This generosity he did not deserve it, thoughts of stealing what AnnaBeth had caught then then she went ahead an dropped the fish in the snow in front of his paws. Looking at the gift laying there before him the security wolf felt a little guilty but he was hungry so he was not going to decline this offer. "You sure?" he asked tearing his eyes away from the silver carcass at his paws and looking up at the fae he even forced his black lips into a little smile. "Yeah I'm hungry" the slate grey wolf confirmed his blue orbs wandering back down to the meal he so much wanted to sink his teeth into his moment but he held back. "Thank you" with those two words he glanced up at Beth for a moment waiting for her to do something like just nod and agree that she was sure. The slight feeling of guilt was making him be courteous instead of just taking what he had wanted. It wasn't as if she was going to say actually no you can't have it or so he thought anyway.

Looking to Astra in confusion, he mirrored her shrug and turned away. It seemed as if Whispering Winter was not interested, so he let her be. He wasn't going to make her do something that she didn't want to, and he thought that he and Astra could do just fine with bringing down some reasonable game. Without saying anything, he began his walk toward the forest, glancing over to Astra to see if the fae was following. Returning his eyes forward, he perked his ears, that every so often swiveled around and flinched at the many sounds of sudden bird screeches and chirps. His nose twitched at every scent, trying to catch any sign of rabbit, though his main aim was deer. With the two of them, they may quite possibly bring down a weak or small one, if they could manage to find one.
After a while of scouting around in search of prey, he directed the majority of his attention towards Astra though kept aware of his surroundings, and alert for any sign of nearby food. "Find anything?" He asked. His coat ruffled with every step, his fur was thicker than usual due to the season. He left deep imprints in the soft snow, easily sinking down and having to drag his legs, lifting his paws above the level of snow before plunging his paw back in for another step.

The nodded his head to her, giving off another nervous chuckle, "Yeah, slippery..." His voice quieted, as his shining chocolate amber eyes drifted down to his paws. Shaking his head slightly, he snapped himself back into the real world and looked to Meera, and a laugh escaped through his teeth as she replied with a joke. As she began to trot away to check the border, he followed, catching up by her side. Reminding himself of their job, he lifted his nose into the air and began to scent around, checking for any new wolf scents that would signal a Loner. So far, nothing.
He became a little distracted as he knew he was with his crush. Yes, he was acting ridiculously considering he was a grown brute, but he could help get a funny feeling inside of him. It made him feel if he had swallowed butterflies, and as if gravity was off and he was dancing on clouds. Of course none of this was actually happening, but to him it sure felt like it. His stomach felt odd, as if it was turning around his guts and made him feel a little sick, though really he was just nervous from the fact that there she was, the most beautiful wolf he had every seen, and very sweet.
Glancing over to Meera again, he decided he just had to tell her how pretty she was. He wouldn't yet tell her he fancied her, but thought she deserved to know about her beauty. He swallowed hard, "You know... you're very pretty." He said, at first hesitating to speak. He didn't want to sound weird or make her uncomfortable, and also was about to chicken out but forced himself to say what he wanted to.
It was very true, Meera was so pretty, Bow couldn't understand how other males hadn't fallen head-over-heels for her. He sure did.
Of course, it wasn't just her looks that made her the wonderful wolf she was. She seemed like the biggest sweetheart, and Bow had never seen her be mean in the slightest to anyone.

He hoped by saying those few words she wouldn't feel awkward and leave. He was really enjoying just being near such an amazing wolf, and hoped he hadn't made her uncomfortable in his presence.

◣.......................................................◢

The thin wolf's eyes lingered over to the mess of plush fur and small, blood-stained bones, her tongue ran over his lips as she remembered the taste, oh the wonderful taste! Each bite felt like she were growing stronger, and by the end of it she had felt like the rabbit was a full meal. Well, it was, compared to what scarce mice she may have caught, and if lucky a mole. The remains of the plump rabbit gave her that beautiful memory, not just a rabbit, and an offering of peace and friendship between the three wolves. She laughed softly as Shattered Truth tripped on her own paws, and leaned over the other bones as the sweet pup gnawed on one. Using her nose she pushed the rest closer to her, she seemed to enjoy the marrow so of course Jade was not going to get in the way of that. She watched as her ears perked, Jade became curious on what the pup's mind had brewed up an idea. Wondering what she had thought up, an invitation to join the two flowed from her mouth, and felt heart-warming to Jade. Shattered Truth was letting her join them, how could she ever say no to such an offer? An offer to live was what it was. She glanced over to White Fang, knowing that both of them had to agree if she were to join them. His shoulders lifted and dropped in a shrug, meaning it was up to her. Jade felt her excitement grow, this was her chance to regain her strength. "I'd love to." She said, and a smile spread across her muzzle. Though she did want to eventually join the pack, she didn't have the guts to, at least not yet. And she really needed to pull herself together, and with the spark of trust she felt for them, White Fang and Shattered Truth would let her find her strength again.
Even though she was so happy just thinking of the future with them, she did feel a small wave of guilt as she knew her bony figure would not help much, and rather drag them down. It would be one more mouth to feed, but not much more help. She had little muscle on her body, not nearly enough for her to develop the good hunting skills she lost, and definitely not enough to defend herself if the wrong rouge came along. As a group she would benefit, she'd be provided with food just like Shattered Truth had said and there was always strength in numbers.
Just then, something happened that had not happened for a long while. Her thin tail began to shift, then sway, and then it began to wag.

She lifted herself up onto her paws, and came closer to Shattered Truth, than scooped up the pup's bone and swept away, her eyes narrowing into determined slits, her eyes focused on her with a mischievous grin. She had stolen her bone, and intended to play. She crouched down in the classic play-crouch position, her with her back bent the bumps of her spine could be seen as lumps on her coat. Shadowed lines dripped from her sides, the show of her ribcage squeezing inside her pelt.

AnnaBeth watched Pekoe closely her light amber eyes studying his every move. She noticed he seemed a bit surprised by her offer of the food, taken off guard perhaps by her kindness? She also thought she might have seen something that could have resembled guilt in those stunning blue eyes of his. Not that this brute would have anything to feel guilty about, unless he had been thinking of attacking her or something like that. Beth also noticed Pekoe was sort of a prickly brute, he was talking nice enough she supposed, and he had manners. When he did talk however he seemed to still have a slight edge to his voice, like he couldn't exactly make it sound completely kind, but Beth hardly cared. She had been around prickly wolves her whole life, they didn't scare her in the least. About the only thing that would really make her a little nervous about Pekoe was that he was higher up then her with his rank, even that didn't bother her as much as it should. As long as she was a hunter he shouldn't have a problem talking with her, besides hunters kept the pack fed. Perhaps hunters were just as important as security wolves in some ways. As her thoughts drifted to how hunters and security wolves were similar to each other she almost missed Pekoe's words. The "You sure?" and "Yeah I'm hungry" almost hadn't reached her ears. Thankfully she hadn't been totally lost and had just caught the words.

With a smile she nodded. "It's all yours, I can always catch myself something else, I am a hunter after all. Anyway we hunters are supposed to feed the pack before eating anything ourselves. At least I think so." AnnaBeth figured some hunters probably skipped that fact in the winter months, even she did sometimes. Wasn't that what she had come to do in the first place? Catch a fish for herself? Now it was her turn to feel guilty, at least assuming Pekoe had been feeling guilty. The grey and white fea looked at the water and sighed to herself. She really needed to learn to practice what she preached. At Pekoe's, thank you, she turned back to the security brute and smiled once more. "Anytime." She said and was surprised to find she really did mean it. She wasn't sure if she should start a conversation now, maybe she should just leave and let him eat. Somehow she didn't like that idea much, she hadn't talked to hardly any of the pack since joining. Now that she was talking to a pack member, sort of, she found she didn't want to stop. She wanted, no, she needed and craved a friendship. She needed to be able to talk and laugh with someone, someone who would understand her. Of course Pekoe probably wasn't the right wolf for the friendship job, but was there really in harm in trying? Maybe deep down he craved a friendship too, or maybe if she tried to talk he would rip her throat out so she wouldn't talk ever again. She pictured that happening and wondered what the Alpha would do if that really happened. Not dwelling to much on what could happen she plunged into some sort of conversation.

"So how's the fish?" She asked seeing as he had started eating it while she had been busy with her thoughts yet again. "Fish are my favorite meal I think. Maybe not as filling as some prey but they have a taste to them that just makes my mouth water thinking about it." She hoped she didn't sound like she was rambling, talking about fish was the only thing that had come to her mind. Then the image of when she first caught a fish with her sister came to her and the fea burst out laughing, not caring in the least that Pekoe probably thought she had gone crazy on him. Oh what a site that first fishing trip had been. She had just caught the fish and had turned to smile at Libby, who had said she would ever catch anything, when the fish suddenly came alive and slapped her in the face so hard with it's tail she had yelped and sent it flying. The slippery fish had then landed on Libby's head making her squeal. Then the two sister had proceeded to chase the fish along the bank till they caught it again. It really must have been a site to watch two young feas chase a flipping and jumping fish down a river bank, squealing whenever it flipped up in the face's. Beth recalled she and Libby had not been able to stop laughing after that did catch it. And to this day Beth couldn't help but laugh about it. Of course now Beth made sure the fish she caught were good and dead before ever smiling or laying them on the ground.

{I hope you don't mind that I sort of had Pekoe eating without you saying he was.}

Silence speaks.
Silence screams .
Silence talks louder then any word,
That cuts through the heart like a sword.

Red could see the gears running in Ryder's mind as his thoughts wandered. Her curiosity was slightly peeked, but she never asked him about it. His silence stretched on, failing to make the black she-wolf uneasy as she waited for a response. She was used to it. Every wolf had their right of speech, but if they wanted to stay quiet, so be it. Her emotionless amber eyes swept over camp a few times, watching Tyson and Astra leave camp. The Beta, Whispering Winter stayed behind, raising Red's suspicion of her feelings towards the Alpha. Angling her ears towards the light-pelted fae, the Security wolf decided to jump to conclusions, although it wasn't in her nature, and assume that Whispering Winter thought of Tyson as more than a friend. Since she hadn't joined the 2 on their patrol, Red could just imagine that the Beta was hoping that it would only be the two of them, but Astra had to come along and then they were three. The black fae couldn't remember just how many times she'd seen this before. Jealousy. Breaking the hearts of so many wolves out there. Looking away from them, her calculating eyes drifted back to rest on Ryder again, watching as he suddenly halted and turned to look a her.

She saw the confusion as he watched her, saw his mind working again as he wondered what angle she was playing at. And then the small flash of suspicion as he must have remembered something. What? He thinks I'll lead him on and then drop him or something? Highly unlikely. That was just an empty thought, but Red didn't realize just how close to home she had been. Cocking her head to the side, she waited for him to make a decision. She wouldn't be insulted if he left. After all, maybe he wanted to spend time with a wolf who would actually socialize and talk, not simply nod or shake her head. But with another look at camp, she realized mostly everyone was gone. Seemed she was the best choice. Flicking her ears, the black wolf sat patiently, a ghost of a smile curling the corners of her lips up as he came back. It was a fake, polite smile, but a smile none the less. Angling her ears towards him, her nose caught the faintest trace of mouse blood? That can't be right. Why would there be mouse blood? We don't hunt those tiny little critters. But her nose picked up the unmistakable scent of mice, and she couldn't help but wonder if maybe Ryder had caught one. Wouldn't surprise me. In winter you catch everything as long as it's food. Chasing the thoughts away, she watched him lie down in front of her, his yellow eyes not trained on her at all.

As he spoke, Red's ears caught the slightest difference in his voice, wondering why it had been there. She didn't have time to dwell on it for long, because he cleared his throat and continued speaking. As he mentioned bothering her, Red simply shook her head. She quite enjoyed his company, if anything. Listening to him as he asked her a question, she shook her head. As he added something, the black fae couldn't help but feel a little hurt. It made her want to prove him wrong and to actually speak, but she couldn't bring herself to say the words. Pinning her ears, Red looked away from the other Security brute and just look up at the tree she was sitting under, fascinated with the few leaves that were still clinging onto the branches even though it was the middle of winter.

Trust nobody but make them trust you.
I give them my false smiles do what ever it takes but my actions
display only a shadow of my true self. I lust not for love only for power.
If I were ever to choose a mate it would be for his strength and not my
love for him for I love nobody. A fight is not finished until you tuck your
tail between your legs and flee. If my life is at risk I will flee but I swear
I will have my revenge someday. I know nothing but you know even less.
-Your false friend Astra

As soon as the alpha was in motion Astra followed moving forwards swiftly glad to be in motion once more. She moved at a steady tempo adjusting it only slightly to match Tysons pace. There was silence neither of the two wolves spoke, the only sound was that of the snow crunching beneath their paws with every single step. Every now and again the sound of a startled bird or just one singing would cause the delta to pivot her ears towards the source of the noises. Th ebony she-wolf was in her element here, hunting was her passion so she kept an eye out for anything that might lead them to prey. Tracks in the snow, maybe the sound of an animal of prey moving over the snow or most importantly the scents that filled the air.

The sound of the males voice from her left broke the silence. Astra had not been successful in detecting any sign of prey yet but she remembered what she had discovered earlier that morning when she had visited that clearing near the edge of the packs territory in search of rabbits. "No" the onyx fae shook her head "but this morning when I was looking for rabbits I saw a small herd of deer" she informed the alpha "Only a small herd, a buck and two or three does" the two of them might be able to manage what she had decided against even trying earlier. "They will probably have moved on from where I saw them but we can follow their tracks?" the pitch black female suggested turning her head slightly to glance over at the packs leader.

They were still at least five minutes of brisk trotting away from where Astra had seen the hoofed prey animals that morning and they would have to head to the west a little more to get there. "I'll lead the way if you would like?" the female offered changing her course slightly to head in the direction of the clearing. She slowed her pace slightly waiting to see what Tyson would say but she doubted he would have any objections. What she had seen that morning was quite a lucky find even if then it had not been what she was searching for. It was an opportunity that they could not let slip by them in her opinion. If they waited too long the deer were likely just to wander off the packs territory and go elsewhere. It was winter they could not afford to let prey go this easily, they at least had to try.
