Where did he go wrong?
Okay, maybe he was being a
bit too harsh on himself. But, both Clay AND Moon had pups? Two Tone knew where the mother of Clay's children ('What a weird concept,' Two Tone thought to himself) but what about Moon's? A new mother was willing to let a small pup go from her? It was foreign concept to the alpha.
The pack had migrated north, towards the cooler climate in the mountains. Two Tone would need to keep his hunters more active, having more mouths to feed than the previous seasons. That being said, as a leader he would have to pull his weight too. An alpha could remain perched at the den, remaining watchful of the home while others worked, but this area did not have many, if any at all, rivals to worry about. Two Tone wasn't worried...yet.
A new scent entered his nostrils. He frowned, following his nose. He would previously retract his former thought as his dual colored eyes narrowed. Maybe it was paranoia having younger pups nearby, or maybe he was growing as an alpha, but Two Tone was finding himself to be a bit more cautious around strangers.
However, when his eyes stopped on the darker female, his stance soften slightly as he watched her. What was a lone she-wolf doing here?
