Clover Hills

Nikolaus Avena (Loner)
Nikolaus frowned to himself as Miley told him they were dangerous for killing four purebloods and reminding him in that sentence that she was a pureblood and so would their pups be. "Can you not ask these friends of yours to set up protections for you here so you don't have to leave?" he questioned. Niko was uncertain why the woman seemed to be a priority in his life. Was it because she was carrying his pups or because she was his friend, at least he thought so, and wanted her safe? Or was it for both reasons? Yet, Miley seemed determined to leave if needed for her safety and the safety of their children, and promised that she would bring them to see him, placing her hand over his own which caused him to look down at it and thus miss her putting a hand to her stomach. "You will call me if anything happens," said Niko. "I may not be able to answer my phone if I'm a wolf obviously but I'll make sure to return your calls. If you're in trouble, call and I'll be there."

As she asked what he wanted to do, saying that Gabriel knew nothing of her family and she didn't want the other woman to worry, the male's frown deepened but he did not push it, only nodding reluctantly. "What about your cabin?" he questioned. "I'm not sure. Are you up for seeing a movie and di..." he looked at the clock. "Dinner? If not, I can show you at least where my parents' house is. If you want anyway." Comet Comet

Gabriel Haven (Alpha Female-Haven)
She really needed to issue more patrols around the territory. She couldn't trust Ash that was for sure. Speaking of Ash...a howl pierced the air causing the woman's face to twist into a scowl. That loner...maybe she should have it chased into Winslow and let it be killed there. There was a thought...it would likely fit in better over there anyway. As for this loner...she turned her attentions on the female as it shifted and spoke. So this was a pureblood of a lesser line then...why wasn't the council doing something about the lesser pureblood lines? Well, Gabriel certainly wasn't going to call up her mother and ask. Gabriel didn't seem at all bothered about her clothes being in tatters on the ground around her from shifting back, instead she just watched as the woman introduced herself as Coyote but to call her Cyo or Ember if desired.

"Disturbing events," Gabriel said. "Events between my pack members are not your business." She could guess what event the woman was talking about...she would be having a conversation with Miley and Ash about not being aware of their surroundings. It was just something else to add onto the omega's talk at a later point. Tapping her fingers against arm in thought as she crossed them over her chest, she listened to the other saying that she had killed the lone wolf that had posed a potential threat to the pack, the woman was somewhat disturbed by the fact that here was another loner that had risked their life for her pack. She glanced down at the body and then back up at the other wolf. "Aside from your fighting skills, what can you offer for a reason to gain a position within Haven?" questioned Gabriel.

Ice (Omega-Phantasm)
Ice tilted his head at Aria and then looked nervously at Vince before scurrying out of the cave into the sunshine and following the woman the few miles to her car, being sure to walk as far from her as possible in case Vince was watching. His name being spoken along with the questions fired off at him and sounding hesitant on Aria's part caused him to turn his head towards her as they walked. Asked if Vince hated her for butting into his life, the adolescent shook his head. "I think Vince was just surprised that you showed up within the middle of the forest like you did and his wolf, that had never met you before sensed it had to protect you. I don't think that makes him upset with you...well maybe for wandering off from the safety of your friends...." the albino teen flinched at that as if he expected the female to hit him... "but I think Vince feels guilty that you were attacked by Jasper twice and turned into a wolf, that you couldn't have kept your innocence and humanity unlike him. The beta worked with...well he was in the same place I was when the general found us and bit both of us."

Ushered over to the car, Ice got in and looked out the windshield and passenger window, not having been in a car in some time. "With the general having expressed possible interest in you and Vince...you don't have to worry about Jasper or I...I don't fancy getting into a fight with either of them and Jasper's not willing to get between something the general wants and the general himself. So I guess Niko will continue carrying on Phantasm in a way...least I think..." he wasn't entirely sure. Looking towards Aria again as he was asked if he ever thought of running away the teen shook his head. "Where would I go? Winslow's a death sentence, I don't know how the good pack is or where they are really, and my parents are dead. Then I was sold by another relative who kidnapped me and wound up in the same place your brother was in time. I don't think Matthew meant to bite but wolves tend to bite during...Matthew calls it mating and generally when they..." He fell silent until they got to the town and Ice was asked about where he wanted to shop. The teen shrugged, not really having a preference. "We should probably focus on you first as you're in more dire need and then pick up food on the way back though if you want something different to eat besides wild game, you'll probably have to pick up some coolers with ice to keep food fresh

ARIA​

Attention flickering to the omega, she felt her pace grow slower as she listened to what he had said. With a sly smirk, she gently shook her head. “Hm,” She shrugged, putting her hands into the back pockets of her borrowed jeans. “My friends were going to wrong way or, at least, a much more boring, flat-plain of a walk. Wouldn’t have been much of an expedition,” At the mention of his wolf, Aria subconsciously nodded. “I think that we all probably have an instinct to help those that need it, though it may not necessarily be obvious. Unless he just sensed that we were related, I guess. And that would make sense,” noticing his flinch, she frowned. Did he think she would hurt him? He was taller than her for starters. “Ice?” She questioned again, looking over at him. “I’m not going to hurt you for talking.” She replied, feeling slightly sympathetic and sorry for him. “Losing humanity, not innocence. I lost innocence long ago when Vince disappeared and our parents went A-wall and I suddenly had to mature 10 years,” Aria mentioned casually, eyes glazing with a fiery anger. “And, it’s not his fault that Jasper bit me. It’s not Jasper’s fault either given he didn’t mean to,” Looking over to the trees ahead, lining the forest in such a picturesque way that it didn’t seem real, she felt herself calm and relieve herself from her past and taunting memories. “Wait,” she frowned, suddenly grasping what ice had said. “What place? Vince never mentioned that he’d gone anywhere else?” Now slightly irritated at the lack of information she had been given, she bit the inside of her cheek, awaiting an honest reply. Aria knew she could rely on Ice for honesty at least.

As they spoke, she drove, careful and cautious of the highway and the small, surrounding village markets. “Possible interest? How’d you mean?” She questioned as she reversed into a parking space, holding the back of Ice’s headrest to get a clearer view as she turned to look out her back window. For a moment, Aria sat silently, the quiet buzz of the radio suddenly not refreshing, now somewhat isolating. At the mention of Matthew having interest in her, her stomach seized slightly, and she couldn’t understand whether she felt proud or disgusted. Pressing her head against the head rest and looking up at the ceiling, her brows knitted together. If Jasper wasn’t willing to do something, being alpha himself, should she have been worried? She didn’t know.

“That sounds awful; I’m so sorry, Ice,” Aria felt herself pout slightly at the thought of what the young boy had been through and could barely be 14 at most. Her eyes snapped to the seatbelt buckle as she undid it and stepped out of the car, locking it when both people were out. “ Matthew really had mated with everyone so far it seemed. “Okay, lets go......there,” Pointing towards a shop, she began to make her way to it. In which, she bought herself several pairs of jeans and jumpers, also underwear and cropped as well as normal tops. Still, she didn’t feel like it was fair to buy herself so much and leave Ice out. “Pick some stuff you like out,”

Miley shook her head, "not my friends, my parents. I have to listen." She told him and gave him a smile when he said to call him if anything happened. "I promise I'll call." She said, before taking another sip of her tea as it has finally cooled down. She would try to come back, even if it wasn't something to do for the council, she would come visit the friends she made. "Dinner already and you're still eating breakfast?" She asked, a smile on her face as she questioned. She was quiet hungry, running around everywhere and stuff. Luckily she didn't fight today, but running around and arguing nonstop with a Omega and a loner tired her out.

She listened to him ask more questions about her leaving and her cabin, chuckling softly. "The cabin was temporary remember? If I come back I will still he at this place, but remember I did tell you I don't know how long I'll be here." She removed her hand from his and got up as one more pang went through her stomach. Maybe it was sitting down that was making her stomach hurt, she didn't know but she didn't let on for her pain, not wanting to ruin Niko's day by worrying for her and their pups. "Sure, I would love to see the house." She said to him, walking around a bit to make sure that she got some exercise in her so her stomach didn't hurt.

Ice (Omega-Phantasm)
Ice was relatively silent as Aria spoke about the difference between losing one's humanity and losing one's innocence. Saying she had lost her innocence long ago when the beta had left his family. She didn't seem to blame Vince or Jasper for her being a werewolf and on top of that she told him she wasn't going to punish him for talking. However, perhaps he had said too much when Aria suddenly questioned him on what he had said about Vince and him being in the same place when Matthew had bitten them. "Vince and I worked in a brothel...Vince once he got here into Clover Hills as some form of guard," said Ice. He didn't mention what he had done in the brothel. Instead, Aria talked about stuff, sayings he was sorry for him when he relaid some of his own history to her. When they got to a store, she told him to pick out some clothing. "I don't have money," said Ice, "not for stuff like this...what money Matthew gave me is for food for the pack." ElectricDandellion ElectricDandellion

Nikolaus Avena (Loner)
Nikolaus was confused. He thought her parents were dead so why would she need to listen to dead people? "I thought your parents were dead?" he questioned. "Well...it's the only thing romantic that I can think of to do," he said with a sheepish smile on his face as she questioned him about dinner when he had just finished his own breakfast. Not knowing the pain she was in as she stood from the table, he brightened as she said that she wanted to see his parents' house and said she would call him when she moved, something he was grateful for, strange as that was. "Good. Well, if you're ready we can go now," he said before rising to his feet and heading for the door, hearing what she said about the cabin being temporary which he had forgotten. When she would come outside and shut the door, he would lead her, still holding his orange juice bottle, through the streets until they got to a two story house with an attic and basement, the house having two bedrooms and even a utility room on the first floor that doubled as a mud room. The house itself had workable black shutters with a stained glass mural of animals over the door. The house itself was painted a yellow color, his mother's idea as she hadn't liked the look of the white cookie cutter house like the others. "This is it," said Niko. Comet Comet
 
{EDIT: added a paragraph for Zeph cuz I always forget him. Lol. Sorry for not responding earlier I was in school and work. I also intend to change Coyote’s background as I found one much more suitable.}

Coyote mulled over the question. A similar feeling Zephyr had earlier. Every pack had a initiation but if she had been a part of another pack what was her rank and why had they all been slaughtered all but her supposedly. After coming to a conclusion it seemed she had an answer. “In my previous pack I was a alpha. I was supposed to marry the alpa Male. It was supposed to be a big thing. I have had ample training in hunting and guarding skills as you could see from the wolf laying dead on the ground I can hold my own fairly well. After my fiancée was slaughtered I went into a sort of depression I guess. I’m not really sure why it wasn’t like I loved him. Anyway. I killed the hunters who murdered him and my family.” Zephyr’s ears twitched. She had killed a hunter. A hunter that was skilled enough to slaughter her whole family pack it seemed. But not her. His mind couldn’t get away from that. Finally he voiced his concern. Shifting his bones sounded as if they were wet fresh celery. He stood unashamed now. How moon coloured skin practically glowing.

“This being the same hunter that killed your whole family but not you....” he responded.

Coyote rolled her eyes. Audibly. She could practically be heard doing so. “Well that dear wolf was because the hunter who brought down my family was.... well he was my father.” She paued but not because she was adding dramatic effect. Instead it was to reveal her arms. Her neck. Her legs. They all were laced with scars. Burns they looked like now. Fresh some other age old as time itself. She had forgotten how long it had been since she was tortured. Probably since she was four years old. Maybe even younger. “My father managed to torture me every day from when I was young until he killed my family. I am a firm believer of the simple fact that he deserved to die. And I bare no shame as to how I killed him. I am an expert tracker. If he taught me anything it was to take revenge and not let a single survivor live. My pack may have been small but I was trusted among it.” She akipped right over the details of her being in a human collage to gain more knowledge and understanding. She was in a class the day her father turned on the pack. She had bared his scares for years to keep her pack from knowing. Keeping them safe. That collage was her only haven away from him and her fiancée had paid for her classes. Though she never imprinted on him once he loved her with all his heart and it was sweet.

Zephyr seemed sceptical of her claiming her father was a hunter and even less so when she bared the painful marks of his torture. If her father was a hunter and she was a pure blood that meant that he was a werewolf too. Perhaps he was turned and imprinted similarly to how his mother imprinted on his father. Except to another wolf. He didn’t trust her. He wanted to kill her. An urge he wouldn’t understand. He couldn’t at least not until he would get to know her. He just wanted the threat of whatever she brought with her eradicated. But the leader of the pack was not him.
 
Miley cocked a eyebrow when he mentioned about it being the only romantic thing he could think of. "Nikolaus Avena, the father of my pups, wants to take me on a date." She giggled as she followed him out the house and closed the door behind her and followed him. She couldn't get over the thought of him of all people taking her out to dinner. So many males in Haven have tried and all have been turned down. She felt giddy, Niko surprising her when he said it. She didn't say anything else about it until they got to the house, looking at it with a smile. It was for sure different than the others and she liked it. "Your parents, they know you're a wolf? And they're not one themselves?" She asked, walking closer up to it.

Fenris trotted through the woods, irritated by the heat. He was used to Alaska, where it stayed below 50. He wasn't built for warm temperatures, this this was scorching by his standards. His coat was thick, brown, and lush. His paws were black, much similar to his sisters, in which he was looking for. Why else would he venture from his Alaskan Pack, his family? Tor was his life. He hadn't seen her since the accident, but her face haunted his dreams. Fenris smelled her faintly- very faintly. There were so many different smells and experiences: Faint blood, so many wolves- a little more than Alaska. He had even left the one he fell in love with. It was a hero's errand, leaving her, but it was for the best. He wasn't good enough for her- she was the Alpha female, after all, and he was just a hunter. Perhaps he could find a new home here, and become worth something more.

The sunlight filtered through the green leaves- in the light he seemed to glow with vitality and health. He realized he was heading deeper into another pack's territory with every step, and there was no sign of Tor's scent anywhere anymore. His only lead lost, Fenris growled with irritation and lay down, tail flicking in annoyance. Perhaps he could hunt.​
 
Astiel Stormchaser - Warrior - Haven Pack
Huffing softly as she told him not to worry, Astiel didn't answer. He couldn't help his anxious moments, and was very much glad when she only asked if the nest was new, and didn't complain that he'd moved things about again. It helped him calm himself down, especially after nightmares, and he gave a small smile when she moved to the nest and curled in the blankets. It made him happy, that she liked it, and he knew it wasn't something he'd be willing to change in the future. Well... He could add more blankets and pillows, but he doubted others around the house would appreciate him stealing theirs. Still, he curled up against her side quietly, pulling a blanket over her gently.

"I kinda... Changed it this morning?" He mumbled, "You don't mind, right?" He asked, shuffling close
Azrael Marshadow (Omega-Haven)
After passing on Gabriel's message, Azrael was told to pass on information to the pack about Tobias stocking up food. It was during this time that Amanda spoke to him. "Ash is apparently being punished. As for your words on pups, unless you plan on retiring after you give birth, I will likely be the one watching two to six children, depending on how many you are carrying in addition to Mary and Red," Azrael said. "If you'll excuse me, I should do what Tobias has asked of me." Mia rushed out before Tobias came home and then he heard the warrior heading for the stairs. Snorting to himself, he relaid the information to Amanda as she was closest, went into the living room to inform Mary and Red they were to remain in the house, and then headed upstairs to speak to Eliza and Astiel, following their scents to their room. Knocking on the door, he waited for someone to answer. Mentioned: @SpiritualShrub @WolfOfProphecys @Veltsu

ELIZA
Eliza rolled herself into the blankets, cushioned comfortably in a way that supported her back and her stomach. She audibly groaned at the sudden comfort and stability, smiling towards the direction of her mate. The way he’d nested it like that of a carrying omega she’d admired. It was a certain skill that she hadn’t yet acquired herself, and probably wouldn’t have been able to given her heavy pregnancy. As he lay against her, she leaned into him, placing her head softly onto his shoulder. Eliza hadn’t yet even thought about wearing a blanket, but since Astiel had covered her in one, she realised how much she appreciated the gesture. Gently, she placed a kiss on husband cheek. “I love it,” Eliza commented gratefully, curling her arms around him in an embrace.

The sound of knocks on the door made her suddenly startle, gripping the materials around her tightly as she eased herself upwards. Placing one swollen foot in front of the other, she opened the door, a friendly face on the other side. With a welcoming smile, although she soon realised Azrael wouldn’t be able to see her, she began to speak. “Morning, Azrael. You alright?”
 
Gabriel Haven (Alpha Female-Haven)
Gabriel remained silent as she listened to the female's story concerning her life and what had brought her to Clover Hills. In there was her skills....hunting and fighting along with guarding. Alpha Female wouldn't do the wolf any good...Gabriel planned on remaining alpha unless the pack turned on her or the council stepped in and decided to do something about her lackluster results in control. From the way the female held herself, Gabriel assumed correctly this female was no sub, her words of formerly being an alpha of her birth pack being confirmation that this wolf would need to be put in her place like the rest of the pack sooner or later...preferably sooner.

The woman didn't particularly care where either wolf came from. "I'll tell you the same thing I told Zephyr here. I don't care about your past. We don't kill or hunt humans like Winslow. In fact, don't get in any fights with Winslow at all. You're free to kill them on the full moons for all I care if they show up here looking for females." Why those idiots had trespassed into her territory she hadn't the slightest idea. She did need help though managing this pack...and this wolf had killed a loner and a real wolf at that Still there was the issue of how she had come here, same with Zephyr, let alone how they had heard of Haven. As to whether she trusted the woman, especially when she showed off her scars? No...she would be an idiot to blatantly trust someone she wasn't familiar with, especially the lesser purebloods. The woman kept her arms crossed as she studied the wolf. Just how was this wolf able to survive an attack by a hunter and survive...even if that hunter were the other's father?

"You will be put on probation," Gabriel finally decided. "As Beta Female. Should you pass your probation by the next moon, the rank will be rightfully yours. Should you betray me...either of you...you will be exiled from the pack and lucky to escape with your lives. Now...assuming you both accept these conditions and rules, welcome to Haven.

"The pack lives together within our home, there are rooms on the first and second floors. Some rooms are already occupied. Zephyr, I ask that you help Astiel, Tobias, Derrick and Azrael whom you will meet tonight most likely sometime this spring under our elderly healer's direction to build a greenhouse for her and any future healers the pack may or may not gain." Gabriel looked over the pair of wolves before her. "For now, I will take you both home and you can either eat something or you can find rooms. The only meal we eat together as a pack is dinner, breakfast and lunch you are free to eat wherever or skip, so long as it is not the living room or the infirmary.

"As for you Coyote, you'll be in charge of helping assist the pack. That doesn't mean killing people who piss you off. Whether you'll have to fight to keep your position or not I couldn't say. I will demote either of you if you step out of line, exile or kill you depending on the infraction. Your main duties are to protect the pack and the pups, perhaps lead hunts as needed and take over if I am unable to do so due to sickness or away. Should I get a beta male, you will respect him but are not required to be mates. You'll be equals..the only way you would become mates is if I died and you advanced to alpha. Oh...the pack...well my warriors will be given an order today. But for your benefit Zephyr, there is a loner that has repeatedly been a thorn in my side since I took over this pack. She is to be killed on sight and is known to hang out with a foolish omega teenager. I expect that order to at least be attempted to follow." Gabriel did catch the scent of yet another loner, causing the woman to release an irritated breath of air. However, perhaps Derrick whose scent she also caught somewhere within the territory, would deal with that. She would wait for the pair of wolves to say something before turning back into her wolf form, not before saying to follow her and then set off at an easy run through the territory back to the house.

Nikolaus Avena (Loner)
Niko would not admit it on his life but Miley's ease with him and semi acceptance of what he did for a living surprised him and made him happy. He also thought she was about to make fun of him but instead she just giggled like a schoolgirl when she said that he wanted to take him on a date before nodding silently. Watching as she stepped closer to the house, he was questioned on if his parents knew he was a wolf. "Yes, they know what I am," said Niko, "and no they're still humans. I'd never make them into werewolves but they are more accepting of it then they were in the beginning given it was all strange and new to them." Comet Comet

Azrael Marshadow (Omega-Haven)
Azrael waited patiently for the door to Astiel and Eliza's room to open, the scent of Eliza soon reaching his nose as he heard the door open and then Eliza's voice a few moments later. "Tobias sent me to spread the word throughout the pack that he has stocked the smokehouse and freezer. Ash is also apparently being punished...I expect Gabriel will be informing the pack why that is tonight," he said. "Anyway, I have to keep an ear on the pups so...I'll leave you two lovebirds to whatever you were doing before I passed on the message." Assuming he wasn't questioned, he would then go to check on Rose and Bill before heading back downstairs to check keep an ear on Mary and Red.

"that's good that they are accepting of it." She told him, turning her back to the house and looking at him with a big smile. "So, have you thought of names for the pups? I don't know how many I'm having... But I would like your opinion." She said, placing her hand on her stomach. It was hurting again, a pang on her left side this time. Pregnancy cramps? A different kind of pregnancy cramps? She really wasn't sure but she was blowing it off at the time being, her attention on Niko. She had a few names in mind, three names in fact, but she wanted to hear his.

Coyote was surprised. She could tell with one side glance Zephyr wouldn’t be the one to hang out and just read a magazine with. Maybe empty a magazine into him but he didn’t give off those warm and fuzzy vibes. Of course neither did Gabrial. The slightest twitnge of frustration played on her brows. Coyote’s large ear flicked making her piercings tingle together. She could scent the loner and wondered herself what brought them here. For herself she merely stumbled upon the pack. What it was doing in the middle of Montana she would never know. All she was aware was this was a land-locked state. Using her instincts she could tell the pack lined a great river. It washed over the land and the forest rolling hills went on for miles.

She used a sizeable fortune to get here having taken a plane to Washington state. It was on the west coast and she rather liked this state. Cool temperatures and lots of rain to wash away the scents of the big city. It was here where she was confronted by a wolf that more than set her on edge. He ignored her and walked down the street. There were lots of wolves in that state. It wouldn’t surprise her any at all if some followed her. From there she ran. She ran across the state to a not so cool side but somehow she could tell she was still in Washington. Then for a brief time she was running along a beaten and dark ground where she smelled plants and fires. The state had been ravaged by these a while back. But she could still smell the burning and it in turn burned her nose a little. Getting to Montana wasn’t hard from there. She still had a sizeable fortune from her pack. Her family dominated most of the European peninsula outside of the pack that dominated England.

She never understood pack boundaries much. As they were defined like a visible line in the sand. In her hometown they allowed cross mating and often offered up their best females and males to be males to the surrounding packs. Coyote remembered giving away many of her pack members to wonderful packs. She was stuck on the memories of her past when she was judged by Zephyr rather forcibly. Her ears flicked back and she let a warning snarl through her lips. Quilling it quickly as she could she snatched up her wallet. A phone and small purple velvet dress. It was short and covered most of her body. Clearly she was more prepared then Zephyr who actually missed his jeans and sweatshirt torn to shreds from the transformation.

They would have to learn to live together especially since Zephyr would have to build a shack. Physical labour didn’t bother him to much really. If anything it gave him an excuse to not wear a shirt. When they began to run he kept up with them well feeling the mist from seemingly out of nowhere upon his skin. Coyoty felt it too. It felt amazing. Then a rumble of thunder and coyoty looked up at the clouds. Sometimes she prayed for different powers though if she was careful hers were even considered too powerful. She shook herself. Chasing the wind as they ran across the grounds.
 
Nikolaus Avena (Loner)
Nko was taken aback at the question before shaking his head in the negative. "I haven't give it much thought on what to name the pups," he said. All of the pups come to think of it, but he was mainly focusing on Miley's pups for now, given she was the one he mostly saw. "Kind of hard to do when you don't know what gender the pups will be." What would happen if an ultrasound were performed on a werewolf? Comet Comet

Gabriel Haven (Alpha Female-Haven)
Getting no arguments or indeed responses, Gabriel let out howl as she ran to Derrick to check out the scent of the newest loner within the territory, the alpha not bothering to relay a mental message to the male as he should be able to figure out what she wanted from the howl. As for when she got home, she would speak to Tobias if he were home and then speak to Ash though should probably introduce the pack to their new members but that could wait. As the trio of wolves ran, the alpha's ears twitched as she heard the sound of a thunderstorm and glanced up at the sky. Exhaling a sigh, the canine led the two back to the house, heading around to the backyard and to the mudroom since Coyote was covered in blood. Shifting into her human form to open the door, the woman grabbed a change of clothing and pointed Coyote to the shower. "Get washed up, head out of the mudroom and down the hall where to the left you'll come across a door with a Japanese medical symbol on it. Go in there and have Suzu tend to your wounds," said Gabriel as she got dressed. "Zephyr, you may also need to seek out Suzu if needed, depending on if you have any injuries or malnutrition from your travels. She's an elder and our only healer sadly after the last one fell off a cliff." There was a hint of annoyance at the young healer's stupidity. "Afterwards, you may both come into the living room and find rooms or eat. Excuse me," she said and left the two there. "Try not to kill each other or start fights," she called over her shoulder before heading out of the mudroom and seeing Mary and Red still in the living room.

Tobias was also sitting there waiting for her. "Tobias, apologies for keeping you waiting," she said as she sat down in a chair. "Don't bite my head off but your mate, last I checked was in one of the bathrooms upstairs. As she freaked out when I entered, I left her there so she wouldn't injure herself. She doesn't seem to be getting the nutrition she needs. Have you thought of getting her checked out by Suzu or finding a hospital or a clinic that will check on her to make sure everything is progressing alright?" VeiledPariah VeiledPariah

Fenris looked up sharply at the howl, ears twisting back and forth to determine the source. He got up after having a nice nap and yawned, stretching, not too worried about the upcoming conflict. In fact, he was itching for the prospect of a battle, but he also enjoyed the idea of being accepted. How could he prove himself? Certainly not by killing their pack members.
Right then his stomach growled, and his tail began to wag. Prey was good, where he came from. When entering another's territory, you offer them a kill with a Kato's blessing. The brown wolf shrugged his massive shoulders as he stretched, missing the feel of snow beneath his paws. All there was here was moss, nothing of value. What the hell was moss even for?
Head down low to the ground, smelling for tracks, Fenris began to travel once more, following the scent of a herd of elk. He also made sure to be aware of all his surroundings, lest the wolves leap out and attack. Hopefully his size would make them hesitate, because He wasn't the best fighter. And he hated to run from fights using his powers, so he'd have to fight. Fenris barked out a laugh quietly.
 
Miley shrugged. "You're right. Probably can't name them until they're born." She said, looking back at the house and the houses around them. "Probably weird that we're standing outside your house." She chuckled, looking back at him. "Unless you want to go do something before dinner, I don't know what, but it's your choice." Her thoughts went back to her stomach when they talked about the pups, her stomach being small and painful at the moment. She looked around for somewhere to sit, only finding a curb.

She walked towards it and leveled herself down to the curb, a hand on her stomach and one behind her to level herself. She honestly wasn't feeling too good, too much pain in her stomach. She kept a smile on her face though so Niko didn't worry about anything.

The male sat patiently noting Red and Mary were still inside the living room.
He stood as Gabriel entered bowing his head lightly in respect and telling her of the hunt and updating her on the borders safety before she began speaking.
The girls presence behind them left him unable to get as irritated as he wanted to truly be when Gabriel entered and as she always had, got straight to the point.
"She is fine, I'm handling it."
He replied rather quickly although he was unable to hide back the frustration in his tone.
He knew the woman meant well and just wanted what was best for Angelica but she didn't know. In retrospect neither did Tobias but she was his mate and it was his problem not the Alphas.
In order to reconcile or at least mitigate his rude demeanor he sighed and nodded.
"I have already spoken with her about these things. I will get her looked at as soon as she is well enough to do so Alpha"
He added the rank despite their obvious knowledge of one another from the past and both being pure bloods of prestigious families. That mattered little to the warrior though and he would follow her orders like a soldier should.
Still there was more that needed to be said but the male approached the topic with tact so as not to set her off.
"You know soon you will be down for the count as well, I can't defend this place alone Gabriel...our numbers are not what they should be and between those carrying children and your punishments. We don't have many wolves left"
He explained hoping to use the logic that if they were attacked that only a handful of the pack would be any good in a fight.
Tobias betrayed a look towards the hallway in which the door remained locked where Ash resided.
"I understand you are having to pick up the pieces, and it has to be hard....but Gabriel..."
The male placed a hand on the Alpha females shoulder it was a demonstration of loyalty and comfort.
"We are not Winslow and you shouldn't stoop to their level when running this pack, I came here because i knew you could provide us sanctuary and now this pack is as much a part of me as it is for you...I am not going to watch it fall apart"
He expressed sincerely but the cold chill of his words held their true meaning as his eyes flashed their clandestine blue as he brought his hand back.
"If you need help, let me know....and release the girl for Christ's sake, i will deal with her"
Tobias finished as he tossed a glance to the females behind them hoping they had not heard much of that as he purposely kept his voice low.
Accepting the responsibility of Ash and her loner lover as well as his own turmoils with which he was not having much progress in achieving himself.
Yet the woman was a good leader she just needed to not take on so much especially now with her own pups on the way.
With a soft heartened smile the males eyes melded back to their dull grey visage as he awaited whatever her answers would be but felt one more thing needed to be said to soothe the fires he may have potentially started within her.
"I could use you help as well, Angelica....she needs someone to talk to and with your authority she won't run...if you could when you get the chance"

Nikolaus Avena (Loner)

Niko shrugged as Miley commented about it being weird that they were standing in front of his parents’ house. She commented on the fact that they could not name the pups until they were born but hearing that Miley had names picked out for them made him nod. “We’ve got time,” he said watching as she went to sit on the curb. “Mmm I don’t know. Anything special you want to do?” Comet Comet
 
The thought of taking Bill crossed her mind as something to do, but she couldn't let him in on it. "I mean, I got nothing special planned either." She told him, taking a deep breath as another pain went through her stomach. "Might need some medicine though, I think I'm having pregnancy cramps." She looked down at her stomach as she said this before back up at him. "We did one thing, go see your parents house, what are other things that you would like to do before I leave?" She didn't like giving him a limited time, she wished it wasn't limited, and after dinner she would have to get Bill out of a house full of wolves. Especially with the new wolves around, it was going to be especially hard. She would have to do something to cause a distraction.. to get Gabriel and the wolves out of the house. A fight, a fight that consisted of whole pack. She got a idea, but she would feel bad over it. Telling Niko where Matthew's woman is, hoping he would try to get her back and start something with Gabriel and the others. Would it work though...? She went silent for a bit, a thought process running through her mind on how to get the alphas child out of the house.

Styx Kagore - Warrior - Winslow Pack
The male grunted in return to her, unbothered by the growing pile of dead warriors. It was the bodies of the Omega's that he was gentle with. They were smaller, bruised and beaten, and he cradled those close to his chest despite his own pains, laying them down softly. They didn't deserve the deaths they'd been dealt, they were by nature gentle and kind and calm, not fighters. They'd had no defence.

He grunted at the other wolf, "Don't be sorry for the warriors. I was the one who killed most of them when they tried to kill my pregnant Alpha, and then the Omegas. It's the Omegas I grieve for. They didn't deserve it." He muttered at her, the faint hint of anger in his tone. Not aimed at her, but at the warriors once again.

"Bella is our Alpha, Matthew is our Beta. From who I know to be safe here at the moment, we also have Michi, Artemis, and Amelia, the remaining Omegas. Amelia is our healer. I... I believe I am the only remaining warrior." He returned, "There's also pups but... The Omegas will be taking care of them for now." He hummed softly, tilting his head toward her.

Artemis Lunala - Omega - Winslow Pack
As Styx came in and told them that they could go and feed themselves and the pups, Artemis peered at Michi. She stood shakily, "We... We should go to the kitchens. He left the door open and... there's no food in here." Plus, she could smell blood, and she didn't want any of the pups near such a scene. The kitchen would be safe for now, and she assumed Styx wouldn't have allowed them out if it wasn't safe.

Astiel Stormchaser - Warrior - Haven Pack
Rumbling in pride as his mate settled happily into place, he kissed her gently on the head. He was glad she liked it. He knew that nesting was kinda an Omega tendency, but it was his odd habit when he got nervous. And really, no one except Eliza knew that he did it. Of course, their peace was disturbed when the door knocked, and a low noise of warning came from Astiel's throat before he realised the scent was of Azrael. Not a threat then.

Before he managed to get up and head for the door, Eliza beat him to it. So Astiel stayed back, watching warily, listening to the news. He frowned when he heard Ash was being punished, and assumed it was something to do with Amora. He didn't see the issue that Gabriel seemed to have with the loner. Clearly the Omega and Loner were happy together, and Amora hadn't harmed anyone. Surely the Alpha didn't blame Ash for her being around? Dread flooded him, wondering if Gabriel's method of punishment was as bad as he assumed.

Who was stupid enough to fall off a cliff? Coyote wondered, morbidly confused and flicked her ear when being offered a shower to which she gracefully accepted. “Thank you I appreciate the acceptance. However Brief it may be for the time being at least I guarantee from me at least you shalt not have any issuers with trust. My life is yours.” She bowed slightly and pulled her hair away from her neck exposing it. In her pack this was acceptance enough. But the major bite mark let at least her know and be reminded that she would have paid the price for her betrayal for her pack. They marked each member along the neck upon inniation so everyone had one. Any wolf that remained in the ranks for more than a year without the mark was killed. Coyote received her mark when she was six. Just after her first transformation. Her mother was the one to deal the ghastly blow to her neck her mother was alpha and before coyote was 16 she had betrayed the pack leaving Coyote to make the gruelling decision to outcast her. She was somewhere with a wonderful half bread child that she had made without the okay from her pack. Moving away from the negitive energy from Zephyr she slipped into the mud room and began to look around.

The showers were nice. A step down from the practical mansion she lived in before but everything had come at a price and if she was lucky she wouldn’t be tortured here. She slipped out of her velvet purple dress and into one of the showers turning the water as hot as it would go. Her skin burned red hot and made her wince but oh how she liked the hot water. She got to cleaning immediately and spent about twenty minutes doing so and another ten just standing in the hot water. It washed along all her scars and for a moment she felt safe. But reality aside she knew she wasn’t and stepped from the shower wrapping her too-long hair in a towel vigorously wringing out the water in it. Because of her wolf side her hair was long thick and immensely curly but the length and where weight of it left it wavy at best. It reached just past her butt touching the tops of her kneecaps when wet and midway down her thighs when not. Letting out a brief sigh she dressed and headed for the healer known as Suzu.

Her wounds were pretty extensive. A tear in her lip she knew would heal over bit would leave a small scar, a split along her ribs between the fifth and sixth one. Above her belly and barely touching her tattoo. A wonder if the ink would be pulled from it concerned her slightly. But not as much as the tear along her leg which she had noticed from when the wolf smashed her against the rocks. Before Zephyr and Gabriel had come to her aid. Her ankle was also torn to shreds amazed she could stand at all that wolf did a number upon it. She went walking now aimlessly since she had no idea where she was and wanted to catch her grounds.

There were wolves everywhere. She knew where they were and what gender they were from smell alone but it would take weeks for her nose to become acclimated to the scents of each and every one of them. Soon though she would be able to pinpoint them by smell and even by walk and breath patterns of she hung around long enough. Without the threat of her father she was safe to let her guard down a little bit she never once let her wars or tail out of sight. They flicked and twitched as she walked the only sound on her walking around being the tiny tinkling from her piercings in her large wolf ears.
Within enough time she managed upon the Japanese door and tapped on it lightly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Zephyr was glad to be rid of Coyote. She smelled of blood and grief. He could sense that though she was strong and willed that something about her past plagued her still. he shook the feeling off and turned to Gabriel. He didn’t want to seek out Suzu until after Coyote’s scent had long been removed from his nostrils. Everything floated up his instincts about this place. Perhaps he should cut his losses and return to being a loner. The grumble in his stomach and the strong desire already to not let down his new leader void him of any thoughts concerning that.

He wandered a bit avoiding Coyote at every turn. Eventually he found himself a room off the easy side facing a late section of forrestry. The windows were vast. He liked this room and the bed inside was perfect size for him. Queen and with four bedposts and a curtain to conceal him he would be happy. Eventually he would have to buy himself some blankets for when he tested the one on the bed at current there wasn’t any way he would get comfortable at night. No scent raged his nitrile from this room so it was unoccupied. A smile crept to his lips and then he went into the living room for a little more meet-greet from the others. He entered the space and felt almost instantly out of place. His blue jeans replaced with skinny black ones. His feet were shoed with a black and white pair of almost industrial looking converse and he wore a T-shirt also black of what appeared to be a black panther tearing into it. Wildcats this shirt said on the collar. He shrugged and put it on without much care and now stood wearing his ensemble in the living room not really sure what to do with his albino self.

{omg. Someone respond please!}
 
"She's pregnant?!" Tor snarled, baring her fangs out of habit. God, she had been in wolf form for too long. Her face was contorted with silent rage at the prospect of innocent pups killed, and even she wanted to tear them apart, and it wasn't even her battle. That was forbidden, taboo! Who would kill one who gave so much life? You were killing mothers, no, entire generations! Tor thought of this, and clenched her fists, her well manicured nails almost drawing blood. So much loss- only one warrior?

Tor offered him a smile, but maybe it was more of a grimace. Who could take out so many warriors? Her hair blew softly in the wind, the air brushing against her face like a gentle caress, a quiet reminder of something long ago.

"Well, you won't be alone anymore. I can't hunt, but trust me, I can fight. And I Will. Those bastards won't get away with this." Her voice had lowered an octave, seriousness drawing it down. She had never felt so sure of this in her life. Omega's, taking care of pups? Tor snorted at the thought. Not able to bury the dead, she picked a few flowers, dropping it on their bodies.

"Thank you for your sacrifice..." She said quietly. She wasn't sure if it was to the dead omegas, or the man beside her, or to the Alpha female protecting her cubs.
 
Gabriel Haven (Alpha Female-Haven)
Nodding as Tobias spoke of his hunt and the borders being secure, the woman nodded in relief, however when he spoke of handling it, continuing with he was handling things and would get her checked out when the woman was better. Gabriel sighed to herself but let the matter drop. “Very well Tobias. I will leave it to you to deal with, given she is your main responsibility.”

He spoke of the fact that soon she would not be able to do anything as her pregnancy progressed and spoke of the fact that others would be down for the count, the woman sighing as she knew Tobias was right, both about their numbers being low and with all the females but Suzu obviously being with child, making it risky for them to fulfill their ranks and duties, forcing everything on Tobias practically. Azrael coud only do so much being blind and Astiel...well the male didn’t seem to ha d it in him to do the hard things. “I feel Hannah was too lenient on them Tobias...honestly I am still surprised they survived leaderless like they did for a month after you and Hannah killed Azarias. They do not realize anything about the old laws or the threat that lurks within the dark.” She knew Tobias would understand the meaning behind the words she spoke, her own eyes briefly flashing aqua at her words. “If they think I have failed...their lives will be in more danger.”

Feeling Tobias remove his hand from her shoulder after he spoke of letting her know if she needed help and they were not Winslow and shouldn’t descend down that path, the alpha nodded. “Azrael refuses to take the position of beta. Perhaps I should offer the position to you,” she said, a mixture of teasing and seriousness in her tone. Informing her to release Ash the blond haired female sighed before rising and heading to the cellar door, pulling out a second key and unlocking it. Ignoring Ash for now, the woman walked back to Tobias, resuming her seat. “Someone needs to knock sense into Astiel. Perhaps the rank of warrior is not suited to him, given he seems to me like a pacifist.” The woman sighed and shook her head.

“Remind Ash if you could where her loyalty lies. As for my helping Angelica...I can try. I wasn’t expecting her to freak out.” The scent of a stranger reached the woman’s nose and she turned her head to see Zephyr there. “Tobias, this is Zephyr. Zephyr, this is Tobias, a warrior. Zephyr has been given the position of guard. There is also another member here that joined who is on probationary beta female status for a moon,” she explained. “That one should be with Suzu as she was injured. You probably wish to leave to tend to Angelica so go on.”


She then turned to Zephyr. “Zephyr, did you find a room alright?” VeiledPariah VeiledPariah CZDoubleU CZDoubleU
 
Styx Kagore - Warrior - Winslow Pack
Nodding his head, Styx didn't snarl back this time. He was just as angry that anyone would attack a pregnant wolf, let alone his Alpha. Pups, whether submissive or dominant, were innocent creatures, even more so when unborn. Whatever they believed Bella to have done, whatever made them think she needed to die.... Anyone with decency would have thought of the pups. But no, they'd just tried to kill her anyway.

He nodded his head again, glancing at her, "They won't get away with it." He agreed, "Because they're all dead. All of traitors are here, in the pile." He rumbled, gesturing to the pile of warriors beside that of the Omegas. He'd decided on two piles. After all, the Omegas didn't deserve to burn with their murderers. He didn't know who she was talking to, assumed she was talking to the Omegas, and bowed his head a little in agreement.

Astaroth 'Ash' Smallclaw - Omega - Haven Pack
Ash remained cowering in the corner when the cellar door opened, trembling. She wasn't sure if it was some sort of test, and she didn't dare ask. Instead, she stayed where she was. After all... Gabriel had wanted her in here and had wanted to speak to her. But... Gabriel had been the one to open the door. Slowly, her wolf form edged forward, wary that she may be walking into a punishment. She was quite clearly terrified of what was to come, and upset, shivering and shaking.

“I found one on the east side. It smelled unoccupied. I intend to take that as my quarters.” He announced taking into account just how many females there were and how odd it seemed that mostly all of them had been with pups. He didn’t like that smell at all but the place would need further inspection and as a guard he would be able to wander the parameters keeping himself away from the scents of the women who were carrying. As he looked around it begged the question who really had control over the pack. Not that he would question the leader or maybe he should given he had JUST joined.

It seemed like she was a leader of unruly teenagers. His worry would slate himself for slaughtering if he was not careful. His ear twitched when he heard the door open and they perked straight up upon seeing Ash enter the room. She was weary and afraid of..... something. He could smell some sense of betrayal or fear of being betrayed upon her fur thickly. He turned to Gabrial as if for confirmation that this was the case. Upon looking her way a certain different concern fluttered in his blood-coloured eyes. His eyes seemed to beg understanding now.
 
Nikolaus Avena (Loner)
Unaware of Miley’s thoughts or her true motives, however horrible she thought they were. “Well it’s too early for dinner and a movie. I suppose just spend time with you,” he said. Comet Comet

Gabriel Haven (Alpha Female-Haven)
“Your punishment will be left to Tobias,” spoke Gabriel to Ash, scenting the girl’s fear before she turned her head to Zephyr as he spoke of finding a room on the eastern side of the house. “Good. Your job starts tomorrow. For now eat and rest up,” she said. “You’ll train with Tobias, Mia, and Astiel.” CZDoubleU CZDoubleU WolfOfProphecys WolfOfProphecys
 
Zephyr nodded slowly in understanding of the repetition. “If you would excuse me alpha I must familiarise myself with the pack boundaries,” now he nodded half-bowed and exited the all to tense for him room. Heading for a more favourable outdoors-y location. Once outside he shoved his hands into his pockets and began to patrol the outer grounds. Happy.

The rain had started. It was pouring by the time he came outside. Taking his hair down he enjoyed the drumroll on his face neck and head. His shirt was soaked in a matter of minuets but by that time he was under the thick lush cover of trees lining the forest. He walked aimlessly for what felt like forever not really concerned with where he was going but keeping in with the scents and making sure he didn’t cross over the wrong territory. He patrolled learning the scents of the other males and females within the packs. Old scents covered by new ones played a picture in his mind like a very old show. As he wondered there were many places to climb, lay sunbathe, bath and when he came to the large lake he stared out into it with awe. It was beautiful at a resting state. The lights from around the lake inhabited by probably humans flickered off the never still black as midnight water.

Rain filled this lake and he sat down on a large patch of grass now.... beginning it tests and learning the scents and familiarising himself with all that was around him in preparation for his trainings tomorrow. He could be considered too prepared for any situation but he had to know more than the events and scents old or new played a big role in telling this packs..... darker history. His ears flicked and his tail twitched ready on case someone would assume him to be off guard.
