If any attempt was made by Pertinex to woo the young female, most of it flew right over her naive head. In her mind, males were still the ones who persecuted her, or liked her only long enough to...nevermind that.
Still, there was something reassuring in his tone; it wasn't the flattery, for she had heard that too many times before, but he WAS a packmate, if not an altogether familiar one...and Masuaki's reassurance rang in her mind. Despite this, the young female rises, inching back toward the den, and is soon swallowed by the growing shadows thrown upon the packed earth of the playground by the rise just upon the den. The deep mahogany eyes, though, still seem to catch the fading light and glow as they sweep across the elder male's form.
"Yes." Her reply, at last, is soft, carried more upon the wind between them than by the strength of her own voice. "It is beautiful...sunsets are already beautiful here." Almost immediately she averts her eyes, half-settling into a sort of crouched position a foot or so in front of the mouth of the den. Dare she tell him where the pack is? "The pack is hunting," she says after a moment, "Why are you not with them?"
