From surprise to annoyance to realization. The she-wolf merely watched the transition in emotions as if he were an opened book. Arms folded at her chest, she made it a point not to interfere the processing and whatever sentiment may come along with it.Ā
Once upon a time she mightāve condemned Achim for theĀ āwrongdoingsā of his old man, but itād been over a decade, and neither he or she were who theyād been. The wrath from then was given a placeā laid dormant for when necessity demanded it to be unchained and unleashed. However much he may remember, the Mallow before him now had grown quiet, became grounded; although still wrought by tragedy, more so perhaps.Ā
Thereās a phantom of a smile upon deep ruby besmeared lips, a glint within ambers.Ā āI live here,ā she explained rather curtly, not seeing reason or finding the energy to circle around the truth, even if it was hardly everything.Ā āCome, lets go inside. Thereās plenty of left-over food and, correct me if Iām wrong, you look like youāve been living on whatever scraps you could find.ā With a single gesture she beckoned him to follow her in.
...This already feels off. This whole interaction, her reactions, the way the young wolf was trying to find a way around looking directly in her eyes. Was he supposed to look at her mouth?! No, she has a scar there, donāt be rude. Umm maybe like look at the ground? No, no, no, thatāll make him seem like a wimp. Somewhere midway then? SHIT, hell no, thereās boobs happening there and thereās no way in HECK heāll-...
But then her voice interrupts his trainwreck of thought with a remark so simple Achim cannot help but loudly express his bafflement. ā...You LIVE here?! You mean youāre... like... part of the pack now?!ā thought the tone of his voice is incredulous, he follows the she wolf closely by almost by habit, like a well conditionally trained dog. Mustāve been the promise of food that subconsciously got to his brain though. And the subtle smell of leftovers that immediately filled his nostrils.
āH-HEY! For your information i actually just had a full burger menu like an hour ago. Which i bought myself, with my own money...!ā the sneer was thick in his voice as he proudly announced his accomplishment for the day. But of course, a cheeseburger and fries could barely satisfy a wolfās hunger, as could be seen from the way the young wolf was trying to hide his watering mouth.
ā....I could use a snack tho...āĀ
