I stood there drowsy and confused, it took a minute to process. Courting was the process of trying to woo the intended partner, and my father gave Sawa permission. It finally hit me, Sawa wants me to be his mate. I stood there slowly processing it, a blue blush started creeping up on my face slowly the more I processed it.

I had a green blush on my face as I waited for her to process it"I understand if you don't wish to"

I nodded and layed down not knowing where I can sleep

"Oh right, you don't have a clan cave to sleep in..." I said thinking, "I will have to talk to my father about that, he will probably put you in the bachelor guards section for now..." I said assuming what he would say "If you wanted different you would have to request."

I came walking toward the cave and saw Frosty and Sawa standing together, she was clearly flustered. Her face was a deep shade of blue, and Sawa's face was tinted green. He must have said something and I immediately facepalmed, not the smartest move as far as courting goes. Of course, I expect he hasn't had anyone to give him advice on how to court either so he is just improvising the whole thing. "Hello, I greeted,"

"Hello father," Frosty said turning to me a bit startled but she looked like she needed to say something

"Since Sawa isn't in a clan he doesn't have anywhere to sleep, It is also up to you on deciding that." I realized I didn't assign him a place after all the events of today

"Hmm," I thought and decided to take a risk "I will leave it up to him, he can sleep amongst us as Royals since he will be getting a position right below yours, so almost an understudy. Or he can sleep in the guard's quarters, which isn't very friendly and he is still kind of recovering from the fight." I said turning to him as well as Frosty.

I stood up and looked shocked"wait are you being serious? I can sleep among you royals?"I looked very happy

I was so happy I could hardly hold back my happiness but I did my best to as I followed them to the royals cave

When we go to the cave I walked past all 15 brothers, my claws hitting the floor and making a clicking sound. I started settling in at my spot near the stronger warrior brothers, that I got along with. All of them stared at Sawa as he stood in the doorway overlooking everyone. I guess it can be overwhelming to look at all my brothers together, but none of them should be a threat other than the few surrounding me. These are the brothers that treated me like an equal, and looked up to me when they were little. These were the ones that saw me as more of a mother than their sister. I taught them most of their flame training and long-distance shots, while my father taught them the claw-to-claw technic.

If Sawa comes over here I would be curious to see their reaction, but also worried.

I looked over her brothers which was alot in my eyes, but I walked over to Frosty and layed down near her but keeping a good discent between us so if one of the brothers wanted to keep us separate they could
