"Alright, those who have been assigned a task may proceed with what you have been assigned. And anyone else who hasn't been assigned can stay back so I can figure out what you will do," and she said that with a smile - though if one knew her well, they would know it to be a strained one, because tensions were high and she didn't like the events that had unfolded. And so she took a deep breath to compose herself before waiting for the crowd to disperse and see what was remaining of her pack. " I wish everyone a successful hunt and patrol - and I do hope you juveniles learn something with your lessons. If have good reports, I may let a group of juveniles under the supervision of an adult attempt a hunt for a deer - so those watching juveniles today, make sure to come to me and report how well they did because those who get high marks will get to go on this hunt. Consider it incentive to do good work today." She said with a teasing tone, her eyes lighting up with mischief and playfulness. She wanted the juveniles to work for something, after all they might thing their task boring - so they might try and get out of it, so she had to do something to liven it up.

"Kalevala, Willow, Fracture," the female called, this was the group she had chosen for patrol. And she was calling them over so as to be ready for the patrol. And while she waited for Malakai to respond, she looked to them saying - "We'll be patrolling the northern and eastern most part of our borders. Along with making sure there are no repercussions for mate's actions in taking out their leader - even though he had been a growing nuisance to us in the past couple weeks. I will catch up with you three, you can head towards the borders - I shan't be long, dismissed." She said politely and cordially to her pack members.

The older female was still curled up in her den when sounds of discord rang in her ears. And she slowly raised her head to acknowledge it, but then again - she really couldn't be bothered by the drama at the moment. And she curled up even more to block out the sounds and noise. She was sort of chilly, even all curled up in her den and this was annoying. She'd have to ask someone to get her some warmer animal furs for her little 'nest'. And she perked her ears at the thought - and so she made her way out of her den. Slowly, but surely - and she shook off the dirt from her pelt and licked and picked any burs and undesirable things that clung to her fur. And she gave a soft hum as she noted that the pack had seemed to be gathering for the normal meetings but their was an underlying tension. She'd ask about it later, but she was currently on a mission - and she looked around and that's when she found him : her son . And she picked up her pace a bit to trot over to her son - the scent of peaches and salt tickling her nose as she approached the golden hued male.

"Good Morning, Jarek," she greeted, " I hope you and Willow are doing well." She said with sincerity, she thinks that the two would make a handsome pair, but Willow was doing her son wrong and she didn't appreciate that - hopefully, the two would work it out. "My dear boy, would you be a dear and get your mother some newer and warm furs to line her den with?" She said with a slight pout, " I don't like being chilled in my own den, especially when I have nice and soft pelts to sleep on." And she said that with an annoyed huff.

Jarek | Male | Pack Member | M: Teresa, Skylark, Mikhail

He lashed his tail listening to the patrols could be sent out. He knew had apprentices, but forgot which one. He caugh Willow taking a sneak of look at him. Jarek pinned his ears on the back of his head in guilt, but anger. He then perked his ears to sound of his mother and looked at her. He looked at her taking in the time when things weren't rough as pup. He took a deep breath taking her relaxing scent for him to calm his temper down.

He barked," Mother, let's just say I am at my wits with Willow. I may have snapper at her for all of her sudden affection." He lashed his tail listening to his mother's question for his service. He realized he need his service for the apprentices. He barked loudly, "Mikhail and Skylark gather of here and we will be getting go here in a second." He looked down at his mother but not to far juts a little. He didn't even realize he was larger than his mother. He barked, "Of course I will. I am with the juveniles today for patrolling. We will find some pelts or anything on the way back.." He nuzzled his mother's cheek and he added, "If you'd like I can maybe bring some flowers of lavender to add into your bedding to keep you relaxed and better sleep.."

He waited for his apprentices patiently enjoying his time with his dear mother.
