What would the pack do anything for? Amaris turned the question over and over in her mind. The one goal the pack had been working towards for as long as any of them could remember was the extinction of his line. But how could she tell him that? How could she tell him that the singular thing that would satisfy her pack was to see his lifeless body?<br/><br/>Amaris offered a weak smile to his mother before the woman disappeared back inside to make coffee. It was such a motherly thing to do. Hands shoved into the back pockets of her jeans as she stood by the truck and surveyed the house and the land. It was a beautiful place, one that would be a nice place to live. A slight shake of her head cleared the distracting thoughts before she crossed the yard to the steps. Before she sat down next to him, Amaris leaned down to kiss him, letting their lips linger together.<br/><br/>She pulled her phone from her pocket and held it towards him but didn’t let him take it yet. “You asked what the pack wants. There’s the small thing of just being left alone. Which all things considered, we..well, they.. are. But the one thing they really want is to end your family’s line. The<i>human</i>part of your line.” Amaris finally handed over her phone then stood up.<br/><br/>She intended to leave him to mull over what she said while she checked things out. Without another word, she stripped off her clothes, folded them neatly, and stacked them on the porch near Sofie. With a wink to Blake, she strode off into the trees. She wouldn’t change in front of him; it was too personal.<br/><br/>Nearly an hour had passed by the time she returned. Her skin was flushed and her eyes shone. Despite the danger they were in, running through the trees was invigorating. Still naked as a jay bird, she entered the house and flashed his mother a grin. “I’d love some coffee if you still have some.”<br/><br/>Her attention shifted to Blake. “I don’t know if you talked to Rex but they’re out there. Rox and Lium. And even Finn.  Some of the others too but they’re farther away. Probably waiting for orders.  You figure out what to do yet?”
