Eivind hadn't expected Blue to be awake, much less been listening in on the conversation. What Sieger had to say hadn't exactly been pleasant, and Eivind was a little miffed about it himself. He looked to Blue, where he was sitting on the edge of the bed with the blanket wrapped around his shoulders. This really was the last fucking thing they needed right now, but Blue wasn't screaming at him again.<br/><br/>“Yes, he was mad. Mostly about Alden. And yes, Sieger has been the alpha of our pack for many years now.” Right after Eivind's father. Blue's last question was a little harder to answer, but it was a direct question, and what good would it do for him to lie?<br/><br/>“He was, but not everyone is in agreement with him,” Eivind answered. He would have liked to tell Blue more to put him at ease, but any claims of protection and he'd start in with his questions all over again. He thought he'd made himself clear enough through his actions that he wasn't going to let anyone take and hurt Blue, not even the pack alpha. Blue might not have been a wolf like them, but Eivind was, and he imagined his instincts ran the same way that Sieger's did in regards to Synnove. He would fight, if it came down to it. Maybe Sieger knew that, maybe he thought that Eivind would back down since he had in other scenarios.<br/><br/>“Sieger doesn't like anyone at first.” He shrugged again, like the alpha's opinion of Blue wouldn't matter.<br/><br/>“You should go back to sleep. Or at the very least lay back down,” Eivind suggested, heading into the bathroom to clean up. He used the dirty towels to sop up the water that was left all over the floor, and then threw them into a dirty clothes hamper. The shower curtain would have to be replaced, when he got around to it, but they could make due for the time being. His sensitive ears picked up on footsteps on his porch again, and Eivind made a noise of annoyance as he started to head back towards the stairs. This time, instead of someone barging in, there was an actual knock. It wasn't that people in the pack were not courteous to one another. They were just extremely tight knit and certain boundaries didn't exist; simple things such as knocking, and locking the door.<br/><br/>“What?” Eivind grumbled, opening the door to see Synnove. She had a basket in hand, and Eivind moved aside to let her in.<br/><br/>“Sieger told me the gist of his conversation with you,” she informed. “I thought it was about time I stop by and get to know him better myself before making any sort of decision. How's he doing?”<br/><br/>“Well enough, considering,” Eivind told her, leaving out that he'd actually fucked pretty good, even for himself.<br/><br/>Synnove ignored him, realizing she was going to get no answers from Eivind, and went upstairs once more. At Eivind's bedroom door, she knocked again until Blue acknowledged her. Unlike Sieger, the injuries she'd sustained were more minimal. Nothing that warranted any stitching, though her brother had fussed over her regardless. Just a few puncture wounds, but her mate made sure she didn't suffer anything serious, and she did the same for him in that regard, though Lofgren's intent had been on the other alpha male.<br/><br/>“I brought you some things you might need and some things that you probably don't.” Synnove smiled as she came over to the bed, setting the basket down. Inside had simple necessities such as a toothbrush and deodorant; little things that might make Blue feel human again. She also added snacks and sweets, both because Blue needed the calories and also because he probably needed a little comfort as well. Beneath all that was some clothing she'd found that she thought might actually fit him. She doubted that Eivind was perceptive enough to take care of all his needs, and his comforts as well. It was a surprise to see the young man clean, and tucked away into Eivind's bed. Maybe he was more capable than she gave him credit for, but she still had her doubts.<br/><br/>“How are you feeling? Any better? Alaric said that your wound looked improved from when we first found you,” she commented in her smooth, feminine voice before taking a seat down on the bed. “I hope that Eivind is treating you okay.” She knew the werewolf was difficult, and she'd never known him to be particularly warm to any of the.. partners he'd entertained, if they could even be called that.
