Sarah's eyes widened as Jacen fully bowed to her mother, before he seemed to babble, completely forgetting about the times that she had spoken to him about other members of their pack that had been taken in and bore similar shame marks, outcasts of other packs. She glanced at her mother to see surprise and amusement, which caused her to close her eyes and hang her head as she pinched the bridge of her nose. She shook her head, chasting herself for starting to fall for this wolf. She barely knew him, but she already felt a connections.<br/><br/>Dianna slowly rose to her feet and leaned forwards to gently press her fingers onto her desk "Look at me." she commanded in a slow and steady voice, waiting for him to glance at her before she said it again in a firmer voice. "Look at me!" she waited for him to finally look up before motioning to the chair across from the desk. "Sit, and you will remain eye contact while I'm talking to you." she told him, waiting for him to sit before she sat back down. She leaned forwards slowly, resting her arms on her desk as she looked at him "Did my daughter Sarah not tell you about this pack? She's been caring for you the entire time you were healing, she defended you and brought you back here for a reason. My sons still have much to learn, but she understands. We do not kill each other, we do not kill shifters of any kind, shape or breed. This is my pack, and this is our territory. You are safe here. Amongst the other packs, you would be dead, but here you have a chance at a new life. Accept, you make walk around here free and in one month, should you stay and do your part, I have something for you that will identify you as one of our pack and you will be free to roam outside of our little hamlet of a village alone." she told him, watching him carefully as he sat there before her.<br/><br/>Dianna's attention shifted past him for a moment and she motioned for Lucas to move away from the door and come forwards. He took slow steady steps over stand by the chair, waiting for another command. Her attention then went back to the young wolf in front of her "What is your name?" she asked, waiting for him to tell her before she nodded and slowly stood up. "My son Lucas will take you to your current accommodations. Tomorrow morning, one of my sons will be there to take you to where you will be needed that day, as will it be for a week and then you will be expected to find your own work day by day. It goes that way for all here. Enjoy your evening and get settled in, the basics will be provided for you, if there is anything you wish to have, make a list and the next time the scouts go out, you will be given a chance to give them your list. Not everyone gets something." she said, before giving them both a dismissive wave.<br/><br/>Sarah moved to be by Jacen's side, but her mothers voice stopped her "A word, Sarah. You can check in on him later. Your father and I would like a word." With a heavy sigh, she nodded as she watched her brother leave with her wolf.<span style="font-style: italic">Wait, what? Her wolf?</span>She shook her head and walked towards her mothers desk to sit in one of the chairs and turned her eyes up to her brother. "Maxwell, go fetch something to make for dinner." her mother added, not looking at her youngest son as he looked annoyed with the task, but hurried to do as asked.
