Her wolf was on edge already, which left her in a precarious mood, so to some extent she agreed with his sentiments. "The scents of blood and hormones can do a great many things to many wolves," she began as she breathed in deep, her lashes lowering slightly as that same breath eased out, "some of us deal with it better than others... beasts or no." She shrugged even as she flashed him a delightfully wolfish smile. Somewhere inside the clear difference between Colby's feelings on the matter and her own amused her and she couldn't seem to help but tease him just a little. <br/><br/>Though even with her teasing Sienna had to resist the urge to reach out and touch the male as a form of reassurance. Stifling the urge to do what was natural to her of course only added to her own tension but her time in the city had rubbed off on her a little. Sometimes it was hard to remember that the things that had been common in her household were not so common to others, even in the same pack. Part of their family had been in the pack for generations but the other part held roots in the Aztecs and somehow the blood still held true, even when those packs were no more. <br/><br/>"Alex?" Sienna's brow arched at the thought of anyone being so unsure of Alex, but that was because she knew him. Knew him almost as well as her own brothers. "Alex is a good man. A good wolf. Perhaps a little young," as if she were so much older, "but he is Stephen's son in all the ways that matter." It was hard to explain, because while she felt Alex had taken his rightful place, no one could expect for everyone else to automatically assume the same. He would no doubt have to prove his mettle to some and part of her was ready to anticipate the worst. Then again, wasn't she always?<br/><br/>"Oh, I'd say you've got little to worry about there, cowboy!" She affected a bit of a drawl and reached out to give his shoulder a light push. "Alex will protect the pack but if you keep your, uh, cattle in line you'll be fine." Of that she could be sure. Or at least she thought so anyway. Colby's former status would not matter to Alex so long as he didn't make a nuisance of himself and that was precisely why Sienna had taken it upon herself to keep an eye out. She had been the one to draw him to the pack after all. Why shouldn't she take some of the responsibility of both ensuring that her pack, her family, was safe and of doing her best to give Colby the chance to be a part of something larger than himself, or even just his immediate family? Though, as much as she tried to draw him out there were steps the rancher needed to take himself. Perhaps this change in leadership was a good opportunity then? <br/><br/>Sienna glanced around quickly to note that most of the others had moved off to where Alex had reappeared and sighed softly. Stepping forward now she gave Colby a nudge with her hip indicating he should come along if he was of a mind to. "Besides pretty boy," she tilted her head and gave the impression of sizing him up, though by now the gesture should have been familiar enough for him to know she was teasing, "you should know by now that you'd have to deal with me first and I can tell you for certain that I am not the ceremonial sort..."</span>
