Silva couldn't help but shiver as the tall not-quite-wolf talked to them of old ways and trials and such. But he seemed to have an air about him, one that almost required respect even if he did creep her out a little at the same time. Her eye's widened a little when he revealed the knife he had been hiding, but the fact that he showed it and wasn't using it meant they were probably safe.<br/><br/>She couldn't really stop herself from looking to her left as they went through the house and passed the room where two other wolves were busy mating. They were definitely two of the scents she had been following, the scents filling her nose along with the unmistakeable scents of male and female arousal. It caused a little stir between her own legs as well, and she was glad to be passed it as they followed the tall man.<br/><br/>She shivered again as he sized her up in what would be their room, or at least their waiting room, that she wasn't sure yet. But the way he looked at her, when their gazes met she held hers for a moment and then cast her eyes downward submissively. She had never been one to challenge a pack Elder's authority or stature, and she sure wasn't going to start now. But she did manage to speak up softly, still casting her gaze downwards, "We never got your name, sir. Would you share it with us?" Then she listened to the rest of his words attentively, even though not a lot of it really made sense to her, which she didn't dare admit to his face.<br/><br/>When they were alone for a moment, Silva turned to Claire. "What was all that stuff he was talking about? I know what I am, I am a wolf. We are meant to live in the wilds and be free, not worry about 'ancient ways' and 'plights to nature', whatever that is supposed to mean."<br/><br/>After a moment she inspected the drawers, from the way everyone was looking at her, she was starting to wonder if even the other wolves thought she was wearing too little. But then again, given what the tall Elder said about a 'very different approach' regarding their trial to join his pack... she turned to Claire again, "Should I put something else on, or do you think that the Elder meant that the Alpha was going to come in and... help himself to us?" she swallowed nervously.
