"Of course, of course," said Lime and gave a smile. "For we owe you gratitude for considering us future packmates, my lady." Future slaughter-house inmates too! What better place to stage her headquarters for the beginning of a revolution than in the midst of a princess's little kingdom? She might have clucked with satisfaction at her sudden streak of good luck; maybe the boy wasn't a total loss to bring along and suffer for so long. "Let us be on our way then, if it pleases you. The sooner we can rest the better, begging your pardon." The sooner we get a meal the better too.
Domovoi being Domovoi, of course he got stuck on minor details. Such as the alphas' names for instance. Twist? Wazaam? Twist sounded like what they did to poor prey bodies after killing them. Wazaam sounded like some strange onomatopoeia for the thump, the crash, the happenstance of blood nearby . . . He shuddered but nonetheless stood up, ready to go.

Alone. That was how his life was lived currently. He and Twist were on the outs, after he had found his daughter being harmed by her command. He had been unable to forgive her for the time being, and had taken to sleeping across from her within the den.
He had abandoned feelings for her right now, at least until he was strong enough to be able to do something about what had happened.
He didnt mind his alone status much, being that he felt that eyes werent always on him as much this way. He still ran the pack, and in Twists absence and depression, he had taken over command for the time being.
No one woulda thought the bright orange male could be a leader, but he could be and was right now.
He padded through the forest, his eyes concealing the fact that he was hurting. He looked strong, and thats the only look that he cared to show.
Weakness was not an option.
He lowered his nose to the earth, sniffing along the dirt and grass to see if he could maybe find anything to snack on.
Of course, the snow was covering the grass a bit, making it hard to smell anything or track at all.
He sneezed from the cold, and gave a snort.
How he hated snow.

Delusion eyed the Lynx for a few moments as she eagerly hurried her along, her gaze roving to the male who so willingly rose to leave at the Lynx's command, though sh'd thought for a moment she'd seen him shudder. Must have been her minds playing tricks on her the teen thought. "Yes fine" She relented a moment later "Mustn't waste time hmm?" she continued before turning about neatly and leading the unlikely pair back the way she'd came, mentally calculating that the game trail she'd been following earlier would be the quickest way back to the pack lands.

As one the pair followed at Delusion's heels, Lime of course in front, Domovoi trailing behind with a tail that drooped and traced a trail in the ground as they walked. With it, the omega hoped to create a path he could follow out - just in case things didn't go well with the alpha. But then, he thought, if things didn't go well with the alpha, wouldn't they be killed? Or worse, eaten alive? What did royalty do to punish the meek anyway? Domo gulped as various macabre methods of torturing him flew through his mind like a whirlwhind. He hoped that their conversation with Delusion already placed them one paw into the pack.
Lime, meanwhile, padded with confidence in her steps, tufted ears erect, eyes alert, nose open. Now she was walking into wolf territory . . . She had to be extremely cautious from here on out, for one misstep might bring about her end. After a time, she spotted a bright splash of orange amidst the whites and dull browns - and this figure rode with strong pawsteps and a determined face. Lime leaned towards the princess and asked, "Is that one of them?"

Delusion glanced behind once in a while to make sure Servant was still following them, the Lynx - Lemon lime she reminded herself, obviously she was going to have to actually remember the cat's name since she insisted on sticking around - didn't seem to have that concern, clearly she was used to the wolf always following meekly behind her. It was in the middle of these thoughts that Lime spoke and Delu whipped her head around to look - thank the moon - that cat hadn't spotted a spy or anything no it was one of the Alpha's. A common wolf...but one that had agreed o shelter her royal family and though he surely knew that Delu and her family outranked him (they were royalty after all) Delu was willing - for appearances sake - to play along. Besides he sorta liked him, he wasn't quite so heathenish as some of the other commoners.
"Yes it is' She told the Lynx before picking up her pace and calling out to the orange wolf "Hello!"

He did not see the Paranoia/Bipolar family as royals..In fact he saw them as a bit odd, even if he liked Para for the most part. They each had their own issues; though he was quick not to judge, being the issues his own family had designed.
He realized his life was not how he would have hoped it would be..In fact it was becoming incredibly hard not to leave the lands and restart life.
He knew his children could hold down the fort, and Shezaam would likely be the one he would choose to succeed he and Twist.
Though.. He was unsure if he would be bringing Twist with him if he did decide to leave.
His ear perked, and he offered a smile to the teens as they approached.
Instantly he knew the purple females heritage, and gave a nod to her.
"Delusion, and.. Well im not sure who you are."
He chuckled, looking at the male.

Oh gods! Oh gods. He was big. He was old. He looked strong. And . . . and he was smiling! Was it a good smile? Domovoi couldn't see anything sinister about it, but past experiences with Lemon Lime had taught him not to accept anything at face value anymore. And then he chuckled aack! Was that good or not?! Domo was stuck in a whirl of uncertainty, looking at the ground with his tail tucked and his ears bent and his head lowered, trying his best to look as submissive as possible.
Lemon Lime growled a sigh and stepped forth, knowing that as usual she would have to take the initiative. "I am Lemon Lime, sir," the lynx introduced herself with a bow, "a humble lynx looking for a home for me and my adopted son. I have offered him up as a servant for your princess here and would gladly extend that same deal to you." Were they related? They certainly didn't look alike though . . . Perhaps it reeked of past scandals then? The cat's eyes gleamed at the thought of gossip. Well, for an apparent b*****d daughter, she was defintiely treated well. Perhaps these wolves were too soft . . .

Delu arched an eyebrow at Lemon Limes words. Offer the same deal to him? Never! Servant was hers! Thankfully the purple female had more sense then to blurt that out to the Alpha, he certainly wouldn't appreciate it and well she had to keep up appearances now didn't she. Delu put a pleading look on her face and wagged her tail at the Alpha skipping forward to greet him affectionately in a manner that was probably more suited to a pup then a teen - but Delu didn't care, and it wasn't all for show - she really did like him.He had been kind enough to offer her family a sanctuary after all.
"Please Sir, I like Servant and wish to bring him home to mother an the others" She didn't much care about the Cat and so left her out of the occasion - until she recalled that Lemon Lime was the only one who knew the secret phrase. "And the cat too" She finally added though her tone wasn't nearly as hopeful on the addition.

The big male thought about it, and looked at the lynx, though through narrowed eyes. He did not like the cats as a general rule.. It had been a lynx that had harmed Tempeste.
Though the other that was wanting to join seemed so..skittish that maybe he needed the lynx Lemon Lime to be happy.
He couldnt break up families.. He wasnt that type of wolf. He gave a little nod, and looked at Dellusion with a little smile.
"Only you would bring a lynx and her adopted wolf home to us. Go ahead. They are free to walk on the lands."
He responded, though he'd be keeping a firm eye on the feline.

They were . . . free? Free to walk the lands? His heart rate hastened with excitement; so their good luck had prevailed after all! And he was such a good boy to keep looking like a servant should so Lime wouldn't have to give him glares and call him stupid and useless and a baby - and now both the princess and the king liked them! Domovoi's elation was scrawled all over his expressive face, tail twitching into a quick wag before becoming still once more. Couldn't overdue it! "Thank you, thank you, thank you, sir," he said to the alpha's feet with sincerity. "We won't let you down, sir."
"Of course we won't," Lime commented with a slight roll of her eyes, feeling Wazaam's and Delusion's collective gazes. Hmm . . . Did she detect the scent of a lynx among them? Interesting . . . Another detail added to her scheme. "Now, may we be led to our den to sleep? We have walked a terrible distance to reach here and we grow tired."

Delusion found herself overjoyed as Wazzam approved Servant and the Cat - well she was overjoyed about the wolf anyways, she could have left the cat but if it was both or none then Delu was willing to deal. She was sure that in time she would be able to shift the wolfs loyalty but that would take time and until then well - she supposed having the cat around wouldn't be that bad. She as just a stupid cat after all - how much trouble could she cause?
"I'll take them to the dens" Delu offered when she realized the lynx had asked a question she would take them to a den close to her own - so she could keep an eye on her weapon."Thank you Wazzam' She told the Alpha sincerely before trotting off down the trail. "This way" She told them - quite sure they would follow.
