Chapter Seven

The cub’s appearance was only slightly shocking this time. He’d been coming closer to her when Keane wasn’t around or was sleeping. They would be getting to the Silva Clan tonight. They’d stopped in the middle of the wilderness to take a break from traveling and to eat.

Keane had gone off stating he would be back soon. She figured he needed to let his cat out to run. She understood that, but her wolf could deal with being cooped up. Survival had dictated she learn that. However, if the opportunity arose, she wouldn’t turn it down.

She sat on a stump, whittling on a piece of wood.

“What are you doing?”

Tora lifted her gaze briefly to him then back to the work in her hand. “Making a gift for my Alpha.”

He sat across from her. His leg had healed and he didn’t have much of any lingering limp or soreness, according to him.

“What is it?”

“I’m making a mobile. This is one of the items that will hang.”

“For a baby?”

“Yes. My Alpha’s are expecting.”

“Does Keane have children?”

“Not that I’m aware of.” She held his gaze this time. He wore an old ball cap and his black hair stuck out from under it in all directions. “Why?”

“I asked him if I was going to live with him and I don’t think he wants me to.”

“I cannot speak to that, but I think it is going to depend on what his Alpha thinks will be the best for you.” She leaned forward and handed over the wood and the knife. Nahuel took them without question and tentatively put blade to wood. “He will always be there for you, even if you can’t stay with him.”

“Can I stay with you?”

“I don’t live there.”

His expression pinched. “I thought he said you were mates.”

“I live with my Pack and he’s with his Clan.” Her gut clenched at the thought of being away from him.

Can you hear me leopard?

Of course I can, canine. I’ve waited for you to accept this bond between us so we can speak this way. Do you need me?

There was a loaded question. Your cub should live with you.

I know. I agree, I will talk to my Alpha about it.

“I watched you earlier when you killed those hyenas. And before when you came for us, you don’t fear anything. Can you teach me?”

“I am sure there are betters to teach you to battle. I know nothing of that for jaguars.”

“I don’t care what it is, I want to be fearless. I don’t want to be taken advantage of again because I can’t...can’t protect my family.”

He heaved a sob and jerked. Tora watched the back leg of the wolf she’d been carving fly off. Nahuel’s eyes grew wide.

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.” His entire body trembled but he didn’t run away.

She didn’t make a move to take it back from him. “You know what’s great about carving wood?” Tora posed her question in a neutral tone and waited for him to shake his head. “If
