The alpha brute strode along the terra, his paws dancing against the earth. It was such a great feeling to be out along the path again; the confinement of the dens was heavy hearted and unpleasant for a formerly free-lance brute such as himself. Right now, he really wanted some time to put together the pieces of what had happened to him this past stretch of time. He had managed to pull his life back together and establish an entire pack in the short span of time he had been searching for Ardemu. Not only that, but his son's whereabouts had been delivered straight to his doorstep. Now, they just needed to figure out exactly what the plan would be. Once Koli and Apollo returned from their expedition, they could see exactly where they stood with allies. While securing the territory was a priority, they also needed to eliminate the threat altogether.
Zethrox glanced backward briefly to reassure himself that Krever was still following him. The last thing he needed was to chase the omega down; as much as he wanted this arrangement to work out, he doubted they would ever break through to the chocolate femme. It'll take time. Everything heals with time, even the loss of a dear friend, he thought, the image of Rixes filling his mind. It had been years, yet he still saw her face everytime he thought of her as clearly as it had been yesterday.
It was only a few moments longer until the brute reached the steamy waters of Enackir Hot Springs. The warm vapors whafted around his tired body, and he emitted a slight sigh of satisfaction. However, he was careful to check the ground. With his muzzle lowered, he inhaled deeply, snuffling around the earth in search of any unfamiliar scents or old scent markers. To his satisfaction, there were none that were of immediate concern. The scent of the unfamiliar brute with the mechanical leg from the dens littered the ground, but Zeth was fairly certain he had either moved along or planned to shortly.
Seating himself comfortably, the alpha waited for his omega to arrive. Perhaps they could talk some things out, perhaps not. Either way, he was obligated to make her stay in his territory as pleasant as possible. Even if she would completely destroy her chances of happiness, she would never be able to say that Zethrox did not try.
