"Alpha, if I may?"
"Yes pup."
"I was terrible, I did anything and my parents allowed it. Once I was removed and staying with Tasmina, I learned that I was a brat. My actions now have consequences and I think before I say or do anything. I AM pack now."
ANOTHER snippet
A car pulled up, it was Cyprian. He was here for the keys. "Please come in. Sage is waiting, follow me.
"This place looks like a dump. WHy do you want to fix it?" Cyprian asked.
"Cyprian! You keep your mouth shut." Sage yelled.
Dalara put a hand on his arm, Sage?" she asked. He nodded knowing he had done something wrong.
"Cyprian that is not polite. You do not come into my home and tell me it is a dump. You need to apologize to Sage and me. You embarassed him by your behavior and made him feel sorry for me. You are old enough to know better." She explained in the tone her grandma used to correct her, her teacher tone.
"I'm...I'm sorry ma'am. I was rude. Please, it is not Sage's fault." He looked over to hisalpha, "Sage sir, I ...am sorry I was... disrespectful to your friend." Cyprian tried to state eliquently.
"Now next time think before you open that mouth of yours. Take the keys and get to Sage's. You are to be in bed or working on your homework when he gets home. Go. Now." He left without a word.
"Shit, how'd you do that? He listens to no one. I haven't ever heard him apologize before." Sage asked shock as hell.
"My grandma told me, 'It is the tone you use sweetie. It is not volume it is all in the tone.'." I guess I have a lot to teach you about kids." Dalara explained.
