Skye nodded smugly. "That's what I thought."

Arie rolled her eyes.
Skye smiled.

Arie ran her hand down Darling's back.
Skye watched, not saying a word.
group
Darling slowly swung her head into Arie's lap. There, Arie played with the little hair that remained on Darling's head.
Skye watched carefully, saying something else to the dog in that same language.
group
Darling slowly licked Arie's skirt. Arie looked at Skye.
"What are you saying??"
"Telling your friend not to hurt me." he said, "She'll listen to me over you…"
group
Arie rolled her eyes.
"She wouldn't have anyway."
"And also not to chase me." he said. "Heck i could ask her to attack you.."
group
Arie glared at Skye.
"You think I don't have measures in place to prevent that?"
"Nothing beats an Alpha's command." said Skye smugly. "Nothing."
group
Arie smirked.
"You ain't the only being who got an amulet tied to them."
"Maybe." said Skye, "But still."
group
Arie rolled her eyes.
"Now, imagine that I had taken her soul and put it into said amulet, and to deny me is literal death."
Skye nodded smugly, "right….. so she's a slave and not a pet?"
group
"Yes and no." Arie stroked Darling again.
Skye sighed. "If she has no free will than shes a slave."
group
"No, she has free will. She could choose to not do what I ask."
"But then you'd kill her…" he said. "That's not free will."
group
Arie rolled her eyes.
"Is she dead yet? She's just like any other pet; she listens when she wants to."
Skye growled, but said nothing more.
group
"I'm not a total monster." Arie meant her words; even she still had a shred of her past humanity left.
"Yeah right." said Skye, totally not believing her.
group
Arie didn't respond. She wasn't, right? Sometimes even she had a hard time believing that.
Skye watched her, saying nothing.
group
Arie looked up.
"I never did get your name, wolf."
"Skye Wolfheart…" he said.`
group
Arie nodded, staying silent.
