Cortinarri

She knew it was a desperately bold move; but the urge to dominant and rule was deep seeded in her mind. She had been dethrowned too many times to count, and the desire to be alpha took over her. She longed to see Manov more than anything, but he had vanished, along with Ghost and the others. Nightcrawler had left to another pack, and the pups were no where to be seen. Even Pheral hadn't been around lately; though Cortinarri was glad of this.

Standing up as regally as could be done with a crippled hind leg, Cortinarri howled out loud and defiantly. She was claiming the role of alpha! And if Ghost heard this, Cortinarri would cover her actions up with a sly, white lie. She knew that Ghost was stronger, and Cortinarri couldn't risk a fight against her. Not only that, but her love for Manov meant that she wouldn't fight against anyone whom he cared about.
