Sierra squirmed under the scrutiny of the woman before her. Mothers all had that bearing about them when their children were in question. And the slight look that she was 'under dressed' made the invitation even worse.
Sierra was torn. Torn between escaping quickly from the glittering horde of the rich elite and seeing what lay inside the grand house before her. She'd never been inside something so lush with riches. And Jaxen's mother was right, proper heat, a real sink to wash in, and some time to decide where to go was really the right thing to do.
Sierra nodded her acceptance. She truly needed to buy another pair of colored contacts, her golden eyes made her already quiet nature look even worse - submissive. And submissive among wolves was not a good thing. And here these glittering wolves with all their fancy clothes, high end cars were far worse than any wolf Sierra had ever met.
With that in mind Sierra found the courage to follow behind the mother son pair, "Thank you for the invitation, I can hardly refuse."
She could but she wouldn't. Real cooked food and warmth were far greater temptation than seeing inside the glamour of the rich and famous.
But Sierra wasn't sure this was as good of an idea as she'd thought moments before when Jaxen's mother leaned in and Sierra caught a distinct scent of discord drifting her direction from the rescued man before them.
Sierra wondered what Elias' decision would be. Would they remain a trio? or was she going into the wolves den alone? It was odd how comforting two complete strangers could be when the situation shifted to a new paradigm. No matter his decision, her's had been made and she'd follow through. Sierra just kept reminding herself, these were just different pack of wolves that will eat you for dinner if you show weakness.
