By the time Doc and Hui'Jin finished their talk about medicine, it was lunch time and the pack was pouring into the dining hall. I'd like to say they were welcoming me back from my work away, but in all honesty, I think everyone was more excited to meet with Hui'Jin.
The kids table where she sat with her new friends was surrounded by adults, everyone with questions she was more than happy to answer. I should have tried harder to convince Lala to come along, she'd love it in the pack house, always filled with people and busy.
Hui'Jin is happy to answer most of the questions, sitting at the table waiting on lunch to be served, with her wings wrapped around a pair of pre teen Lycan girls who have decided they must keep all the boy cooties away from their new friend.
The hubbub doesn't die down until the trays of food reach the tables, everyone moving the conversations back to their seats.
I stand up, grabbing everyone's attention.
