Leland wanted her to know about her roots, the side of Anne that Sophie's mother didn't get the chance to tell her beloved daughter. The responsibility was now on Leland's shoulders.
"But it's not nothing!" Sophie argued and then suddenly calmed down a little. She took a deep breath and looked at him. "There is a reason why you come to this human kingdom and hide among us."
Leland couldn't help but be impressed. Even though he didn't say anything to reveal his pack's motives, she was quick to read in between the lines and silence.
"...I know that I am probably not trustworthy yet," Sophie said. "So I understand why you choose to remain silent."
That was only partly true.
Leland cleared his throat and then glanced in the direction of the two lycan pups in their crib. He suddenly asked, "Would it be alright to see them up close?"
"O-oh, yes…" Sophie slowly said and thought he chose to change the subject.
