While she was preparing the meal, Akio appeared beside her, and she looked at him as he sighed.
"Are you hungry?" She asked.
"I believe I am," He responded, and she smiled before feeding him, and he began eating while she prepared the king's meal.
"Is he yours?" Tina asked as she entered the kitchen with another servant, and Nessa nodded. Tina patted Akio, who gave her a stern look, and Tina flinched as Nessa smiled nervously.
"What's his name?" Tina asked.
"Akio, he stays at the inn, but he comes to me on occasion," Nessa responded.
"I understand, he loves you, he's cute, but strange, I don't see wolves like him around very often," Tina said, as Nessa sighed.
"I know, he's a special one, different from the other wolves," Nessa replied, and Akio looked at her before she patted him on the head, and he bowed his head before running away because he wanted to appear normal in front of the others.
