Nexus frowned- pretending to be fully invested;
"She? What do you mean she?"
"It was a she-wolf newbie. Trust me on that. I slid under it at some point, and there weren't any foul smelling balls. It was at that moment I understood why it was so violent. It literally upgraded to beast mode because it was trying to protect its children. . ."
She continued narratively;
". . .of course, I could have very easily blown the bitch to pieces, but I didn't want to do that, so, we tussled a bit, and at the end of the day, it couldn't stand going toe to toe with me. Wolves, especially alphas are astute at sniffing out weakness–"

Allowed himself to be entertained by her half-truths, Nexus grinned as he pulled himself to the top.
