The last place she wanted to be right now was out in the open sitting on the deck of the ship. There were no walls around her that could offer her some protection. She was out in the open, a perfect target, and she was not thrilled with her current situation. If she would have called for a pack gathering it would have been somewhere safe within the Ark, like the kitchen, one of the storage closets, or even out in the bar. At least they would have been inside where they would all be safe. The smell of fresh air, in this case salted air, wasn't as relaxing as one might think. Since the attack she rarely came out of her room and she preferred it that way. No one hardly bothered her. Jackal came every now and then to check on things and take away her hardly eaten dishes of food. It was Tobias that came in almost every day to try and get her out of her bedroom by trying to stir or rile her up or attempting to trick or order her around. It wasn't a very kind thing to deny him, but to her it needed to be done. It was not in her interest to be outside but she heeded the subtle pulls of the need to be with her pack. There was safety in numbers and she knew very well that Tetradore and Tobias would at least keep Frost at bay should he show up. As for Nadya, well, she had absolute no idea what the jaguar would do, and tonight she really didn't want to know. The last thing she wanted was another run in with Frost and she didn't want anyone else to get hurt by him.

Lying beside Tetradore was quite an odd and unfamiliar feeling. Hardly did she allow herself to be this close to him. Always she made sure to keep plenty of space between the two. Afraid that they could be attacked she felt rather content and safe lying beside her Alpha...yet at the same time she was a bit anxious. She had no idea if she was allowed to lie beside him or not, but he hadn't pulled away when she leaned into him. It did not bother her that Nadya was climbing over him, her eyes were shut, and she was trying to focus on the idea that nothing bad would happen. It was the sound of Tetradore purring that caused the peculiar colored lupine to flinch away from the Panther as her head jerked up suddenly in alarm, believing she was hearing him growl. Not sure what she did wrong she would turn and look at Tetradore, expecting some sort of glower look or his black lips pulled back to reveal his long sharp teeth, and yet he appeared almost...relaxed. Thinking all was well she was about to lay her head back down until she heard the odd chipping sound coming from the kitten that had the audacity to climb over her paws and swat his little paws at the thick rough of her neck. Not really sure what to do, seeing how she had an overprotective Mother with easy access to pounce on her, she simply blinked and stared at him.

One grey-trimmed ear twitched when she heard Nadya explain to her exactly what this cub wanted to do. With a rough snort she laid her head down allowing the kitten some sort of chance to climb on top of her. As his tiny form struggled to climb his back paw with his tiny claws managed to bump the top of her sore shoulder causing a soft whimper to utter from her closed jaws as the acute pain he caused seemed to trigger a memory. Flashes of Frosts' attack was replaying in her mind and was thrown into everyone else's mind through the pack bond. Snippets of her being frozen and stuck to the ground while Frost slammed his massive sized-hooves into her body repeatedly came and would shift to the image of Frost lifting her battered form and throwing her a few times into the wall and that would be the last image to appear. With a heavy sigh she turned her head away from Tetradores' direction, providing the kitten more room to stand on her neck or to hide her shame from her Alpha it could not be said, but she would lift her head up as the kitten scrambled down from the sound of Tobias' growl. Quietly she would move herself to accommodate Tobias to lay between her and Tetradore content to hear his familiar purr quietly beaming at his singular word of ownership. Tobias' question to invite her to the hunt caused her to shake her head as she gently declined his offer with valid reason.

"I am still sore and I would slow all of you down...it is best if you three go."

It was an excuse, but she found it a rather reasonable one. It had been awhile since she had eaten and already she looked semi-malnourished and already had a hard time walking around in her form. Not really wanting to be a burden again she thought the decline on his offer had satisfactory reasons and it helped hide the fact she found it entirely uncomfortable to leave the Ark in the first place. While Tobias was discussing the idea of cannibalism she lifted her top of her head underneath his jaws pressing the side of her head into his throat in a kind and reassuring gesture. Tentatively her eyes shifted towards the familiar emerald gaze of her Alpha as she hesitantly asked her own question.

"Frost won't come back here...will he?"

Her eyes would roam away from Tetradore and focus on Nadya and for a brief moment she caught sight of the male kitten. Though a frown would appear on her face her voice carrying a concerned tone as she looked back to Nadya.

"Didn't you have another one....where is it?"
