"Rikki," Rex said.
"Hullo there," Rikki said with that casual golden friendly absent-minded smile. Oh yes, another one who will trot about after me I suppose. His collar was black with a curious silver flourish, like writing, by the buckle.
Red managed an aggressive little grin at him which showed her sharp teeth. He was taken aback at this and tilted his head nervously round to the women at the oven.
They were all looking at her politely. She cleared her throat and said in a voice which was even more husky than usual; it had been so long since she'd talked with anyone: "I'm Red. Is this all of you?" There was a sort of ripple through them, partly amusement.
"No," Max drawled. "You have yet to meet Col."
They surveyed her thoughtfully. She got the impression that Col was so significant he could even distract them from the tantalising sweet bloody savour of meat hanging in the air. She was puzzled because she knew Rex was the Alpha. She felt a renewed twist of fear at the thought of another significant male she would have to negotiate with. What would she be expected to do for him in order to be accepted by the pack?
"I wonder what Col will say to you," Max drawled, tilting his elegant dark-haired head and regarding her with the muddy green eyes under a raised eyebrow.
Rob snorted with laughter. He hunched his shoulders and squashed his puppyish muscular frame up to make it seem smaller. He pushed his head forward, giving the impression of energy straining at the leash and he affected a bad Irish accent. "He'll say, Foocking Hell!" Rob sniggered. "What the foock is this?!"

sheabluealmost 10 years agoOh my oh my! This is an enticing entry into the story following A wolf in office clothing. (shoot, did I get that right?) I'm so intrigued to read more and to find out why (if there is a reason) that female werewolves are so rare. This is a special pack, I can tell, and I'm really looking forward to learning more about them. I think the collars, though maybe not a common werewolf convention, makes perfect sense for a group of people trying to control their baser natures and live among other people. A collared dog (wolf) is a tame dog, yes? There are no rules in werewolf lore, and this addition is really fascinating. I'm rushing ahead to the next chapter!
Anonymousabout 11 years agoGood story,,,but collars on wolves,,,this is a new spin on things.and im hoping you will eventually explain them,as you are the only writer i have seen with collars before,and it seems a bit strange,,,,keep up the good work...
NaokoSmithabout 11 years agoAuthorLOL! I hope I make it to your Favourites List, rather than being one of the Favourites you Lost.
In my editor's defence, I should say that A Werewolf in Office Clothing was published before she came into my life. I hold my hand up to admit it's quite badly written although I still like the story and several other people did too - that was why I decided to write A Pack of Tales.
You can learn more about Col and his girlfriend Bryony in that first story and there are some in jokes you will appreciate better in Chapt. 2 if you've read it. It isn't a necessary requisite for A Pack of Tales, 'tho - bit like all of the sex scenes which you can take or leave according to your personal likes and dislikes.
Anonymousabout 11 years agoRead the Werewolf in Office Clothing story to.learn about Col.
I am having mixed feelings about your werewolf style, NaokoSmith, but I am willing to read the next chapter or two to learn more before I deciding if I should move on or put you on my favorites lost when I finally get around to making an account on Lit. Looking forward to chapter 2!
NaokoSmithabout 11 years agoAuthorI love to get comments.
Of course, I do get an extra thrill when people are complimentary - and wow Anonymice 1, 2 and 4 - you really made my day! I actually did write a blogpost recently celebrating kind Anonymous comments. You keep me publishing my writing.
Sara Rasmussen has obviously done a great job for me as there are no complaints about my grammar and rather opaque writing style! which I usually get a few of, so you can see I'm working in response to comments.
Chapt 2 is already in the system, due to be uploaded soon. It's a steamy sex scene. I put it in Romance (although it may get put back in here), since no collars come off in it, ie., people stay human.
Speaking of collars, I recognise that there is a particular werewolf erotica genre which has certain traditions, conventions and tropes and that I'm not writing quite that kind of werewolf story. Anonymous3 and Willieone, I apologise if I'm twisting anyone's tail in writing against the grain. One of the things I like about writing werewolf stories is exploring ways in which we experience and also manage instinctive, physical impulses, what we think of as our animal rather than our rational side. Obviously the collars symbolise a group of people who find their animal side hard to control trying to get a grip on potentially dangerous behaviour. As Cannd says, dogs are a sub species of Canus Lupus, the grey wolf; the werewolves in this pack sometimes behave like really fun pet dogs, some people like that and some find it annoying - let me know how you feel.
AzhureDragon, there will be more background in Chapt 3, which I'll post up today. (May take a few days to go live as there is a competition going on.)
Cannd - you can't give me enough feedback! Write as much as you like. PM me if you want to write even more! Be my friend on Facebook and hassle me about the background information I haven't yet provided!
Most of the pack will get their own stories told, although I'm having trouble getting a specialist reader for Chapt. 4 in which Max has a quiet night out (ROFL!).
