Cocum had yet to explore the land that belonged to the pack, but the smell of the salty water had called upon him. The sun was high and despite it being spring with winter close by the temperature was lovely. Cocum stepped out from the trees and the sight of the beach and the salty water had a calming effect on him. Sure he was more relaxed now that he was welcomed into this pack, but the nerves were still there. He walked out to the water and watched how the small waves rolled against his paws. He hung his head down relaxing his neck and shoulders before he rolled around in the water, it was a thing he had enjoyed to do with his sister and it have always made him happy. So why shouldn’t he make himself more happy with a memory from when he was a pup. To him it seemed like a perfect way to start his new life in the pack. He had yet to meet the other wolves beside Alpha Magnus, but he was sure that he would soon meet the others, if not by accident or when he walked around the pack areas. He got up and shook some of the sand out of his fur before he walked a bit further up the shore. He found a nice spot where the sun shined bright. He laid down there for a moment before he could feel his eyes close and he drifted to a relaxing slumber…


He woke up to the sound of birdsong and he looked around for a moment before he decided that it would be better if he got up now that his fur was dry again. He got up and stretched his legs before he walked out to the water before he sat down and looked at the birds that flew over his head, for a moment he was lost in the memory of him and his sister playing by a beach when they were nothing more than pups who didn’t knew about the cruelty of their father.

Cocum turned his head when he heard a voice, he bowed his head a bit in a greeting “ The view is beautiful, so yes it is easy to get lost in such a beautiful and calm view. But this time it was my memory who stole my concentration. " he admitted in a gentle voice. He got up and turned around to look at the fae, the scent of the pack were strong on her suggesting that she had been here a long time. He was pretty sure that the scent of the pack yet had to be strong on him. Perhaps it wasn’t even noticeable unless you tried hard to find a scent. “ A pleasure to meet a pack mate. My name is Cocum and who are you if it isn’t too rude to ask for a name." he said happiness as he once more were surprised on how his words just seemed to roll off his tongue with such ease. He looked closer at the fae without staring at her directly, her fur was thick and he could imagine how hot she must feel in the summer that was soon to come. One of his friends have had a thick fur like that and could often be found swimming around in the water or staying in the shadow during the summer, but once the winter came he would be running around in the snow when others would stick together in their dens. The memory caused a joy to light up his eyes and he did not try to hide it. He looked down at his paws when he felt the water wash over them.

Cocum chuckled a bit “ Indeed it is. ” he said in a neutral tone as he watched how Tatsu changed her stance. He relaxed himself; he didn’t need to be on the bad side of any of his pack mates at the first couple of days.” A pleasure to meet you Delta Tats ” he said and bowed his head slightly before he looked out into the water and sat down again “ I’m a Hunter, I was accepted into the pack by your Alpha Magnus. He made me decide whether my skills were used best as a hunter or as a warrior. ” he said as he inhaled the fresh air. Spending so long, time alone made him really enjoy the company he had gotten. “ Well of my past it can be cut short. I came from a pack known as Calym, my father went mad and I had enough of it so I left after I had brought my sister to another pack. ” he said shortly not going into any details and making sure that he didn’t mention that he was born to be alpha. He knew that some would see it as an offense and he did not want that. “ If it isn’t too rude to ask, but where did you come from before this pack, or were you born in it? ” he asked her curiously trying to sound friendly not wanting to offend her in any way. He looked up at the seagulls as they flew above his head how nice it must be to be able to fly around as you want he thought. He had often envied the birds their ability to fly everywhere they wanted, but after the death of his mother he had found it more important to stay where he was and take care of his siblings.

Cocum listened to her story and the question about why he didn’t bring his sister with him troubled him a bit. Why didn’t he bring his sister with him? He could easily convince her mate to come, then why didn’t he? “ My sister fell in love with a male from another pack. My father didn’t like the male but I could see how much my sister loved him. So when she told me about her plan to leave our birth pack to join her mate’s pack. I agreed to help her cross the border. Our father had gone made and was paranoid, waiting for an attack that only he knew was coming. He made some of the strongest males guard our border. I followed my sister to our border where we were met by two males that had been looking at my sister the wrong way for far too long. I asked them to let us past them at first, they refused. In the end I killed one of them, the first time I ever killed a wolf, after that the second male fled. I followed my sister to the border of her mate’s pack and left her there. I was confident that he would take good care of her. Of course I could have convinced him to come with me, but I saw how well my sister were felling in his presence and their territory were well guarded and prey could often be found. I walked back to my father and our pack. I told him that I had enough of his madness and I left. The last thing I heard my father say was when he disowned me. After that I walked around alone before I stumbled across this border I liked the territory and the feeling that I had around the land. So I decided that I might as well see if I could get accepted. ” he finished his story, it was the first time he had ever told most of the story, of course he had told Alpha Magnus when that he had killed one wolf, and why he did it.” I’m sorry for asking about your past ” he apologized before he looked at Tatsu “ I’m sorry for your loss. I know how it is when those you love turn mad. It’s like the wolf you knew they were died, but you could still see their eyes, their fur and their voice would still be the same. But they are different. ”. He sat down and looked at the water “ My father killed my mother after she had given birth to my younger siblings. It was made public. He called the pack together, and then he made sure that I and my siblings were in front. He killed her himself. I pushed my siblings away before they saw him kill her. After that I admit that I hated my father, the only thing that kept me in the pack were my siblings. After I had followed my sister to her love and seen that my father’s madness had also taken my other siblings I left. ” he said and turned his head to look at her.
