He could feel them as they crept closer towards the Alpha's stoic ebony figure. His silent request was so quickly heeded by his pack, tugging them from the bowels of the Ark and the depths of the West. The feline's own inky figure paused upon the ramp, his emerald keenly spied the darkly hued tigress as she emerged from the cover of those shadows. Once upon a time, he had been swift to welcome her back to the fold, doting upon her even despite his own often apathetic nature. This time, however, the Were-King was far more content to remain aloof. After all, this was not the first time that she had come and gone. What use was she to him when she was not present to enforce that role she had chosen herself? This time, he would not coax her back with soft cooing purrs. This time, she would come to him. He watched as Raven bounded ahead, clearly energetic to meet the woman whom she had always been closest too. The similarities of their past seemed to draw the towards one another in a way he hardly understand and yet...even Tetradore was glad to see Raven happy.

His own emerald eyes briefly shifted towards the spotted leopard that settled at his side, knowing well of Tobias' own irritation at Regan's return, only because it interrupted the game time they'd stolen away to take. Even in spite of it, the leopard hardly seemed inclined to act on it, his companion almost peculiarly peaceful as he looked on protectively towards his mate. How love changed a man. The panther's head shook ever so slightly in a brief, fleeting glimpse of amusement, only for his emerald eyes to quickly deviate at the sight of another. Alexis. He had, admittedly, not made nearly as much of an effort with the young woman as he should. His time spent alone with her was fleeting, a fact that he knew well he should remedy - and soon. That cautious, uncertain flick of her ears hardly went unnoticed by the man, a soft, reassuring purring like sound reverberated within his throat as Tetradore made every effort to reassure her she was indeed wanted at that meeting. It was time the full pack got to know one another, now that there would, potentially, be two new members to their ranks. If they could be called new.

The sound of footfalls caused his ears to flick, his emerald gaze cast behind him only to fall on the familiar figure of the she-wolf. His own enchanting enigma. His gaze roved her dark form with a sort of hunger, their last venture together still fresh enough within his mind and yet, Tetradore hardly made an effort to move towards her, much less offer her that physical glimpse of affection within the full view of the pack at large. He watched as she moved to settle at his side, the man entirely aware of the soft brush of her bushy tail against him, his own flicked in response, brushing against her frame in an almost boyish flirtatious fashion as his gaze turned back towards the tigress ahead of him. He watched as Raven moved back towards them, whimpering all the while in an almost encouraging fashion, only to nuzzle against Alexis' petite figure before moving onto her made. The sound of Henry's own soft paws upon the floor drew his attention, his gaze fluttering back towards his own Vector with a small glimpse of approval, that very look distracted him from the lupine, that sudden brush of her body against his caused his head to turn abruptly back towards her in a small show of surprise. Her ebony coat, however, held the very scent of Regan herself and all those foreign lands the woman had visited in her absence.

His nose wrinkled and yet, Tetradore said nothing of it, simply letting Raven settle besides her best friend and mate as Regan herself slinked close, her very gait almost seemed hesitant, unsure of herself. Tetradore's gaze met the amphyst irises of the tigress as she paused before him, offering him one singular word. It was enough to placate the panther, the Were-King rose to his feet. Tetradore stepped forward, his cheek brushed ever so gingerly against her own, that very dominant part of the man near demanding he ensure it was his scent that covered her frame. His body moved along aside hers, sliding against her dark figure in that very effort to coat her in those very scents of himself. "Are you staying, or is this just a visit?" His baritone voice inquired, pressing into the very minds of all present. It was good for the pack as a whole to know where she stood and what her involvement in them would be, if any.
