Chapter 2
Kiona was now waking up. The first thing she heard was distinct chattering. She gets up and walks outside. She sees Saba talking with Nava and Niju. Saba was the first to notice Kiona. “Good morning,” Saba says to her, “I hope আপনি slept well.”
“I did, I guess,” Kiona replied. She looks at the two wolves. “Who are they?”
“My name is Nava, and this is my companion, Niju. We were the ones who rescued you.”
“Really? Thank you.” Kiona walks off.
“Where are আপনি going,” Saba asks.
“Home. My human is probably frantic looking for me.”
“But we owe them our lives. We have to stay.”
“How can we trust them? They’re wolves!”
“But we are part-wolf. We are probably no different from them.”
“Our sister isn’t.”
“I know we aren’t as adventurous as Aleu, but we need to be here.”
“Wait. Aleu is your sister,” Niju asks.
“Yes,” Saba and Kiona answered.
“We know her,” Nava says.
Nava and Niju tell their story form the time they met Aleu and Balto, to the time Aleu crosses the Great Water with the clan.
“Our sister is leading an entire clan of wolves,” Kiona asks.
“Aleu was a natural leader. Now it’s our turn.”
“But there is no clan around here.”
“That doesn’t mean we can’t start one.” Saba turns to Nava. “Besides, I have grown fond of this one…”
Nava blushes.
