The signal usually was a warning that a full-scale battle was on its way. "Who is he to tell me what to do?""He is the King of All Familiar." H'riar sighed deeply. It was a weary, drawn-out exhalation. This was the fifth time he had had this 'discussion' with his brother's daughter!On occasion, the girl could be as stubborn as her older brother, Brygar.Unfortunately, this was such an occasion.He sighed again, shaking his head.H'riar had always thought Soosha the sweetest and prettiest of his family's kits, with her smoky black hair, aqua /gold eyes, engagingly inquisitive features and happy disposition. Normally she was the most even tempered among the entire family.Except when her fur was rubbed the wrong way.Then, beware!"Yes, Soosha, he can stop you." H'riar reiterated that for the eleventh time.The Familiar girl began to pace. Another bad sign."He is being unreasonable! I will be perfectly fine.""Taj Gian disagrees." Recently, their king had recalled all Familiar back to their homeworld of M'yan, forbidding any off-planet travel.Even trips to Aviara were curtailed.Of course, he had done this for their safety.
