A few full moons later, Snowfang received the name of Snowflake. Oakfang became Oakleaf. They became mates. Robinwing, her brother, was suspicious of his sister's sneaking out. One night, he followed her to the oak tree. When he saw Oakleaf, he became outraged and attacked him.
"YOU—FILTHY—WINTERPACK—DOG!" he snarled as he attacked him. "WHAT-ARE—YOU—DOING—WITH—MY—SISTER? DON'T YOU KNOW SHE'S EXPECTING PUPS?"
"She's my mate, and they're going to be my pups!" Oakleaf snarled back.
"Stop it, both of you!" Snowflake growled. "I'm ashamed of you, Robinwing! If you were me, you would—"
"Not have betrayed my Pack's secrets to another Pack!" her brother interrupted. "You're a disgrace to SpringPack; you did so when you took Oakleaf as a mate. I'm ashamed to be your brother!" He turned to Oakleaf. "If we ever meet in battle, I'll kill you. That's a promise!" He headed back to the city, where he knew there were no other traitors.
