Now that they were bigger, reaching Owen's chest, they were moved to a larger enclosure. The raptors nervously peered at their surroundings while the humans watched them from behind the bars. Owen and Barry were observing from catwalks overhead.
"I don't like this place...it doesn't smell like us or Alpha." Delta said as she constantly moved her head around and shifted from foot to foot.
"Owen," Kagome corrected. "And he's not my alpha."
If Charlie could roll her eyes, Kagome imagined her sister would've. "He's Alpha. He gives us food and protects us from the other humans when they point their teeth at us."
"I only have one alpha and Owen's not him." Kagome honestly couldn't remember if her alpha had been Inuyasha or Sesshomaru at this point but she knew it wasn't this man called Owen. Even if she sometimes followed his commands. Or occasionally back down from him when he used that 'Don't mess with me' tone. Or let him pet her even when her instincts told her that his flesh would make a nice snack. Or glance at him when she was nervous and wanted some reassurance. Nope. Not her alpha.
"If you think he's alpha, why do you all keep trying to take a chunk out of him every other day?" Kagome asked as she scratched the ground.
Charlie seemed to grin. "We must keep Alpha on his toes. Plus, there can always be a new Alpha."
A/n: so that was today's grain of rice. somebody asked me if I'll bring any other Inuyasha characters into this. Honestly wasn't planning on it. But also wasn't really planning anything so it could happen. Maybe I'll bring in one character. any suggestions?
