[Luca]

Luca had a bad history with Argus's children. He didn't know Snare's lineage yet, and perhaps it was for the best. It was true that Luca had been trying to improve himself lately, leave his past behind him and become a 'better person' (whatever that meant) but that didn't mean that he wouldn't be... tempted. After all, what better way to hurt a parent than through their children? The whole ordeal with Willow seemed to have really gotten beneath the skin of his enemy, especially when Luca started dating her afterwards. His original plan had been to break her heart, to scar her in more ways than one, but he would be lying if he said that he hadn't grown attached to her over time. What had started off as another way to hurt the wolf soon developed into genuine affection. But then she had disappeared, and Luca never saw her again. He was too afraid to ask Argus about the whole ordeal.

Luca squinted at Snare as he dug though the sand at camp. Just seeing the gritty sand that coated the wolf's fur made him shudder, the phantom feeling of being coated in dirt washing over him. He stuck his tongue out and shook out his fur, deciding to figure out what this pup was up to. "Hey, what're you doing?" He asked, sitting just a small ways away from the hole. "Diggin' for crabs or something?" When he was younger his brother used to say that if you deg beneath the air bubbles in the sand you'd be able to find a crab. Luca had never been successful, but god knows he tried.
