[Eun follows Asil into the residence, but as much as her attention had been on him during their walk and the drive, her focus shifts to the power she feels inside the residence. The Marrok has a presence, one she did not realize she would be able to feel so strongly as she does before even seeing the man. With her wolf she senses it for what it is. He isn't a king in title, but in Power. For as young as he looks, she sees the weight of years behind his eyes.
There's no part of her that wants to make quips in front of this werewolf, or do anything that might make it seem as though she doesn't respect his authority. His son is intimidating as well, but in a different way, and only offset by the way he regards his own mate. Anna, Eun likes very well, and her wolf seems less restless, more at ease in the presence of the Omega. She's glad to see another woman at Aspen Creek, one who apparently is so close to her own age as well. If nothing else, there will be one person there who may begin to understand her...
Someone besides the wolf who escorted her in, who seemed ready to leave with his duty completed. It's only because Bran tells him to stay that Eun doesn't find herself with the regret of not thanking him for his guidance, both to the Marrok and during the course of their conversation. It seems that they'll have more time to converse. Once she's through with this first meeting.
It goes well enough, at least by Eun's standards and her optimistic hopes. Bran is everything that Asil claimed, and then some. He seems if not friendly, then at least more on the amiable side as he welcomes her to Aspen Creek. When she is asked questions, she answers, with some safe humor when possible. When he speaks--when any of them speak--she listens.
And all at once, she can tell how very different her experience will be here in Aspen Creek. It's not a city the way that she's grown up in or loves, but it is a pack the likes of which she should have been in to begin with. She wonders if they can feel her gratitude already, if they can hear it in her voice as she thanks the Marrok for inviting her there.
The meeting is over in a short amount of time. It feels like a blur, Eun starting with her cautious greetings and answers to responses that are more conversational and relaxed. Smooth and seamless. Before she knows it, she finds herself walking out of Bran's home with Asil and Anna, the latter promising to meet her for breakfast in the morning. When Anna leaves as well, having left Charles to speak with Bran, Eun turns once more to Asil, expression far more quiet and contemplative than it had been before.]
That was... [She's not certain she has the words.] That went well, I think?
