Her sole focus shifts as Lucian's words reach her ears, jaw closing from the open-mouth snarl she had been aiming at the older man. Though her wound and body aren't rebelling against her, she knows that this fight can't keep going. Pulling away and exhaling a breath, Aneira let's her focus and senses expand outward. 

Various doors below are opening, voices murmuring amongst themselves as soft footsteps follow. They've drawn attention from the other tenants, which can only mean one of two things. She needs to wave the verbal white flag and try to explain just why they're here, or turn tail and flee and hope they find another place. A low whimper has her head turning to find the other woman lurching to her paws, head shaking once Aneira exhales a huff and closes her eyes.

The shift this time moves fluidly along her body, no extreme pain aside from thr tug along her side where the bullet had been. Her eyes open, and widen as she's met with an open mouth and rows of sharp teeth. Her right arm lifts to block the attack, her left lifting and aiming a punch straight agaisnt a black nose. 

"We're not here to take your territory or cause problems." She says succinctly with her eyes flicking from one wolf to the other, body curled and head slightly ducked so she wouldn't accidentally flash anyone. Her ears catch the faint sound of claws moving along the floor, she shakes her head and huffs out a breath. "My friend and I, as well as these two strays just need a place to stay and rest for a few days." She adds with a frown tugging her lips down, attention pulled away when something soft is nudged against her bare thigh. Echo has a shirt in his mouth and his tail wagging, Pipper stands beside him with a glance at everyone and a twitch of her ears. 

Slipping the shirt on she feels slightly better, not minding that it's double hrt size, and has a faint scent of sweat and dried blood. Below voices and movement move almost as a group, no doubt the others are trying to find out where the noise is coming from. With a click of her tone and and an annoyed glane at both, Aneira lifts a brow and shifts so that she's kneeling on her knees. "Unless you want the othe tenants to start asking questions or come up here. Maybe we should go somewhere to talk?" She says it with a blank face, tone soft in the silence. Someone needed to be the responsible adult here, and if no one wanted to listen to Lucian then she would have to take charge.
