When he'd been younger there would have been a time when being with someone who wasn't a wolf, someone who wasn't pack, would be unheard of. Wolves in his world can be very insular for the most part. But at some point along the way, Alcide broke away from that way of life and that line of thinking. He's different from the rest. And he doesn't want to go backwards.

"Guess I should go find Zee... make sure she's not too drunk to stand up." He says this with fondness. Zee's his best friend.
