A Pack's Journey Home. Private (2) with tenebria

[Abbster]

Bella beamed with pride as well. “YES WILLOW!” She said, smiling and licking her ears. “I’m so proud of you” she said as her gaze turned to the hopper. “Oooooo” Bell said, her stomach growling hungrily. She grabbed the hopper and began eating. “Thanks Thunder” Bella said through a mouth full of food.

Daisy blinked again. She looked at her sister. If she was getting praise for talking…maybe Daisy would to. Suddenly, out of no where. She said. “Willow!” She blinked. That was a new word.

[tenebria]

Thunder grinned happily, then smiled to his mate "Of course darling" he said, nuzzling Willow again. Willow wagged her tail joyfully, then looked over at her name, coming from her sister's mouth! She let out a yip of surprise and tackled her. Thunder looked surprised as well "Daisy!!! well aren't you smart!! Good job!" he said, beaming again.

[Abbster]

Daisy rolled around with Willow and tackled her on the soft ground of the healers den. She grabbed her tail in her sisters mouth and began wagging it. "I think those two are the closest" Bella commented to her mate

[tenebria]

Thunder chuckled and nodded "I agree!" he said as Willow let out a yelp and spun to grab her sister's tail, sticking them in an unending circle.

[Abbster]

Daisy growled, and let go of her sisters tail. "Daisy. Willow!" Bella said. Daisy dropped her sisters ear, and looked at her mother, tilting her head to the side. "No rough housing in the healers den" she said. "Thunder...should we take them outside?" she asked, as Saylor jumped up and ran to join her sisters in the wrestling.

[tenebria]

Willow dropped her tail and looked over, then snuck a look back to Daisy, wondering if she should try and jump on her. Thunder chuckled "That might be for the best, but you have to promise to stay in the shade" he said firmly.

[Abbster]

Bella sighed. "ok" she said. "I promise I'll stay in the shade" Bella said, licking her mates nose before standing up and trotting out of the den with her four kits...who instantly began rolling and playing again. Bella just chuckled. "Thunder" she called. "can you stay with me?" she asked

[tenebria]

Thunder smiled, nuzzling her and then urging the pups out of the den, watching her lay down near the entrance of the den, then turning his attention to the energy filled pups. At her call he looked over and trotted back to her. "of course my darling" he said, nuzzling her.

[Abbster]

Bella smiled, and snuggled against him, licking his nose as the pups began playing energetically. "they sure do have a ton of energy for mid afternoon" Bella said with a smile to her mate. "Thunder" Bella said, looking at her mate. "I have a question for you.." Bella looked at her paws. This wasn't something she and Thunder had talked about yet, but Bella already knew her answer to this question.

[tenebria]

Thunder chuckled and nodded, then nuzzled her again, his eyes questioning. "What is it darling?" he asked.

[Abbster]

“Well….I know this is so…sudden” Bella said, chuckling a bit. “But do you think when these four start their training to be something…you’ll want another litter?” Bella asked. “I know I do…but we’ve never really talked about it.

[tenebria]

Thunder paused, sitting beside her and nuzzling her thoughtfully before smiling "I would love more pups my darling, these four have brought such happiness and life, and I know when they are older I would love to feel that again" he said lovingly.

[Abbster]

Bella smiled. “I knew you would agree” she said, licking his muzzle, and pressing into him. “I want to feel the sun warm my pelt” Bella said, with almost a sad sigh.

[tenebria]

Thunder smiled widely and licked her nose, nuzzling her, then glancing to the sunlight. "Well I'm sure you could for maybe just a few moments" he allowed.

[Abbster]

Bella smiled and passed into the sunlight beside her mate. She settled down beside him again, and watched as their pups wriggled and played with one and other.

Atlas padded back to his den after his guarding. “Hi my darling” he said to Autumn, nuzzling her gently as he sat down beside her.
