Time to meet the beans

Sirius had promised Zee that she would be meeting some grandchildren in that grueling journey home. He gave her time with the reunion of their kids, and to settle back into their den. The storm that had come set their sleeping routine - cuddling until bedtime, and then gently ushering Zee to the safety nock.

It was only a few days, and it was suppose to give Zee a chance to fill out. That she hadn't done so was worrying - but maybe some puppy cooing would help?
She did seem a little more rested, and he hoped that wasn't imagination.
It was time she got bombarded with pupps. He rose and stretched in the morning, and gently nudged at the alcove she rested in. “Zee, are you ready to meet your grandchildren?” he asked, already knowing the answer. Grinning at her, he shuffled to the den entrance and howled to Satira and Arcturus.
