Not only had he made a child, in all of this, but he'd also made a friend. A lifelong one, he thought. When the boy was old enough to leave with him, he would tell him about his mother - and he would have the choice to do with that information as he would. Aki didn't believe in forcing anyone to do anything, even his son, once he was old enough to make his own choices.
He couldn't help but grin as Renhett spoke, beyond grateful for her. He wasn't a particularly selfless man - and he wasn't used to feeling such gratitude toward another. But he knew this was the only way. "It does feel right," he agreed simply, his voice soft. His gaze continued to rove over the boy. He looked healthy and well. He lacked Aki's own tusks, which didn't come as much of a surprise, but he looked quite similar to him - with a touch of white, perhaps inherited from Renhett herself. "I'll let you rest now. Get some sleep, I'll watch over you two." For.. whatever they needed. Happy, he slid toward the den's entrance, knowing Renhett likely wanted space to nurse and to sleep; he'd been there when she woke, to meet his son more fully and provide whatever the two of them needed. Birth was exhausting, he was sure. She'd probably be hungry when she woke up. For now, he'd shuffle down to his belly and let his head rest on his paws as he peered into the packlands with a content grin etched on his face.
