I'm just the homewrecker now

The albino hadn't planned on Tana returning, and she was currently debating what she was going to do when their mother reappeared at the entrance of the den. Vail's jaw fell open, and thankfully Tana would be unable to see. She would be lying if she said she hadn't been playing mother. It felt so right to have those little bundles curled beside her. Vail sighed inwardly as Noir was placed back with his sisters and all three struggled to nurse as Tana returned to her proper place.

"Did you have a nice walk." She checked, knowing full well that Tana wouldn't have stolen away Noir for a trip around the maple tree. "I don't suppose Rhyme traded places with you and he wound up leaving?" She asked maybe just a little too eagerly. Rhyme very clearly hurt her best friend though, and her sister, he wouldn't likely ever get back on her good side.
