maternity leave

The dog wasn’t thrilled about returning to Ashen’s original lands with his pregnant mate, but she was convincing. Not that Bourbon could tell her no even if he wanted to. Her wish was his command and he would do anything for her, including accompanying her to their once home. When they arrived he worked with her to make sure it was clean again, a task that might have taken her alone five days. They were an excellent team and before long the den looked like it was lived in and not like a hole in the ground.

Luce seemed to relax, her sweet voice was at his ears as she offered him an affectionate nuzzle despite how dirty the pair of them were. He smiled and wagged his tail. ”Anywhere you are is home.” He chuckled as he aimed to steal a quick kiss from her. She was more than half way through the pregnancy, they would have to start making the decision as to where she wanted to give birth.
