Every Fire is a Lesson Learned

Alena visibly flinched and snapped her head to look at him and saying that no pups were out yet. At least he was in time to help before any young appeared, Bane ducking into the main chamber and curling up behind her. A few comforting licks were placed on the back of her neck from his reaching muzzle. A moment later and with a pained whine Alena reached down and began to clean their first pup. Bane shifted on his paws and crawled around her front to look at the white and black female, Jian. He watched the pup nurse while waiting for the second arrive, a curious sniff being given to the blood scented female. Bane spent a moment thinking god just how many pups there were going to be.

A good while passed and a second pup arrived, Bane watching Alena clean blood off the small grey male. Bane brought himself close to inspect it as it was, a whispered "Nako" being given as he watched it get cleaned. The wall of the den was leant against as he gave a slow blink of his sapphire eyes. Nako... a good name. Bane fought back a laugh as he watched the little male feed and squirm against his sister, both of the little wolves falling asleep one after the other once their bellies were full. Band continued to watch Alena as well as the dens entrance, rather content that he'd finally produced pups after the tragic loss of his first four... and his mate.
