turn of events

Indigo would do whatever Resin asked of him without complaint or hesitation. He was at her beck and call now, and he was sure that she would keep him busy enough that he wouldn’t even have the time to wallow in his sadness. He’d never ever forget his feelings for Aslatiel or their agreement and goals they had for the future. For now his waking conscience would focus on his new pack.

For a moment he was worried that he wouldn’t be allowed to bring his best friend with him. He wanted and needed Rue so he didn’t feel so alone. After a moment Resin spoke and the words astounded him to the point of freezing him with his eyes wide open. Rue would be allowed to come with him, but Resin warned bluntly they could not make any children. Indigo’s thoughts hadn’t even touched on future offspring, he was having trouble growing up himself without thinking about all that. Rue wouldn’t want to have children with him anyway. Would she?

Indigo shook his head borderline violently. ”No.” He was quite eloquent today. ”No litters here.” He assured her as his voice cracked with his emotion. He wasn’t sure if he’d ever be ready for children. He shook himself again before he lifted his head and called for his best friend.
