Poem was exhausted. She had expected the pain along with the indescribable feeling of love that gripped her as she was finally able to look down and adore her children. She knew the moments would be brief as her body begged to be able to sleep after the ordeal of giving birth to five new puppies. Sparhawk remained supportively behind her through the whole birth, and his comfort and presence just as important or more than the healers beside them. He named the other two children perfectly, their son Poetry and their second girl Fable. Poem relaxed into Sparhawk as the excitement dwindled and she realized the reality before her. ”I love you, Sparhawk.” She smiled, the expression was tired and dreamy but she felt every ounce of adoration for the man who held her and gave her this perfect little family. Theory remained supportive beside her, just in case something happened. Lyric was there to learn from this experience, in case his presence was needed somewhere in the future. As the new parents gazed at their tiny family Sparhawk reminded her of the other two wolves to experience the birth. ”Thank you both.” She echoed sleepily, moving very little as she tried not to disturb the nursing puppies. They were as eager for a nap as she was and already the strength of their nursing was subsiding. Sparhawk -- Poem
