so this is it

Aliana was experienced and more importantly cared about Siren so the tiny Queen had no real reason to feel as she did. She welcomed her into the room, knowing that she made the decision in her own and her children’s best interest. Not just listening to the hormones that turned her whole life upside down. Really though, Dalila’s sweet features pulled her away from any negative thoughts. She treasured the moments their eyes met and her delicate paws ahced to bed held by hers. Even when Chimera appeared one paw was put into Dal’s gentle care when she wasn’t busy offering herbs and comfort.

The first child was received expertly by Aliana and any trepidation about her being here was now far and away as she offered her the most perfect little girl pup. After such a struggle the puppy was the most amazing thing she had ever seen before and even her tired eyes had to behold her tiny form. Caramel ears reveled in the sounds of her needy mewl and the soft warmth of her at her side as she began to suckle. Her breathing smoothed for a moment, her body resting for only a few moments as the next puppy was moved into position.

Her daughter had been birthed with relative ease, much easier than even Siren was expecting. As the next slipped into her pelvis Siren knew this would be the struggle of her lifetime. For the first time since labor started the Queen feared for her life. Chimera nuzzled her cheek, offering his support and his affections at exactly the right moment. She took the herbs from Dal and again pressed into Chimera as her body rippled. Her legs swam and she cried out as blinding pain took over.

Her jaws found Chimera’s arm and her teeth sank into his flesh as she screamed into him. Tears streamed down her face and she was sure that she was being ripped in half. Struggling, screaming, and crying as she willed her second puppy free. That same rhythm repeated for much much longer than she struggled with her first born. In the moments before she finally exhausted herself and gave up, the second pup was finally born.

This time Siren had no energy to seek out the sight of him, she closed her eyes and whimpered softly against Chimera, tears staining her cheeks even through the herbs that Dal had given her. Siren’s haunches were covered in blood, and the boy was struggling to take his first breath after being stuck for so long.
