Apples are sweet and so are you

Once it was confirmed that Rava was expecting and after seeing the state that Venom was in he immediately got to work on a larger, more substantial den for them within the borders of Ashen. He knew he would have to spend more and more time here at least until things settled down again and he couldn't keep asking Rava to travel back and forth with him so that he could keep an eye on her and her wellbeing when she had very quickly begun to show the signs of her pregnancy. It was obvious that it was either going to be a large litter or their children were going to be quite large like him and Void or maybe even both. A part of him felt guilty for having her carry their pups for them when she was so small, but he was also so incredibly excited to have her be a part of this journey with them.

The den he originally showed to Rava had been dug out into a much more spacious den with a shelf dug into the back wall and a large, plush bed that was more than big enough for the three of them and the pups that would join them sooner rather than later. It still wasn't as fleshed out or as grand as the home he had created for them in the hot springs, but it was more than enough for them to move here at least through Rava's pregnancy and until the world calmed down again. Although if he could manage to get Abaven's alpha to agree to let Void leave so that he could join Ashen as well... Maybe he would spend more time creating them a more permanent home here. He had already been spending most nights here with Rava so she wouldn't be alone, only going to their home by the hot springs to visit with Void before they both went their separate ways again. That wasn't the way he wanted to live his life with his husband, especially not when they had pups on the way.

He returned back to the den among the pale trees of the forest after another patrol with a rabbit dangling from his jaws. Rava was easy to spot among the nearly white trees, her black and red coloring standing out like a beacon between the trees. A little smile pulled at his lips as he looked at her, walking over to where she was resting and placing the rabbit in front of her before nuzzling affectionately between her ears. "How are you feeling, my little apple?" he questioned with a chuckle. With her red coloring and the way her stomach and sides had become so round the little nickname had come easily. He came to lay beside her while she had her lunch, his tail curling protectively around her smaller frame.
