Tahlia's gaze was towards the ground when she next spoke, guilt and relief going through Bane. So there were others like him that shared his pain... his sorrow... his loss. She had mentioned consent, and that bothered Bane. For this she-wolf deserved to have honesty and dedication now that she'd said she was a widow. Tahlia knew his emotions when it came to losing a mate, and he brushed his cheeks up against her's to share a moment of comfort and understanding. She was just like him when he said it. A widower. A widow. They're tones matching and wrought in understanding at the loss of the one they'd dedicated they're life to. Only they remained however.
"Tahlia," Bane began as he rubbed the side of his neck against her head, good intentions all in his heart and mind now for the words he was about to speak. "There was another female that I'd had a night with, and that union outside of pack bounds has resulted in young between us after our tryst. An Amenti named Alena." Bane stalked around behind Tahlia and came up along her other side, his head low and eyes downcast with what he was going to ask this female, this borderline almost-mate as he spoke again.?"She is going to have our young soon, and if anything I owe it to Alena to be there for her in the first month or so of having pups. I didn't want to go to Amenti and have rumors of a Seracian visiting a female there, so we decided to meet halfway. I will bring her meat and drag carcasses to her and look after our pups when she goes to get water. And while Alena does that, I need to make the pups understand that I am their father, and that I cannot be there for them."
Bane's eyes were filled with sorrow. He was about to have young again, and yet... he couldn't watch them grow. Or guide them towards their purpose in the world... or be there for them when they stumble, when they fall. A deep sigh left his muzzle and he turned to look at Tahlia, sincerity in his eyes. "That is all I plan to give Alena, after that I'm all yours. I'll ask again, do I have your consent to finalize this?"?And with those words Bane might have blew his chance at having a mate again, regret going through his mind, like a certain branch through his side as he waited for Tahlia's response.
