Afraid to know

Mortis’s shoulder sagged at her answer. He had expected it, but there had still been a little ray of hope. “Now, finding a woman who would be okay to sleep with two guys and let them be the parents of the litter. Now there would be a magic trick.” He sighed softly. Had his father even thought through all the ramifications? With his fathers own rules on breeding and ties, it would be even more complicated than that. He would have to find a wolf that could move into the Armada, either for gestation or forever. If it was a temporary stay then she would also have to be able to swear to give up her ties to the kids. It was complicated, and messy. What had Sirius gotten him into?

His ears perked up a little at her mention of Fireside. His expression was guarded. “Their wolves have a habit of harassing us. Are you sure?” he asked. He trusted her to know what she was doing if she agreed.

He grimaced a little at her last question. Perhaps a strange expression for one looking into puppies for their future. “Yes. Sort of. We have permission from my father, but it has to be organised soon.” That was the truth, just not all of it. As close as he could get without airing their problems.
