Little Fiery One

Irilyth arrived promptly while Alastor got situated with Manea, making sure his mate was comfortable for the painful process she was about to endure. He recalled the birth of their twins and how that had gone for her, and already the Genetor was preparing for the worst. This time, however, it seemed Manea had learned her lesson, as when Irilyth offered the Genetrix some distilled medicine she took it without question. Alastor nodded his head to Irilyth, glad for their resident healer's diligent work. At least now maybe some of the suffering she would have to endure would be subdued. With the medicine taken, Manea settled back into his side, and Alastor continued to comfort her to the best of his abilities all throughout her growing contractions. He whispered sweet words of encouragement to her as she grunted and groaned, gritting his own teeth to bare the pain and spike of arousal that hit him when Manea's claws dug into his foreleg. Hopefully this wouldn't take very long.

The first pup didn't take much time at all, and as soon as Manea's contractions hit in force, it was only minutes before he heard his wife let loose a muffled scream followed by a heavy sigh of relief and Irilyth was quick to start tending to their newborn pup. "Well done, my love," he encouraged her with a few tender licks to the back of her neck and her ears. "Just a couple more to go now." Irilyth placed their new daughter at Manea's belly, the small pup already wriggling her way into position to begin feeding. Alastor gazed down at the bundle of brindled red fur that looked as if she were made from living fire, bearing the same flame markings on her coat as he wore. Alastor's heart also melted for the girl who looked so much like him, unable to keep from grinning like an idiot as he stared down at the perfect little being. He didn't get long to admire his child, however, as Manea was already showing signs of beginning the process again. Alastor resumed the position, ready to take whatever she needed to dish out to him to get her through this process, be it cat claws or wolf teeth.
