Someone told me maybe

It seemed a silence settled over them as Haydee reined them in. The two pups were definitely rambunctious if not anything else. Fenix was trying to wrap his head around it, but already his fatherly instincts were beginning to kick in again. What did the gods bless him with in his time of depression. While their birth had seemed difficult, they were safe now and all thanks to this albino male. Sadly he had a feeling he was another one of Rubys victims. If he’d known the stranger was a murderer he probably would have thought less about sleeping with her. She’d been the one to initiate the contact he’d been rather surprised when he found her in his temporary den at the mines. Giving a soft sigh the meager looking male stepped up to the trio. Lowering his body to be face to face with the pups.

"It’s true, I’m your father but if calling me dad makes you too uncomfortable Fenix is fine." he smiled gently his heart filled with sudden warmth. Like karma was giving back to him during his recovery. "Copper, Alexandrite, you are both welcome in my family and to ethne. Here we look after each other and it makes us strong. I will always care for you no matter what." he nodded his head. Though his eyes glancing over Bellamy. Oh hell this was embarrassing and he was trying to brush it off but after he literally cried his eyes out to her he didn’t know how to feel.

"If you want to stay why don’t we get you a nice meal and a warm bed to sleep in." Fenix eyes glittered with affection. He remembered his daughter and son previously who’ve been taken from him. Gone too early and now he’d lay down his life to make sure these wayward pups reached adulthood and lived fulfilling lives.
