third times the charm

Widow was slightly annoyed. How many times would she have to try before she would be pregnant? Hellborn needed heirs and for some reason and not without a lack of effort she had yet to become pregnant. Maybe it was because she was trying? No, that didn't make sense. Though the only other times she had, she hadn't been trying. Though, this time, she had taken some natural supplements... certainly this time would be different? She had to try, because part of her was becoming desperate. None of her present children seemed all too interested in becoming the divine heir she had hoped that they would all fight for... but that was okay. She didn't want to push her children, but if she ever got pregnant again, this next litter would have higher standards, she would expect more from them.... she just had to have them first.

Tempted to call for them to her den, she decided it would be best to separate them and arrive at their own dens instead. Both in one night was certain to have more personal conflicts, considering whoever she would see second would know they were second... And since she was visiting Stolas first, she knew Erebos would have something to say.. or at least think, and she could was fairly certain she could read his expressions by now. Besides, Stolas was her first love... she owed him something.

Arriving at his den, part of her just wanted to throw herself inside and demand him... but what if someone else was here? She couldn't readily pick up any scents of another, but she didn't want to be surprised. Though, she wasn't sure if there was anyone in the pack he would bring to his den... and if there was a loner in there, well she would already have known that since he would have to sneak them in some how! Her ravens would've tattled on him so fast!

"Stolas? Are you in there?" she asked with a softer tone than usual, hoping he was here and not out looking at the stars as he often was this late at night.

"Speech!"
