His children seemed to recognize him and who he was to them because the moment his ear pressed against Maija's belly it seemed to explode! There was a flurry of movement; kicks and scratches and nudges. It was so crazy and Taurig loved every minute of it. He would laugh quietly at the antics of his unborn children, even when a few of their kicks landed right against his face. He didn't care, they could kick him, scratch him, bite him and do everything to him as much as they wanted because he loved them that much.
The pups would all begin to settle down and Taurig would pull away from his wife's belly, inclining his skull in her direction, his features full of awe. She was the most magnificent creature in the world, being able to carry his babies inside of him like that. The fact that she was willing to be the mother of his children, as well as his wife made her that much more special. She was really a one in a million type of woman and he was lucky that he had been able to snag her before her ex husband had come back. I love you Maija, my treasure, my beautiful wife. Muzzle would lean forward, brushing against her own, salmon tongue swiping against her lips in a gentle kiss. There was no one he loved on his planet more than his darling wife.
