She sat at the borders, gazing out into the unclaimed lands. Waiting. There was no guarantee that she would come back the same way as her scent had left the borders, but Erani would wait and see. She?d been meaning to catch up with each of the children she had helped to raise after the death of their mother. But Neo was very much absent. It made her feel the need to keep a closer eye on each of them. Protect. Cherish. They were the first taste of having children, and she had once thought they would be the only taste she would ever have.
Now, she was hoping. Hoping, and kicking herself for being hopeful. There was no guarantee that her heat cycle meant that she could bear a litter, or even one. And she was afraid. What if Nova stopped liking her after her cycle was over? She frowned, then lifted her head higher as she heard rustling a ways away. Epiphron. Her scent blew into Erani?s face, and she gave a quiet sigh of relief, though she was puzzled by that other scent coming from the same direction. So she sat, and waited as her charge drew nearer.
