Drowning in a Pool of Regret

Pain riddled her body, stomach clenching every so often. Instinct took over, forcing her to push after each contraction. She vaguely found the pain familiar. Surely it was too early for her to be going into labor? She hadn't been carrying the pups that long had she? Somewhere beneath the confusion dread and panic began to spread. No no no. This couldn't be happening. Another contraction, another push. A growl bubbling softly in her throat. Secret. Who was calling her? Eyes drifted open, only to meet the amethyst gaze of a large ebony beast. His face took a moment to register before ears flipped back, pinning against her skull, lips lifted faintly in a weak snarl. Kaios. She needed to get away from him, or she would be good as dead. Whats happening to you? The hell if she knew. Jaws parted in an attempt to tell him to leave, but no words formed. Body stiffened. Another contraction another push. I suggest you leave now. The malice laced words faded away. She was so tired. Eyes only fluttered open once more when she felt the presence of someone standing near her. A familiar scent teased her nostrils. "Kylar." his voice spoken in barely audible tones. He always seemed to show up when she was in some sort of trouble. She got the faint idea that he was keeping tabs on her, tracking her on occasion. Another contraction. This one strong enough to push her upper body off the ground, skull turning to lick her sides, wanting nothing more than the pain to go away. The small lifeless body went unnoticed as it lay quietly on the unforgiving earth. Laying back down, breaths came in short rapid pants, her pelt matted and dirt, its usually shine lost. Tired eyes drifted between the two brutes that stood on either side of her. Dehydration still beat her down. Salmon tongue made a brief appearance to caress her muzzle. Water. It sounded so good. But she couldn't move, her legs useless. Exhaustion swept over. How long had it been since she slept? Or ate? She didn't know. "Talk here." |
