Dreams Made Flesh [M]

She had responded to Erani's call by simply following suit and going to her. She was nervous, excited, and anxiousness swelled within her, buzzing around her as she waited with her family. Erani was going to have her children, oh she was so incredibly happy for her. Her mother was going to have puppies - that meant that she would have siblings! It didn't matter in that moment that she would not get to see them grow, only that they come out healthy and Erani be happy. She felt a bit awkward, around Nova, the enourmous beast of a male that Erani had apparently been properly courted by. Meeting his eyes was hard, not because he was intimidating, but because she knew nothing about him and they were... sort of... family?
It was a bit strange.
She waited vigilantely outside of the den that night, her mind buzzing with thoughts and anxiousness and excitement put her a bit on edge. The girl had almost snapped at the poor little Glaciem healer, but she had introduced herself to Nova quickly, and the yearling immediately let herself relax. Inside, she could hear voices occasionally, and Erani's quiet grunts as she effectively gave birth. The smell of blood and hormones made her jolt - because she worried that Erani was quite possibly hurt. Yet there were no words from the healer to signal something going wrong.
The waiting was hard, but she did so - and continued to wait until she heard Asheni's sweet little voice congratulate the couple.
They were parents!
And there was no covered sense of loss, no with held pain, the air was jovial - there were no stillborn or unhealthy pups in this litter. Erani's family was perfect, she deserved it, Chrysanthe couldn't have been happier for the fae. She was leaving Valhalla soon, and this was just the way that she wanted to do it - with beautiful life in her wake. They would be a part of Valhalla's future, they were her siblings, they would be strong because their parents and their pack were strong.
Quietly she peeked her head in, not daring to squeeze in because with Nova in there she wasn't quite sure whether there would be enough room for another wolf. Yet she barked gently, happily, expressing her congratulations. "Congratulations!" She would get the chance to brush against the woman and see the little squirming pups with due time. For now, this was Nova and Erani's moment, and she was hesitant to intrude too much more. "How many are there?" She asked aloud, not caring who answered her. She wondered whether her mother was right about their being five of them.
