She stood there, stiff and rigid till one of the pups came towards her. At once her snarling had ceased to a stop, ears perked up and her face softened besides the evidence of pain. Her mind came back to her, oh her sweet little Feli. She was about to drop to the ground as he neared her. But then something blocked her view. At once she went back to the enraged mother. Body pulled back sharply, ears pinned down again as an earth shattering growl as her eyes fixed on Gitan. How dare someone block her path from her own child! But as her eyes fixed on his deep green pools she softened. This was no stranger, this was not just some wolf she knew. He was her mate, her love. A strangled gasp left her and her body seemed unable to hold her up no longer. She crashed to the ground with a muffled yelp from landing on her broken leg.
She looked up at Gitan, eyes glazed in exhaustion, pain, and the inability to keep focus. But she saw him, saw them all now clearly. She saw Sorrel and Cerise in the background huddled together in fear. She saw Feli through Gitan's legs, then up to Gitan's face. "My babies...I just want my babies" She said softly as tears streamed down her face. They were all here, all safe and whole. The stress she had been under with worry lifted off her heart. They were ok, sobs racked her body in pure brilliant relief. "They're..ok..my babies" She gasped out.
