Among The Petals

Being alone was slightly frightening, what if something went wrong? She shook her head, no even if she had to she could do this alone. She had been a den mother for years and trained under Erani and had once held the title of Primary Theta. She could do this as long as she remained calm. Though when a voice sounded outside she could not help to sigh of relief. Deviant had proved to be a loyal and trustworthy friend. All three of them had hit it off rather well. So well Imena had considered to ask him to be the Godfather of her children, but still needed to ask Cael about it.Yes Deviant, they are ready. She called back in a calm and steady voice from inside the den.

The contractions were growing stronger, blindfully painful but she was determined. She wasn't sure when in that time Cael arrived. But she couldn't have been more grateful to have him there. She quickly lapped up the herbs he brought, thank the heavens she wasn't the only healer. Her claws dug into the soil, head breathing harsh and labored. This was it, the first pup was making it's way into the world. She did not fight it, did not fear but grew excited, anxious to see the first born pup, to look upon what Cael and she had created. The process was running smoothly, if not a little bit fast. A pup emerged at her hindquarters and naturally she turned to snap him from the sack and clean him off. Oh what a brilliant ebony little boy. His fur glistened in the gloom, darker than the shadows. She gently moved him to her belly before her head laid back down on the floor. Her sky blue eyes never leaving her son. He was so handsome, full of warmth and life. Already she adored him, it was all in one first look and her whole world moved around him.

In no time another was rushing to make its entrance into the world. It took longer, her strength slowly ebbing away from her. She was growing so tired and feared she'd pass out from exhaustion by the end of it all. But alas a second pup laid on the earth. Unlike her brother she was the complete opposite. White as snow, pure. She seemed to radiant in the den and was immediately crying out, sharp and hoarse. It took a lot of effort for Imena to move her to her belly next to her brother without bumping her. The little girl was so tiny though, so light in weight. When Imena laid her down she gasped at how tiny she was compared to her brother, not only that but she was so thin. Worry creased her brows, but at least the pup was alive and screaming her head off like she life depended on everyone knowing she had entered the world.

A break was given to her as she waited for the third and last pup. It didn't seem as bold and demanding to make its way out like its brother and sister. She laid her head on Cael's paws, eyes fixed on her two pups at her belly taking their first vital nourishment. Cael...she's so tiny.. She whispered, eyes fluttering. She wanted to sleep so bad right now. But she couldn't, she could still feel one more pup in her, wiggling and squirming. It must have been a while before finally the last pup was there. In the dying light, or so it seem from the passing of time, she gazed down at the last pup. He was the complete equality of his siblings. A nice shade of grey, closer to her in color but with large white markings engulfing his front legs and face. She cleaned him up as quickly as she cloud, pulling him to the other side of his sister. With a sigh of pure joy she closer her eyes, but mind was still awake.
