The longer she laid there the more intense the pain the pain became. Seconds stretched into minutes and minutes felt like hours. Where was he?! She had begun to panic as contraction after contraction gripped her, the pain and pressure building till she thought for sure she was going to pass out from it. Finally, after what felt like ages her brother's face finally appeared and she sighed with a momentary relief until a dark, gray marked form appeared next to him and she tensed up defensively till she realized it was the woman that Lel had captured. She recognized the girl from the one time she and Lel had come across her together, but she shoved away those thoughts when another contraction hit her like a train and a sharp whine escaped her, panting hard when it passed and letting her head fall back down to the floor of the den.

Jian heard Lel ask about the girl's knowledge of herbs and healing and for a moment she thought the girl might actually be of some use, but her response was nothing what Jian had expected or wanted. In fact, in her pained, hormone ridden state she only felt furry toward the girl. She lifted her head with a growl, fixing her sky-blue gaze on her. "Don't talk about things that you know nothing about. I'm no more brainwashed than you are," she growled out before she gasped, her anger falling to the way side and her teeth gritting together when the pain overwhelmed her yet again.

Something was wrong. This wasn't at all what she had expected, it was all so unbearable. Her nails clawed at the dirt in frantic panic when her vision began to go blurry, the blood loss beginning to get to her and her head going dizzy. Her head fell back down to the ground, gasping in short, heavy breaths. Contractions came and went and she pushed with each one, but no pups appeared. "Lel!" she cried out weakly, her eyes wide and searching.
