has it been that long?

He couldn't help but smile as he heard the familiar call ring out across his land. Pulling himself to his paws he took one last look at his wife, lingering at her growing form. Thankfully she had started to put on weight, but he had kept a very close eye on her. Motif had been more than capable of watching over the pack, even in her new... state. He had to swallow hard, he was still rather unsure what to feel about all of it. He had no idea that his own wife was also carrying children, even though it was not her season. Apparently there was something int he Abavenian water that made all the ladies go into heat early... Clearing his mind, he bent down to press a lasting kiss upon her brow before exiting the den, looking over his shoulder one last time as he smiled at her. His dear Wren, oh how he loved her so.

Trotting over to Crucifix he dipped his head, plopping down on the chilly earth in front of him. "Hey Cru, long time no see. How is Solstice?" He asked. He had heard nothing about the capture of Sibelle, the fight for her and the heavy feelings that rested between the two pack. His own neck and chest was still sore from his fight with Cat, but with her it had been a spar, not a fight or claim. It had been too long since he talked with him, at least a few season. He didn't even know that the man was a father! It really had been that long.
