Stepping into the sunlight

Walk | Talk | Think Rune knew the day was coming. He could feel it in the way the den started to feel more cramped with the children's incessant movements and rambunctious behavior, things that were best suited for a big wide world beyond the confinement of a place to rest and sleep. Of course, his natural protective nature made him willing to put up with becoming an indoor jungle gym and the big bad monster of his children's games so long as it meant they were safe and contained, but he had seen it in Alamea's face. They were going to be leaving the den soon to begin their first adventures beyond. He had known this day would be it from conversations the night before with his little mate in the quiet of the den after the pups had fallen asleep, and when he had risen before them all he had taken care to ensure that the space outside the den would be suitable for them. The rest of the pack had been told, the older children included, and as he made his way back to the densite, ready for them to come out into the wide world beyond their earthen walls, he spotted Alamea already outside and both pups following on her heels. The grey Guardian's gaze softened as he watched them both, Icarius sticking like a burr to Alamea's leg before building bravery to leave her side and Sarai voicing, as always, her thoughts on the situation in her high voice. They were strong and wonderful, perfect additions to his family. He cast a quick glance over his shoulder, wondering if any of the older children had decided to follow closely to him, and then approached the white wolf and pups silently, watching the little bundles of energy as he strode over to his mate with just a teeny smile curving one side of his mouth. |
