The end of the summer was coming, she could feel it. She also could hardly wait for the relief she'd feel with the change of the season, she had been in heat for far too long. This had to have been the longest summer of her life, somehow she'd gotten away with keeping herself from temptation. Though right now she felt more conflicted than she ever had. Before her lay the queen anne's lace and juniper berries, the contraceptives that Cascade had pointed her towards. She'd gathered them, at first just to have in her stores just in case. Then as the days went on and she looked at them day by day the more the idea of taking them appealed to her. Talking to Cascade hadn't helped her any in the nervousness she felt about reproduction, especially if she was with Valentine. She knew the woman wasn't lying, Motif might have died because the pups she'd given birth to were so large. Had she not been there for her... She'd put her paws over her eyes as she sighed heavily. She wasn't ready until she ate these herbs, getting pregnant.. that was exactly the last thing she needed, especially with such a potentially dangerous outcome. She could wait, why even take the chance right? It really couldn't be that great.. and she'd made it this long and was just fine without. Rhythm would roll back onto her back and look up at the darkening sky. The stars were beginning to come out, a glittering blanket that would replace the bright orange and pinks in the sky. She'd sigh heavily again, pulling her paws to her chest as her tail beat at the boulder beneath her. Life was so complicated, and it seemed to just keep getting more and more confusing. For the first time in a long time she would wish that she were back home in Ahlone. Back when she and her siblings were only yearlings. Everything was so much simpler then, they'd all been so innocent and naive then. They had no reason to be upset at one another. She'd find herself huffing. She just wanted her sister, she could talk to Motif about all of this. Rhythm really wanted to talk this over with her almost-twin, but... the last time she'd seen Motif the meeting hadn't gone too well. The girl would lean back, closing her eyes tightly as she wished her sister beside her as hard as she could. All the while knowing full well Motif wasn't going to come anywhere near Imperium. |
