Everything was spinning. She closed her eyes and groaned. Why was this heat so unforgiving. She could feel the distress her pups were feeling as they rolled over and over inside her. It was uncomfortable and her agitation was growing as the taste of ashes and blood stuck in her mouth. His words were so distant. What had he said? She looked at him with confusion. Who was he again? God had it come to that? Was she back to that horrible place where faces meant nothing and all that mattered was the blood. Blood would tell her whom she couldn?t recognize and remind her that they truly were familiar. She pawed at her head and took in a steady breath. She knew him, something told her so, but she was so confused. The damned heat was toying with her sanity, or rather what little she had.

?What did you say?? she asked, her voice was horse and scratchy. Her eyes felt so heavy. Sleep sounded like a good idea. Something told her no. She had to get up and leave. Find water and cool herself down. Hadn?t the stranger told her that they should go? She struggled to remember. He had said.. Said they needed to find water. Yes, that sounded right. She struggled to get to her feet. The weight of her pups seemed so heavy. She stretched her body as she stood on shaking legs. She needed to get moving. Why was he coming? Who was he? The light wind brought no mercy from the heat but brought with it his smell. She closed her eyes and pulled it deep into her lungs. oh, he was Kaios, her mate. She remembered now.

?The head is warping my mind. I forget and then remember and then forget again. We need to go. Champion can watch the pack while we leave.? Her voice sounded so tired. Like she was working over time and still she had things to do. Her tail flicked behind her as she looked at him thoughtfully. ?How are you fairing?? she questioned, she cared about his well being. He wasn?t allowed to go drop dead on her. No, she would wake him from the grave and bring him back. He was her first mate and this was her first liter. That meant something to her even if it didn?t mean anything to him.
