Frith knew that the pups would be here any day, he'd been expecting their arrival the whole last week. It seemed that instead of the end of Spring these babies wanted to wait until the first bits of summer came. He was recovered physically from the wounds sustained during the Raid upon his pack, but that hadn't helped his paranoia any. Now he wanted to jump at every breaking stick he heard. His nerves were much too frayed to go further than a few feet from the den that Novella was residing within. She was very quiet about the pain, and for a long time Frith didn't even realize what was happening within. He'd pace outside for a while before laying down, and then getting back up again. With his restlessness so insatiable he would eventually just slip into the den with Novella, right as she was going through a contraction. Ears would fall to his head as he slipped to her side and nuzzled at her scruff supportively. "You could have called for me." Though he was chastising her, the words were soft and loving. "It's about time they were ready."
