Before It All Changed

Nalyda could hear her mate explain how he wished to have another litter of pups. The look of happiness appeared upon the dame's maw, however, she was also pained. She knew that there was something wrong with her, and, the thought of having another litter also terrified her. What if the pup's died due to her illness? What if she did not see them grow up or anything else of that nature? Sadness was hidden by a look of satisfaction as she nodded her head in approval. Perhaps the pups would be good to have if she were not to be around much anymore, so that Kar was occupied and had something to remember her by if her time came around.

"I believe that that would be a good idea," she smiled, nudging him in a tender and happy fashion, tail swaying from side to side in glee. Despite the pain that coursed throughout her form, she would smile and act as normal as she could to try and keep everything normal, and, also, to not terrify the male who she loved so much.
