The forest was bright, brighter than he preferred. And the snow sparkled and shown. It burned his eyes. Dempsey's dark grey coat stood out like a sore thumb against the white of the forest, but the black bark of the trees allowed for significant coverage. While he walked he allowed his mind to just go blank of everything except his surroundings. He didn't want to think about his father or the mother he never knew. It just made him bitter and cold, and he could not afford to be any colder in this landscape. He was glad he was alone to wander these desolate woods. Another soul to bother his very existence was the last thing he wanted. Well, unless it was a female existence. He could deal with some mindless activity to stimulate his body and stop this endless train of thoughts.

As that sweet, sweet idea flashed through his head he caught a whiff of something on the wind. The light breeze picked up again after it had changed directions, and it told him more about what he had suspected. There was a femmae lurking about. A smile did not grace his lips at the satisfaction of his thoughts coming to fruition, rather his nose just twitched a little and one eyebrow raised. Changing his route he headed in the direction of this new sent. He didn't plan to talk too much to this female. No, why would he do that? What a pointless activity indeed. Dempsey knew he didn't have to talk overly much to get what he wanted. His big muscular frame was proof of that.

ooc: soooooo sorry for taking so long to reply x_x Just so everyone is clear, this is set like a while before she gives birth. So clearly pregers, but not like gigantic or anything lolz

The north was her land. It was where she felt the most comfortable with her thick coat of ivory fur that blended in perfectly with her surroundings. The cool air felt refreshing blowing through her coat. She stopped in her tracks, a calm smile drifting across her muzzle as she closed her eyes to enjoy the breeze. The assassin's ears perked up as she caught a scent on the breeze, the scent of a male. She didn't detect the scent of a pack on him, at least not from this distance, so she didn't see any harm in going to investigate. Her pregnancy had done nothing to slow her down. She refused. She was going to travel, hunt, and socialize for as long as she could till absolutely couldn't. Besides, she should keep her skills of "playing nice" sharp, right?

With that in mind, she turned and padded toward the scent, her violet gaze scanning the trees. Her paw steps were quiet, giving only the softest crunch in the snow as she padded along. The silent movements she was used to making were getting harder and harder as her sides swelled with her growing pups, but she had taken it as a challenge and had adapted to keep her steps at the very least quiet just out of principle. She followed the scent trail till she finally laid eyes on the brute, her eyebrows raising slightly in surprise. He was a large wolf, covered in various shades of gray, white, and black, the colors spread across his well shaped body. He was quite handsome in her eyes, not that she cared much. That wasn't exactly the top of her priority list, though it was a perk.

She let a soft, gentle smile spread across her muzzle as she padded up to him, dipping her head in greeting. "Hello there," she said, her voice naturally sweet and kind. She had never had to try to alter the tone or cadence of her words, they did the work for her. She sank onto her haunches several feet from him with a sigh, only half pretending that the trip to him had tired her out. She was a little tired, but not near as much as she was putting on. It was all fun and games today, not harm was intended for him, this was all purely for her enjoyment and training. "You don't mind keeping me company for a little bit while I rest, do you? I'm Alena." She spoke with a smile, her wide, violet gaze watching him curiously.

Dempsey's gaze widened just a tad as the femmae came into view. She was beautiful and as white as the snow beneath his feet. Her fur looked so soft, soft enough to snuggle into and stay there for a long night. What he hadn't expected her to be though was pregnant. He eyes her large stomach appreciatively. Maybe some day he would sire his own children, though he doubted it. Keeping relationships was too much work and he really didn't care enough to manage one.

Her soft timbers were pleasant, but he liked a female with a little more spice to be honest. He really shouldn't even be thinking about her 'spice' though. She was pregnant after all, meaning she had a man to run home to. And even if she didn't he couldn't ravage her in her current position. That would just be cruel. Dempsey nodded when he asked her to stay and keep her company. Why not? He really had no where to be at the current time.


The pretty wolf had plopped down into the snow and lay there before him. He was amazed at her trusting attitude, or her stupidity. He really couldn't decide on which term he liked better at the moment. Probably stupidity. The grey brute raised an eyebrow at her, questioning her actions. Afraid to test her pregnant hormones too much he sat on his haunches and and zipped his lips."The name is Dempsey, dear." His voice was low and sensual as always. If he sang, which he didn't, he would be a base for sure.


"Congratulations by the way darling. He must be one proud future father." Dempsey looked away from her then, thoroughly bored out of his mind. He yawned before looking back to her. The platinum of his eyes was quite stunning, but of course he always forgot that.

"Some wolves need to learn that things aren't always what they seem," she thought as he sat down in front of her, greeting her with his name, the look in his silver gaze telling her plenty. He thought she was an idiot, that was clear. "Oh, it's all part of the game, don't you know?" She smiled sweetly, hiding her thoughts. He was a fun play thing. Certainly one of the most handsome brutes she had come across, with his strong features, catching gaze, and rumbling voice. Maybe he could be some fun to play with again sometime, after she had her pups.

His congratulations and comment on their "father" made Alena's mind spark up an idea. She wondered what his opinion on pups was... even if they weren't his. This was going to be very interesting if her thoughts became reality. Alena turned her violet gaze away from his, looking down at the ground to hide the shame that she only had to partially manufacture. She wasn't so much ashamed of the deed itself, but of where it left her. Pregnant and alone. "Yeah, some 'father' he is," she mumbled, her ears folding back and still refusing to meet Dempsey's gaze. "It was a mistake. A one night stand and now here I am. I just hate that they're going to grow up without a father, you know? I guess maybe their father will show up every once in awhile, but he has his own mate now. Some little russet and black and ivory thing." She shrugged, staring at her forepaws as they kneaded the ground. "I pretty much grew up on my own. Surely one parent is better than none, right?"

The ivory assassin finally pulled her violet gaze up to the shining platinum of his, wondering what this man would say. It was a far fetched idea she had, but sometimes it was necessary to live in the moment. He was handsome and if, by some chance, she would want to have more children, legitimate children, he would father beautiful ones she was sure. If he went along with her idea, perhaps he would grow to like her and want the same thing she did. Hell, maybe she would even grow to like him. Crazier things had happened.

Dempsey almost didn't listen to the ivory female when she started to talk again, but when she mentioned that her pups would have no father his mouth dropped slightly. She had just found his emotional soft spot. He prayed to God no one ever found his physical one, though Aspasia may be coming close. As a pup, Dempsey's father had been cruel and demanding, and he had not gotten any better as the brute had matured.

He had always felt as if his father had not wanted him and that he was worthless and a piece of dirt. That was one reason he looked to female comfort more often than most wolves. He knew in that moment that they appreciated him for something he was good at. It was a sad comparison to be sure, but they never did turn him away or tell him they disapproved so how bad could it be?



His mind flashed forward a little to seeing these little pups growing up fatherless. He imagined the boys trying to figure out why they weren't good enough, and the girls not understand anything about the wills of men and how to protect themselves from idiots like himself. A shudder ran down his spin. Finally, he brought his platinum eyes back up to Alena. He scowled at her for a minute. Why would she ever go about bringing pups into this world with no father?


But then his eyes softened and he smiled a bit at her. The heat was unbearable he had heard. He had even helped out a few females in that position before, but usually he used his mouth if he wanted to refrain from having pups with the femmae. This brute must have just been that big of an idiot. So far he had nothing to do, besides Aspasia, and having a family to look after so the pups didn't have his emotional scares wouldn't be that bad would it?


"My heart goes out to your family Alena," Heart? What heart? "I have no home right now, no goals in life at the moment, and would like to make you an offer. If you agree to satisfy my needs, whether that be food or primal. I will help you raise your pups and act as a father figure to them." He knew it was low to ask such a thing from a pregnant woman, but Dempsey wanted something out of this deal after all. Plus he had to admit that she was pretty.

It seemed that Alena didn't even have to voice her idea or convince him of it. Dempsey did that on his own. She listened to his offer with interest. It seemed like a fair, if not perfect, deal to her. Her pups got their father figure and in return all she had to provide for him was herself? There was no downside it seemed. It did mean that she might have more pups in the future, but was that really so bad? Being pregnant had not been as awful as she had imagined and in a weird way she was actually looking forward to meeting the pups that were slowly growing inside her.

Alena was curious, however, what would make a brute offer something like this when he had only just met her. She knew she was a good actress, but there had to be something more behind it. A brute wouldn't simply offer to tie himself down, more or less, to a fea having only just met her. Really all he knew about her was her name and the fact that she's pregnant thanks to a one time fling. Curiosity showed in her eyes as she asked, "Really? I mean, I like the idea of it, but you hardly know me and I hardly know you. What would make you want to help a complete stranger like this?"

Why? Well that was a very good question for the pretty femmae to ask. Dempsey hated relationships. He hated the time and effort associated with them. So why in the world would he wish to bury himself in responsibility in this way? His relationship with the mother would be insignificant of course. If he was to be a father figure to the pups the mother had to come with the equation, and to be honest who wouldn't want to play father with this pretty wolfess? Fathers got to make love to mothers whenever they wanted.

Alena's pups were his real concern. He hated having to feel that he needed to live up to his father's abusive standards every day of his life, and he did not wish that on anyone. To have a father that wasn't there at all, to wonder what you had down wrong before your life even began, he could not imagine that. Of course, this was the real reason he would consent to be tied down for at least a year.


However, Dempsey wasn't sure he wanted to reveal all of this to the female. No, he was quite certain he didn't. He was an assassin after all, and no one needed to know his weaknesses. He licked his lips before he set about answering her question. Padding towards her then, he looked down at her from his standing position, "Know that I have my reasons, and that they pose no ill intent to you or your pups," Walking around behind her, he trailed his nose along her spine. Knowing that was as far as he really should go with a pregnant woman; he stopped. Though Dempsey knew if she asked for more he would have no problem obliging her. Platinum eyes scanned every bit of her boddess from where he stood at her tail. "Being able to ravage a beauty such as yourself anytime I wish is just a bonus, my dear."

The pale assassin watched with curious eyes as the brute stood and made his way closer to her, her head tipped back to meet his gaze as he stood over her. She smirked and replied, "Fair enough." They would both have their secrets then. As long as he kept true to his word about meaning no ill intent to her pups then she could live with him having his reasons... for now.

Her violet eyes slid closed and her ears flicked with surprise as the brute trailed his muzzle down her spine. She supposed a more sensible fea would shy away from his touch, deny his advances. She wasn't exactly a sensible fea, however. Clearly she wasn't, considering the situation she was in. A grin flickered across her muzzle as she glanced back at him, her gaze holding an intrigued look at his words. "I'd be careful if I were you, my dear Dempsey. You might get more than you bargained for," she replied with a soft chuckle. She teasingly flicked his muzzle with her tail as she stood and turned to face him once more. It was almost a shame that she was pregnant. Alena would take him up on his temptations otherwise. Oh well, all in good time.

"Alright, I'll take you up on your offer to help raise my pups. The only issue will be that I am a member of Amenti and I don't plan on leaving anytime soon. Will that be a problem for you? I won't force you to join if you don't wish to, but if you'd like to join us, even just temporarily, I'd be happy to accept you as a member." With her tail swaying gently behind her, she explained, "You'd probably like it there. Not many rules, all you have to do is not start trouble with the packs we're allied with and try to help out the pack when you can, but you'll be helping me so that's pretty much already fulfilled." She paused, brushing her muzzle temptingly against his with a smirk. "What do you think?"

Alena flicked her tail across his face and he breathed her in. Oh yes, it would be nice not to have to search to calm his needs. She hoped she was ready to birth soon. One so he could meet his new charges, but also so he could get a piece of this lovely she-wolf.

Patiently he listened to her speak. He didn't think he'd mind joining her pack, temporarily at least. He would no longer be in danger of being caught on someone else's hunting grounds or mating with some female who wandered off from her man. No, this way he would know exactly what was up in his world at all times. Alena brushed her muzzle up against his own and he smirked. He was definitely going to like her. "I think it would be best if I joined your pack temporarily dear."


Dempsey winked a platinum eye at her before moving forward so he could nipple up her cheek during her ear. "And if you ever want to give me more than I bargained for, love," He paused to let out a breathy moan in her ear, just to let her know what exactly he was thinking, "I'll take you." He let out a deep throaty chuckle for adding, "All of you." Pulling her ear into his mouth then he sucked on it gently. The grey wolf was certain she had no idea what she was getting herself into. Unfortunately, he was just as oblivious himself.

Alena was happy to hear that her new plaything wanted to join her pack, even temporarily. Of course, "temporary" could mean any length of time, from one year to several, but she didn't voice these thoughts. She would let him think he was free to leave when he pleased, even if she didn't agree.

The ivory assassin watched Dempsey with interest as he winked and approached her, tempting her with nibbles along her cheek. His words pulled a grin to her lips and a soft, pleased rumble sounded in her chest at his words and the feeling of his mouth on her ear. Turning the temptations back on the brute, Alena nipped along the edge of his law line and placed light kisses along his throat. "And who's to say that isn't exactly what I wanted?" she whispered into his ear with a smirk.

She chuckled softly and pulled back from him to see his platinum gaze as she returned his wink. She couldn't wait for the day that these pups were out of the way and she could act on her teasing. For now, she simply turned back toward home, looking over her shoulder at him as she said, "Welcome to Amenti, Dempsey. I hope to see you there soon." With a final flick of her tail she trotted off back toward the Red Forest to wait out the rest of her pregnancy. With any luck it wouldn't be too long before she saw her handsome plaything again.
