OOC- I was wondering, how do we all meet?
IC- Kapara woofed. Five healthy puppies could still be heard, suckling their first milk. She turned around and saw Zeke, her would-be-mate, except her father didn't much approve of him.
Zeke nudged her shoulder and took her away from the den.
"Are you ok with this?" he asked her.
Kapara cocked her head and twitched her tail. "What do you mean? I'm fine with Kanu having more puppies. It's a way of life."
Zeke shook his head. "No, I meant sitting the puppies. You won't be on the hunting team anymore, and we'll really miss you."
Kapara cocked her head to the other side. She knew he really meant he would miss not sharing the joy of running free with her again. She turned around and jogged off a bit, then stopped and waited for Zeke to catch up with her. "Don't worry, I really am fine. Once the pups grow up I will join you again, and then we will also have more pups on the hunt."
Just then Raw, the omega of the pack, walked between them, but kept moving. He was heading to the borders of the land to make a mark.
"Akalu won't be happy about that," Zeke said, speaking of the alpha.
"Don't worry," Raw said. "I'm going to squat."
Kapara nodded. "So you say."
Raw lifted his lips a little but kept walking.
Zeke lifted his eyes to Kapara. Kapara shook her head. "I know what you're thinking, and father would never let him sit the pups."
Zeke shook his fur. "Who said anything about sitting the pups until they grow up?"
Kapara lifted her nose. Out of all the wolves she was the one with the best scent.
"You smell something?" Zeke asked.
Kapara shook her head. "It's probably nothing." She had smelled the same strange scent before, and nothing had happened.
