Stone Circle Children of the Standing Stones

@Steph @Ezra @Clary. Bit of pp, tell me if you want it changed. Other pack members can make a cameo but Valette wouldn't allow anyone inside of the den.

Valette had a strange feeling. She felt a bit restless and couldn't find a right position. She was glad for the soft bedding that comforted her positions. Yet, tonight something was off. She had a hazy sleep all through the early evening. After midnight the female felt an intense pain going through her abdomen. She let out a soft wine. She instantly nosed over her belly. What if something was wrong? She wanted to panic but her instinct didn't really tell her that something was badly wrong.

Valette shifted to her side and groaned. This was no fun anymore. She felt too large. Another wave of pain moved through her body. She gritted her teeth. Her instinct told her to be quiet. She had the feeling her babies were coming. A groan was followed by a rush of fluids. Valette was a bit surprised by it but couldn't focus on it too much as another contraction agonized her. Automatically she started to push. It hurt. She wished Steady was here to comfort her.

However, the female was determined to put all her babies in this world. So she tried to think away the pain. It was close to impossible. She had to push hard before she birthed the first pup. She could hear it! It was alive. It was dark in color like her, and Steady. Valette moved to inspect the little thing. It didn't feel little before though, but now it looked so tiny. The young mother was in love. She started licking the pup clean and noticed it was a little female. But she was reminded of Steady.

Valette licked her clean. Secretly, she already given her a name, Steph, after Steady. She nosed the little girl after she was all clean. The pain reminded her that more were coming but now it was a good reminder she wanted many more of these adorable tiny babies. She lied down again. Valette nudged the first born closer to her belly. Drink little one, she thought. The pain continued. She was far more eager to push now.

This one felt larger but she reminded herself that soon the pup would look really tiny. She let out a groan, pushing hard. She was met with a loud voice. Valette could only smile though. She eagerly picked the gray pup and started to clean her second newborn. She hummed softly, though that hum was interrupted by another contraction. Valette wanted to push but she also wanted to spend quality time with her son. She had a son and a daughter. How perfect.

Another contraction forced her to place Ezra, named after Ezekiel's suggestion, next to his dark sister. They could keep each other warm while they would fill their bellies with warm milk. Valette had to push once more. Now, she was getting used to the feeling. The idea of meeting another puppy made the pain diminish. With one final push, the last one was born. Valette grabbed the third pup and started to lick her dry. Trying to make them feel as welcome as she could. It was another girl. Also, gray like her biological father.

She placed her by another teat after licking her clean, thoroughly. Valette grunted as she felt another contraction. She puffed. She was starting to feel extremely tired. She felt something being birthed but there were no sounds. She was worried as she looked behind her. But it was no pup it was a blood mass. Her ears flattened. Valette wasn't sure if it was normal but she felt better without those contractions. The mother couldn't keep her eyes off her newborns. She curled more around them to keep them warm and offered them licks and kisses. Valette was so happy. Her tail couldn't stop thumping against the ground.
