It was all worth it - Amalia - June 13, 2025
@Lyric Redhawk @Valiant Wasn't sure if you had made up for Carolina yet <3 so grabbed one of your other wolves. @Killdeer @Towhee
Amalia woke up and she felt worse than she had in sometime. Her stomach rolled like it was the ocean itself. And pain radiated up from her hips to her shoulders and down again. She could barely move. She panted and shifted. Pain growing tighter and quicker each time.
It was not a good feeling. And Amalia was scared to death. She had never felt such rip roaring pain, as if she were being separated into two halves her own self. Her eyes watered and she wanted to scream. She wished so strongly for her mother or her brother, but none of them were here.
The only thing that seemed to help was pacing. And even that was only a temporary relief. Suddenly the pain radiated and she literally felt her muscles contracting. She lucky enough squatted it time. And yelped as the first child came into the world. Instinct prevailed now, though she did look for Towhee or Killer knowing they were near, but not where.
She pulled the tiny thing closer to her and licked it's face, it didn't seem to be breathing and she was panicking, but as soon as she swiped her tongue along it's nose and mouth, it let out a whimper and a breath and she felt her own heart slow. She was much lighter than Amalia had ever been or seen. Clearly taking after her father. She was so tiny. Amalia couldn't believe how small she was. But she settled to her side even though the pain ripped through her still and tucked the little girl into her underside.
Hello Carolina
She was swimming in a moment of bliss, the pain dissipating for a hot minute. Only to return sharper and harder. She didn't want to dislodge the little girl, but she was unsure what to do. She gently shifted and found the pain, caught on and chased it. And finally it was over and another little one was born. Amalia bent to pull this one forward. A little boy dark like she and her brother. Like Towhee. Hearty and Hale, but still so small. She couldn't get over hoe small they were. She was tight in the chest until he too took his first breath and it eased.
Hello Lyric.She whispered to her son. And then As she tucked him into her stomach, her vision grew blurry and she had to settle her head. It quickly passed. But gosh she felt so weak and tired.
Please let Killer, the pups and Towhee post first, then we will open it up for others.

If Killdeer hadn't stationed himself close by the whelping den, he might have missed it altogether. As it was, Amalia's first yelp summoned him quickly, and although he stayed at a respectful distance from the event, he could still hear and smell it.
One child, he thought, with a smile. Then after a while, another, he assumed, judging by the sounds.
Once things had quieted in the den, he approached slowly and quietly.
Hey, 'Mal,Killdeer murmured, nose barely piercing the threshhold of his family's little home.
Are you all okay? What can I do?
He had not been around for Sialuk giving birth. He began to register the sight of his mate and two wet, wriggling babes, and tears welled in his eyes, rolling freely down his cheeks.
RE: It was all worth it - Towhee - June 14, 2025
I remember when you were that small,Towhee remarked softly as she came to stand beside Killdeer. Nosing a tear from his cheek, she added,
Congrats… dad? Papa? Taataa? What’re we going with for this batch?
She probably wouldn’t catch his response, as her orange eyes flicked forward to peer at Amalia and the newborns. Towhee took a moment to assess the first-time mother—she looked exhausted but happy—before her attention lingered on each child.
Would it be dumb if I wanted them to call me GG?Towhee asked no one in particular as she sank to the ground.
Amalia could probably use some food or water, which Towhee would be happy to fetch. But the eldest Redhawk just wanted to sit here and savor her newest descendants for a few precious moments.

He came into the world like a settling storm, mouth opening to cry yet his body relaxed and comfortable.
Little Lyric had been born surrounded and coddled by love, but he wouldn't know it for some time. One day when eyes were open and ears were clear he would feel grateful, but for now he was left unaware. Maybe something told him he was safe even now as he rested against his mothers stomach, family and teats waiting for him to feed, and yet he held off with a quiet security and a knowing that they would not leave before he was ready.
