Horizon Ridge Dusky Dawn and Furry Paws

ooc: for the sake of the plot I hope we can do this in two or three quick rounds.

It didn't take long for the most part of their small pack arrive to the place. Bjorn, Kennedy and Gavriil - all of the people she respected and because of whom they were still thriving here. She might not have learned to trust them fully yet and still she didn't want to make a decision without hearing them out first. Whether Thistle would be allowed to keep the children or not would affect them all. Pump waited a little more, expecting to see Nuka too, but the she-wolf made no appearance.

"A mere moments ago I was put in a very curious situation," Pump began and lied down. "You see, Thistle here," she beckoned to the young girl, who stood not far from her, "told me... that she was expecting." Her thoughtful gaze lingered at the girl and then turned to briefly meet each of the male's eyes. "And judging by your expressions none of you is to blame for that," this was added with a light touch of good humor.

"In a regular pack the fate of her children would be certain," she went on. "Children, who do not share the alpha bloodline, are killed - and this has been my solid belief all my life," Pump paused wanting to see if anyone had anything to add here, because this rule with veryh few exceptions was the same everywhere. "However, Horizon ridge is not a regular pack - we are not related to each other and still we have managed to survive so far," she had a little worry about Kennedy though, since he still looked very bad.

"The decision is only mine to make, however, I think it is only fair to hear you out first," Pump addressTed them all. "If you were in my place, what your decision would be and why?" she asked them and then turned to the young girl: "Thistle, this applies to you too."
