Heart to heart

Hawkeye let out a gentle sigh. "Since Pied has returned, her. She was still a part of Bon Dye, and is part of the pack now. I've been the only permanent member, though." Hawkeye wondered if she and Pied would ever take journeys away from the packs, leaving their mates to tend to the pups. The black beauty smiled, confirming that she would speak to Pied about a trip once the pups were old enough and weened.

A large yawn stretched Hawkeye's mouth wide. "Well, I better head back. I'm sure Peregrine is wondering where I am, and I am pretty tired. I used to be able to go without much sleep. Now, I am always exhausted." She frowned at this statement, wondering if she'd always be tired from now on.
