Broken Antler Fen Home Once Again

The contact felt nice, for physical bonds had been ruined for her beside her daughter. For so long, she wouldn't LET anyone touch her, even her own sister or parents. And after she left to raise Brandy on her own, there was nobody else to be in contact with unless she was fighting. 
Aduin seemed further surprised at this news, and she shook her head with a heavy sigh. Her lemon eyes glared down at her heavily scarred paws and mumbled to herself,
          "I swear, sometime's I would swear I hadn't raised that damn girl."
She turned her gaze back to him, softening and giving a bitter smile.
                "The scars, across her eye yes, are of my doing. Just as I'm the reason she has no survivng siblings."
Ever so slightly, the tawny woman began to tremble, and she was unable to keep his gaze; flicking them back to her paws in shame, shoulders bowing slightly as if a great weight sat upon them.
                         "One of the puppies, i-it looked like... Like h-him. I blacked out, and by the time I came to she was the only one alive, having fallen out of the nest."
She left the gorey memory to herself, unable to share that even if she thought someone would want to hear. The boy was jumpy enough without having that only memory of his mate's siblings.
