Blackfeather Woods Rapunzel escapes

Burke realized that he had more children with females that were not his mate than ones he had with his mate. "Maybe we can keep it for another time," he spoke to Malice, close to being at their den already. The male had been rather tired from his patrol, which was starting to become a more regular thing. Burke did not think it was because of his age, it was just .. something else.

Burke wanted to apologize, because he did not want her to feel bad. But he realized that there was nothing he could do about it, even if he would apologize then it would not help her further. The male let out a soft sigh and then entered his own den. He just hoped they would turn around eventually.
