Golden Glade Shame On You

Sorry this took so long Shannon but this thread is backdated... Well.... A long freaking time. xD Before he leaves and after mating with Heartha.

Guiltridden and upset, Alder slunk his way towards his own tunnel, the one he shared with his wife. After coming back from the accidential affair days ago, he'd found the den empty. While he'd been fully ready to admit it right then and there, Aspen hadn't been in the nest... So he cleaned Heartha's scent from him and went on as normal as possible the next few days. 

The King couldn't take it though - his wife meant the entire world to him, and never once had he wanted her hurt her.  It would, of course: he'd cheated on Aspen and didn't tell her right away, plus there was always the chance that both of the women were pregnant. Part of Alder hoped so - no matter the mother, he would adore his children - but another part dearly wished he could just pretend he'd never left the borders and found Heartha that night. 

Poking his head and shoulders into their den, Alder's one blue eye scanned for @Aspen with a whimper of sorrow.
