Her moment of ecstasy was cut short by Alder's voice running against her fur. He was...mated? Honey could've assumed as such (and she knew, though chose not to speak on it) by the obvious scent trails of another in his fur. But hearing that he had other children made her feel less used and more so ashamed.

So am I a stepmother now? I guess this isn't the best situation to ask about the details but then again, it's the perfect one.

I won't, I-I have some questions to ask first. She cleared her throat and began her list of inquiries, How old are they, your other children? How many mothers have given you children, since I doubt that I'm your first affair. It took a lot of courage for Honey to force the harsh tone of her voice, and she quickly collected herself afterwards.
And...and you want me to be a secret? So our offspring will never know of their siblings? How much of a father are you planning on being? If Alder was planning on half-assing his job then Honey could do it all on her own, she was sure.
