Noctisardor Bypass What a wonder life is

When Gwen heard the howl summoning both her and Mawk, she already guessed what it might be about. And while normally she would have said yes straight away, since both members had been here long enough and were certainly worthy of it, she was slightly more hesitant after hearing about Noor's unexpected encounter. Of course, she might not be pregnant, but it was very likely and having two litters might put a strain on the pack.

But.... they could do it, right?

"Mawk, Cebra," she greeted as she approached the pair finally. The Empress gave them both a look before she understood what they did indeed seek. Plus, the scent from Illecebra was hardly insufficient. "I know what you want, and before I say anything there is a few things to point out." she did not waste time. "Of course, as the father, Mawk, you must be willing to put in extra effort to care for the young." The woman then went on to explain about Noor.

"Now, she probably doesn't wish for me to tell you, but since you are seeking permission to breed you are allowed to recieve this news. Noor was forced to breed a little bit ago," there was clear anger in her voice as she spoke, but Gwen inhaled deeply before continuing much more calmly. "And she may be pregnant. This means more work, but I believe we can do it. If, that is, you are still up to it."

"Yes, I give you my permission, as Empress, to breed. But promise me that you will still pull your weight until you begin to feel the effects of pregnancy. Then, Cebra, you must rest. Feel free to dig your whelping den when the due date draws near. Now, I give you my congratulations on the upcoming pregnancy if you do still wish to go through with it." she said before turning away. "I'm sorry that this was brief, but I believe Mawk is having a hard time controlling himself." A chuckle escaped her muzzle and she padded away with a flick of her tail.
