Morningside Cuesta Romeo & Juliet

Grayday was a bit giddy, to be honest. His life finally seemed to be in order, even though there were still things he would change. But he could deal with Sunny's distance - it wasn't as though he couldn't visit. And he could deal with the animosity between Sunny and Dawn. It wasn't ideal, but they were young, and they would (hopefully) have years yet to deal with the hurt between them. Lately, he'd gotten really good at focusing on the good things in his life, just like Khoe had said all those months ago.

Lately, he'd found that there was a lot to be happy about.

When Heartha called for him that day, he simply dropped down kisses on the heads of his babies and smushed his nose into @Khoe's cheek before heading off to see what was needed of him. His tail was waving in the air as he bounded toward Heartha, only to stand straight out as he caught a familiar scent on the breeze.

"Where's Spot?" he asked at once, circling around behind the woman and urging her further into the territory. "And what are you doing out here? I don't want rovers catchin' your scent, comin' to cause trouble on the borders..." His words were gruff and worried, but not unkind as he attempted to shepherd her back toward the safety of the Copse. He worried, briefly, that someone in the pack might try to mate with her - but Kieran was too young, and the rest of the pack were either women or infants.
