Heron Lake Plateau Waking young and feeling old

Thus far, she hadn't even noticed Colt's smell on her and even if she had she likely wouldn't have thought much of it — Ceara herself smelled like a lot of other wolves, sometimes strongly, so until someone came straight out and told her they were an item or she saw it herself (or there were any other probably obvious sign) she would remain........ blessedly oblivious.  

Because maybe Ceara really had meant it when she'd called Niamh pretty, but maybe it didn't matter now.  

You know, you're absolutely right.  Although with so many mouths to feed they often didn't have a choice, she always preferred fresh food when she could scrounge it up.  The kids're all somethin', right?  So much personality, and they're as big as my paw.  She rolled her shoulders.  Well, I can help you bring some down if you'd like.
