Whitefish River And that's all you need to know

She chuckled softly, nodding in agreement. Four was a lot, and she knew things would only become more challenging as they grew. She was about to say more about the children, but the mention of their father made her pause. Guilt swelled in her chest as it always did when she thought about Charon and what she had done to the wolves of Moonspear. She loved her kids, so she could never say she wished it hadn't happened, but she wasn't sure she could ever forgive herself for the way things had gone. How could she? What she had done was awful and wrong and went against everything she believed. Hopefully now that she was out of their lives, things had been able to return to some kind of normal for her former packmates. 

She realized she hadn't answered him yet, and the healer drew in a deep breath. um, no, she finally said. He lives somewhere else...this wasn't supposed to happen... Speedy tried her best to keep her body soft and comforting for Verx despite the uncomfortable topic. She didn't blame him for asking; it was kind of a logical question even with the hint of a hidden motive behind his words. She wasn't exactly available, though, and once he learned the truth, she was sure he would feel differently anyway. He was mated already, and I really made a mess of things. She fell silent again, mind turning with everything that had happened. Fear mixed with the guilt as she wondered when it all would catch up to her. One thing was for sure: she would die before she let any of it touch her children.
