Moonspear sojourn

When Valette had had hers, Nikai had fleetingly thought that maybe it would've been nice to have children with Alya; but when the season passed so had his desires. It was easier when hormones weren't that present, he supposed, and Nikai thought it might just be good enough to see those of others grow up. Valette's, he thought, but when it came down to it he was in a new pack with new wolves, and the only pups that the pack had reared that year were the new Alpha pair's; Hydra and Dirge's. He hadn't seen them yet, though when they were a bit older -- they were getting there, he reckoned -- Nikai hoped he could help teach them a thing or two about life. Moonspear and Alya's family in general seemed very focused on being strong, and Nikai hoped he could teach them that kindness and being gentle ain't bad qualities either.

Nikai was lounging in the remnants of the sun on the lower slopes of the mountain, just outside the forest near the borders. He was enjoying the warmth a bit longer until it would truly turn autumn. He heard Alya's call to her sister, but didn't expect to see her coming into view soon after; the call hadn't encompassed him, after all. Was it a coincidence, or was he included in meeting with her sister too?
