Broken Antler Fen She loves pop songs, and dancing, and bad trash TV

Eljay didn't have worries like Maia's when it came to the conception; he'd never been faced with anyone that wanted pups but couldn't have them. Not that he knew of, anyway. His view was therefore innocent and open and he did not think of any of the potential pitfalls on the way before pups were even here. As far as he was aware, it started to get dangerous in the later stages of pregnancy and then the birth; not right now.

He was out scouting out one of the herds of deer of the Fen when he heard Maia's voice not far off. Presuming she was meeting with someone he initially decided to leave her to herself and her friend, but then as he turned away from her Eljay suddenly got an itch in his paws and could not help but turn around towards Maia again. With a spring in his step he headed her way, and as he approached Eljay smiled softly at her. She wasn't showing any signs of pregnancy yet, but that was okay, it could take a while.

To his surprise no one was there with her. Eljay asked gently, Telling a story to the forest elves? as he approached and nuzzled her cheek, unaware of how right he almost was.
