Moonspear [m] Cult Ritual, Line 3

Sialuk was awake, draping a paw across her, and Keen shivered at the feeling of gentle teeth in her fur. Her question was entirely unexpected — and it really was a switch, after the packs Keen had been in before. She'd been expected to isolate herself entirely, from everyone in her last pack, and the one before — well, the alpha there had not taken kindly to the perceived threat of unwanted children. So the last thing Keen expected was to be offered the opportunity to have children.
Too bad she didn't want it. No, She said, quiet but resolute. If I ever get married, maybe then. But right now, I'd like to stay with you, if that's alright. For as long as Sialuk would welcome her. She wasn't nervous anymore, now that she thought she knew what was going on here. Now she was just totally infatuated and likely to be insufferable about it for quite some time.
