Horizon Ridge A Flicker in the Wind

Kisu thought maybe little Virtúte-Starbuck offspring would be a perfect name, even if it was slightly a mouthful. He wanted to keep his father's name going down the line, but also wanted Pied's family name to show on whatever uniqueness they would claim from their mother. He smiled at the thought of pups running around and play-fighting come early spring.

When she announced she must leave and return to her packmate, Kisu was saddened but understood. She would return to him and Horizon Ridge soon, joining the pack he now belonged to for him. He stood and licked her goodbye, and went to lie in the middle of the beach to daydream of him and Pied having their own thriving pack someday.
