Wheeling Gull Isle whispers sloth, through curls of smoke

The new litter of children were sudden to come into their family's lives. One moment they were not there and the next, they were, being carried into the den as though it were now their own, too. Being so very young, Malakai had first assumed they were their own siblings, birthed by mother all the same. How could he have known any better? Though with Malakai's growth, came his listening skills and his understanding of the words given. It wasn't until it was said that he realized something was different with these pups and had come from another land entirely. They had smelt different, surely. The words shared by the adults forced Kai put two and two together. Even now, as Heda speaks: "They will know you as brother."  

@Dinah was not alone in her thoughts. Like Dinah, he kept silent of them, though perhaps did less well in hiding his feelings then she. Even now, as Simeon and Judah made to comfort their little sibling, Kai only watched them with a hardened scowl. Malakai had been far too young to understand or even notice the wear and tear of his parents when they were born, nursing at their mother's side. Right when the young parents felt they were getting past the hard parts, double the pups was presented, forcing them to start all over again. 

When feeding, the competition was fierce. Whenever Kai would drink from their mother, he would now push and shove his younger siblings far harder then he had with his littermates- likely so only because he was larger and stronger now. However, he was far more likely to try and eat the meat his mother gave him then nurse. The younger children forced him into progressing to meat quicker, if only because he did not wish to dine at their side. 

After some long moments of hard staring at the insufferable screeching one of the pups was making, Kai gets up and exits the den for a walk along the beach.
