Swiftcurrent Creek Against my own advice

Arlette had noticed the change in behavior Arric first, before realizing it was her own scent that was changing too. Arlette couldn't help but feel young and giddy that he body was giving her another chance of having children. She had worried when Eshe and Sovereign went into heat and she hadn't yet.... So figured she might not go into heat. Yet, hers was simply later.

Arlette chuckled seeing her mate so torn. Honestly, she felt rather flattered by his demeanor. She knew he probably didn't like it but she kinda did. She wasn't going to torment him though. She would make sure to stay clear of the other males in the pack, just so to avoid conflict. Seeing that the pale woman then had little other options she decided to at least find Arric. It wasn't difficult. She was familiar with his scent and especially now her body was gearing up to the event his scent especially stood out.

Arlette trotted towards him, feeling a little more confident than she would usually carry herself. She greeted him with a quick snuggle and some affectionate nips against his jaw. "Not long now," she murmured happily.
