Swiftcurrent Creek So I offered you my hand

Arlette jerked awake when Arric touched her. She shot her eyes at Arric, confused. She smelled blood. She was a little dazed and moved her nose closer to the source. She licked it. Whathappened? she muttered.

She blinked then. Just uncomfortable, she admitted. Arlette didn't want to complain too much though. However, she was not comfortable. The pups had also decided that they had far too little space and were battling for space. Arlette panted softly. Her stomach clearly very active with babies in there.

Arlette shifted again and planted herself against, or well, half on top of Arric spooning into him. Especially when she laid on her side it was clearly bulging to the side she was not laying on. They are so wild already, she mumbled.
