Swiftcurrent Creek [m] Welcome to the world, not-so-little ones

Arlette wanted to sleep and rest. She knew she probably had some time until the next one came. She thought. She hoped. But nope, clearly the next one was very eager to arrive. Arlette winced as pain shot through her. It was nice to have Arric's support. She wasn't sure if she was able to get through all of this without his help. She would apologize to him later. He was really amazing as a dad already. She knew it but it was even more confirmed now.

Arlette inhaled. Don't be... sorry, she panted and glanced at him. She tried to soften her gaze. She noticed that he was working on the pup, a hint of ... gold?!? She couldn't spend too much of her attention on it though as she shifted more onto her side. Her nostrils flared as pain moved through her. She was so done with this pain! She wished to spend time and fuss over her little babies. She really was so surprised that one would forget this pain. How could she forget?! She would really have to consider for next time, if there was going to be a next time.

Arlette pushed again, giving realized that anger did help with the pushing. This pup went a little smoother. Still it was large. Arlette groaned. The noises coming from the den could spark some worry. She didn't have the easiest time. Still, she would do it again if it meant she could have these babies with Arric. With that on her mind she pushed again. She gathered her courage once more. With another cry she pushed and felt the third pup being born. @Juniper had arrived. Arlette sagged. Too tired. She didn't want to move. She hoped she was done. She had three last time.

She was completely worn out. The woman knew that her mate would look after the pup. She was glad for it. It perhaps also helped Arric with the feeling that he could help her. Arlette blinked not sure if she had passed out or not. She shifted and lifted her head to look. She angled her head a little. She had expected all the pups to be black. But they had a variety of color. A grey one too, though it looked different kind of grey. It reminded her of how Thyme had looked faded from Turmeric. She looked at Arric, hoping she was done, curious about the details though. She laid her head back down again. She could use some rest after this.
