Ouroboros Spine when I'm dead and gone

hoping for @Raindrop

Easy had waited until she was sure that she'd conceived, not wanting to answer any questions about her status with awkward uncertainty. Once her belly began to swell, however, she knew that it had taken, and she'd excelled at each and every pregnancy before.

Carefree and unburdened, Easy came to the borders of her nephew's home pack — his village, as they called it — and howled to announce her presence.

She was gratified to find Valiant's scent as she sniffed around the outskirts of the pack. He seemed healthier than the last time they'd seen each other, and she was grateful for that fact. He was growing old as well, only a year or two behind her, and she worried for his emotional health most especially. But, catching the scent of another pregnant (and familiar) female nearby, she began to suspect that something wonderful had happened.

Whoever came to greet Easy Morningside, they would find her with an impish smile on her gracefully aging face.
