Her heart squeezed at the finality in his voice and Pied realized she was not prepared to take such decisive action just yet, despite her frantic need for clarity. "I'll head out to see her tomorrow. Would you like to come or do you want to leave it to me?" she asked. By the sound of it, he wanted to accompany her and she certainly wouldn't mind him there, though she wasn't sure. "Maybe we can kill two birds with one stone: we can talk to Robur while we're there." After all, if they were going to consider relocating to the plateau, they needed to mend that rift, didn't they? Pied didn't want Kisu and Rob to have the strained relationship that she herself shared with Jinx.

Another worry wriggled its way to the forefront of her mind. "What if it happens sooner, though? I mean, I could wake up tomorrow and that could be it; it could be time. We need to decide if we'd still go through with it and what we'd do if we did. I'm not taking any chances. We don't know where Akhlut stands on our breeding right now and I am not going to risk him hurting one of us or our pups," Pied said emphatically, a sharp growl suddenly bursting through her teeth at the thought of him harming their young.
