Arlette was not sure what was weighing heavier on her; the pregnancy or her mother's wrath. It was probably the latter. Her stress levels were at an all-time high. She tried to avoid her mother and father. She couldn't handle the disappointment of her parents. The rumors would probably spread fast throughout the pack. Plus she couldn't help but be worried for what others would think of her. Clearly there was a stigma to getting pregnant out of wedlock she had been unaware of. It had been an accident however she was still judged as it was a conscious decision. It sucked.

She needed a distraction and since she promised Siarut that she would visit his family she decided it might be a good distraction. Plus, it might prepare her for what is in the future. She would probably give birth soon, she had several cramps already, extremely painful ones. Arlette figured she was due soon. She glanced at Kaito as they walked. He had really been her rock, her everything. He had comforted her though all her endless sobbing. His sweet soft-spoken words helped her through these days of hell. It was crazy how a place she had loved didn't feel like home anymore. The female realized that perhaps a place was not a home but a person. She looked at Kaito with some hope in her eyes. If she was with him, life wouldn't be so bad.

Arlette winced when she saw her mother before them. Oh no. She did not want to deal with her mother at the moment. She looked at Kaito to see if they would make room for the Matriarch. She was about to ask when Kaito told her to go. The tone of his voice, something was wrong. She frowned, then looking at her mother in confusion. Was there something between them she wasn't aware of? Suddenly his comforting warmth gone. What was Kaito going to do? She turned away obediently when she saw the cougar charging at her mother, and Kaito--- "KAITOOO!," she called out after him. She rushed after him. He could never fight a cougar alone! Arlette moved forward, not as quick as she liked, but she was still able to run.

Arlette let out a piercing cry when she saw her love jump between the cougar and her mother. She stumbled as a cramp immobilized her. She jumped up, adrenaline kicking in. She had to help him! She was not a fighter either, but she had to help. To see the male limp in the cougar's hold was not a sight she ever wanted to see. Stupid, they should have kept to themselves!! Arlette roared in anger. The emotions and stress from the last few days bubbling up: The unfair treatment, the disappointment, the fear, and worry. It was all fuel for one emotion. Anger. She didn't deserve this. She wasn't going to let that cougar take Kaito from her. She snarled as she charged towards the cougar. As she did she see Kaito being flung away.

Arlette watched how the bloodied jaw came towards her. The small wolf didn't stop her charge, a warcry came from her lips. The cougar was on her in seconds and the force of the cougar's weight slammed into her. Claws were upon the female and she felt those claws tear through her white pelt like a warm knife through butter. Pain shot through her neck and shoulder. Arlette tried to bite anything she could until she felt the hot breath of the cougar on her neck. It was followed by the clench teeth. A panicked yelp escaped her, as she felt her head pinned to the ground, forced to see Kaito slumped against a tree. She hoped that she had done at least some damage to the cougar.

Immense pain shot through her lower abdomen, briefly thinking the cat had pierced her there as well. She couldn't check as it was getting more difficult to breathe. Her backside did feel well, probably blood. She realized there was a good chance she would die. Tears sprung in her eyes as they turned back to Kaito. This was probably the last sight she was going to see.
