Moonspear you could turn my sorrow into song

Something woke her in the middle of the night: a nightmare. It clung to her like a film of cold sweat, her belly flip-flopping unpleasantly. Knowing she wouldn’t be able to get back to sleep anytime soon, Meerkat rose gingerly and stepped over her sleeping mate and son. She wouldn’t go far, just wander a little until this sick feeling in the pit of her stomach passed.

She hadn’t gone more than ten steps before something prompted her to turn around and look back at @Njord and Ray. Her ears swept softly forward to catch the sound of harsh breathing. She thought she saw her husband’s frame twitch. Meerkat immediately rushed back to him, breath warm against his earlobe as she tried to rouse him with gentle brushes of her tongue to his cheek.
