Shaundi
I collapsed against a pillar, groaning.
"Oh god ... no" I moaned, dropping to my side.
Suddenly, my belly started to squirm and blood was suddenly rushing out.
A small, wriggling little thing plopped out, smothered in a white sac. I waited until another came out and then looked at them in horror.
They were making little crying sounds and i finally got the message and ripped the white sac off of my babies.
My babies ... i'm a mummy ...
The little things were amazing, so tiny and beautiful ... and they crawled their way over to me, prodding at my belly.
I rolled over and craddled them whilst they suckled.
I fell asleep, curled around my new little darlings ....

Cray had stumbled upon the tiny cubs and his mate. He stood there, silent and in shock. Those cubs were his--and suddenly a fierce and overpowering urge to protect them with his life washed over him. Cray crept over to his mate and checked the genders of the cubs, he sighed. Both female. A mixture of sorrow and guilt washed over him. He was proud to be a father--but Mars words echoed inside of his head, reminding him that a male was the rightful ruler--not a female. Moro had been a powerful Queen which might have been one reason Mars wanted a male being the soul ruler of the kingdom. Either way, Cray knew he'd have to produce a male heir. As soon as Shaundi was ready--they'd mate again.
Even in this tender moment of a father lying his eyes on cubs for the first time--Cray's darker nature began to hurt his briefly warm heart, back into stone.

"They have your eyes" I smiled up at Cray.

Cray nodded slowly, licking Shaundi on the top of the nose. "How are you feeling?" He asked, sniffing the cubs slowly, taking in their smells and making sure they were healthy. They were. Cray slowly lowered himself down on the ground, placing the cubs between him and Shaundi. "They look great. Very healthy." He said deeply.
As he sat there, looking at his mate and cubs, he began to become content with that fact that they were female. He would just have more cubs and they'd have a big family, a big royal family. "Little princesses." He said, smiling his less than before awkward smile.

(Emily, remember the rule you put in place. I hope I'm not sounding like a jerk for reminding you.)

(No prop. I'm totally cool with the rule being changed but I just wanted to remind you. Glad you're not angry).
Cray smiled and titled his head to the side, "You don't seem alright." He sat up and went to hunt, grabbing a quick drink from a near by stream. As he crouched low, the white male caught scent of a rabbit, which he quickly stalked, killed and brought back to his mate. "Here." he growled placing the rabbit at her paws, while he sat slowly down, making sure not to wake the cubs. "You hungry? I hope you're feeling better. Water? Anything?" he asked, trying to feel less uncomfortable.
Cray looked down at the cubs, taking in their smell as they whined slightly as the sun began to break through the clouds. He stood to cast them in the shade again, finding his fatherly instincts to kick in again.

I smiled at Cray, nodding in thanks.
"I'm fine, honest. Thanks" I ate the rabbit, leaving nothing.
"Sorry" I looked down and blushed, trying to stand up.
On wobbly legs, i stood over my cubs and cleaned them, avoiding Cray's eyes.
"So ... should we name our cubs?" I asked, sitting back down.
I yawned and found a little bit of the rabbit blood.
Taking my paw, i rubbed a little blood on the cub's mouths and soon they were whimpering for more.
"They are incredible" I said in amazement, gazing a =t them lovingly.
I wondered what they would look like when they were older ... right now they were just tiny balls of coloured fluff.
Beautiful ... so beautiful

The new father nodded down at his mate, relived that she was eating and not struggling too much with standing.
Cray blushed but nodded, "I think we should try some more." he said, licking her shoulder and watching her play with the cubs. The sun was setting on their first day of birth and already they were learning the ropes of becoming a fantastic, powerful and royal wolves.
The thought of naming the cubs caught Cray by surprise. He sat down and thought for a while, "Well, what would you like." he didn't want to tell Shaundi this but, he had only thought of possible boy names. He growled and began to grow frustrated, but able to think of a name. "I'm sure whatever you choose will be great." He said, smelling a storm begin to roll in. I hope this passes over soon.

"I don't know either ..." I smiled.
Mars --
I walked in on the scene.
"Ah, my little grand-sons!" I beamed, lifting the cubs up and cuddling them/
"Little small for boys, eh Cray? Well done son, well done Shaundi. You gave the Royal Family 2 healthy boys" I grinned, setting the cubs down.
One crawled to Shaundi to suckle and the other stayed on the floor.
"Two bonny boys" I sighed, smiling at Cray.

Cray looked at Shaundi, a mixture of shame and anger on his face. He looked at his father and gave him a weak, awkward smile and said, "Let's take a walk." he growled, motioning for his father to join his a few yards away. "Father, they are not males. Both are female. My beautiful daughters, I am proud of them and they will grow up to be powerful princesses and perhaps one day" he swallowed, fighting back his anger, "queens!" he snarled.
He trotted back to his mate and cubs, giving them all three loving licks. "My beautiful girls." he whispered, smiling down at all of them.

Mars -
Fuming, i stared after my son and his mate. "Females ... no" I shook my head sadly, blinking.
You will get a son somehow.

I know father, I will mate with Shaundi as soon as she will have me. I will not stop until sons are born. But I love my cubs, I will take care of all of them, no matter how many there are.
Cray growled as he sent this message to his father, making sure Shaundi could not hear it as well. He glanced over at his tired mate and smiled at her proudly.

I nodded and dissapeared into the shadows.
Shaundi -
"They are beautiful" I smiled up at Cray, happiness shining on my face.

Cray growled low as he watched his father disappear. A mixture of shame in his heart and anger towards his father. How could he be so cruel? It wasn't like he could force themselves to have males. But they'd have to try again. Cray trotted over to his mate and licked the top of her head, "You did a great job, our daughters are beautiful."
