It's time for a breeding thread! :D I would like to spree this as much as possible :)
March 1st Clear skies, dusk, -4F/-20C
The woman's body was changing, at first it had been subtle but now the change was definite and stronger than ever. First it had been her scent that had changed, just slightly but enough that was noticeable and now she wore a pungent perfume, one she knew could be dangerous if she came across the wrong man. Minka's body was begging for a need she couldn't fulfill on her own, and she was ready to offer what she had promised Tokino. It wasn't her first heat and it wouldn't be her last but the woman was surprised again at how uncomfortable she constantly felt. Her whole body felt warm all over and she could hardly sleep, even food didn't seem incredibly appetizing to her.
It was time and she knew, as she was sure that Tokino was as well, that if she were to bear his children this spring it would be time to breed. The thought of pups consumed her all the time since her heat started, what she would name them, who they would grow to become, what they would look like. In the last few nights when she couldn't sleep she had escaped deep into the caverns where she couldn't be bothered and she would be protected from any wayward loner who would catch her scent. There she had daydreamed the lives of what her offspring would grow to become, strong leaders, intelligent advisors like their father, capable hunters like their mother. Perhaps intellects like her brother Rolland had been, or scouts like Inali and her sister Emlen. So now she waited, and watched as the sun began to sink into a dusky sky for the man who would make her dreams a possibility.
