Charred Ash Draw The hour hand has spun

Special tag for @Tyne. All Draw wolves welcome but please keep in mind Nauja may become Territorial.

She had thought safety for the time when her and Tyne's children arrived would have been wherever she and Tyne had decided. The universe had decided to show her just how wrong she was. Running into the coyotes had only shown her that there wasn't a safe place outside the protection of a pack. She'd made the decision the remain with the draw wolves for now at least. That way she could give birth to her children without the worry of being attacked by any coyotes, or having them stolen from her before they had the chance to start their lives.

She'd been given a den that offered her the privacy that she would need and wanted during the affair. Though it had belonged to another she'd made it her own, making it as comfortable as she could for the birth. She wanted everything to be perfect and go perfect but she knew it wasn't a perfect world. If it was she and Tyne would be in a den by the sea, the sound of the waves against the beach and the smell of salt in the air and their fur comforting her through the birth.

As with most things in the lore she made due with what she had. Her search for the sea long over and the search for a place to raise her children on her mind. Charred Ash Draw, as she'd learned the name of the pack after coming to their lands seemed a good place and she had Tyne with her now. Recent days had proven to be full of restlessness and anxiety over all the things that could go wrong. She tried to keep those thoughts from her mind as best she could as it would never do her to be thinking on them so near to bringing her pups into the world. Each night she'd found it harder to find a comfortable position and she'd confined herself to the den only leaving to take care of her needs.

She woke up to sunlight entering through the den entrance and after a moment found she had no appetite. Her morning was spent fidgeting with the furs in the den or walking around the area outside her den. After what seemed so many hours of trying to control the way she was feeling the pain came. It drove her back into her den where she curled up at first before ending up on her side. Her breathing had slowed to long deep breaths in hopes that might help the pain.

Nauja hoped Tyne would be near, she didn't think she could call for him just then and she needed him to be there.

Having lost her once, Tyne stayed within ear shot the dark woman since he was reunited with her. Beyond thankful to the Draw wolves the agouti man vowed to repay them. For now though he would watch the mother of his children closely. Only going out to bring her what ever she may need. The last few days left Tyne ansy, Nauja's behavior changed and something told him the time was close.

As usual the Kersey man woke before his companion. He placed a kiss upon her crown before going out to get her something to eat. She had woken up by the time he returned but had no appetite. So Tyne burried it close by and laid outside the den. Golden eyes watched her restless movements, his own anexiety building within. When she entered the den and did not come back out Tyne began to worry. Getting up he went to the mouth of the den and poked his head in enough to see her curled on her side. His creamy brows knitted with worry "Nauja, are you okay?" He asked with concern in his voice. He had absolutely no idea what to do or not to do. He had only ever been around pregnancy, not actually birth.

Anyone who wants to join is still welcome too.

The first contraction came just as she was hoping that Tyne was close by. He'd been there all morning watching her, he'd even brought her food but she knew she couldn't eat then. It was the first time she hadn't been able to eat throughout her pregnancy. That had been her first clue that something was going on.

Her hopes were answered as the familiar face of the man she loved appeared at the den entrance. “No,” she breathed as another contraction came on, “It hurts Tyne,” she informed as she reached a paw out to him while laying on her side. The contraction subsided for a few moments. She was glad to have him with her for this not knowing if she could do it alone.

His charcoal duated ears fell flat against his skull at her answer. A low whine emitted from his maw as she reached towards him. He didnt want her to hurt. He crawled towards the onyx woman, moving to cradle her head against him if she allowed him. "Its gonna be okay Nauja, Im here. Is there anything that will help?" He asked the worry never leaving his tone. He loved this woman and couldnt help but feel a sense of guilt...this was partly his fault.

When she reached toward him hoping to touch him a confirmation that he was there. He did in better by crawling toward her and cradling her head. He spoke to her reassuring her that it was going to he okay, “We’ll get through it,” she said smiling weakly up at him, “Like we always do.” She shook her head a little when he asked if there was anything that would help. “I don't know,” she answered honestly. Having never been through this she hadn't known to speak with Draven or Kerb about something that could help the pain. With each contraction that came the sea wolf buried her face in her partner's fur.

As much pain as she was in she knew that in the end it would all be worth it. She and Tyne were starting their family and soon the rest if it's members would join them.

He curled around her, agouti furn mingling with ebony. He gave her a return smile "just like we always do". Inky lips frowned when we said she didnt know. "Itll be okay love, we'll get through this" Tyne spoke softly hoping to soothe her, even just a little bit. Golden eyes watched as the older sea wolf was riddled with contractions. With each one she burried her face into his fur. The Kersey man groomed her fur in hopes that it wold provide some comfort.

They had both been through a lot together and apart but Nauja was convinced that together they could get through anything. She kissed his muzzle when he confirmed that she'd said. Her chest swelling with the love she had for him. “I know it will be now that you're here with me.” The feeling of his body against hers as he'd curled around her gave her the strength she would need to get through this. As her contractions came he groomed her, Nauja's eyes closed at the touch.

Her body tensed with each one and then she could feel it the first pup would be curled up with them soon enough. “It's happening Tyne,” she said as she gave one last push. Without hesitation she moved to clean the little bundle of black fur off.

ahhh :D <3

His charcoal banner thudded against the ground at her kiss. The love he never thought he'd hold again after all that's happened. First with Ayla, the heart break of her sudden disappearance, then the attack by the dark woman that almost left him for dead. Both experiences had left the large sea wolf a cold hard shell of his previous self. If it wasnt for Nauja he wouldnt be here at all actually. She had saved his life in more ways than one. He would never be able to thank her enough so Tyne vowed to do everything in his power to provide for her and their children.

It seemed like the contractions went on for en eternity but he wouldnt complain. Instead he waited patiently providing comfort where he could. Her words reached his ears causing him to stop his grooming. Golden orbs met firey orange with anticipation. "Really?" He asked almost breathlessly. Was he really about to become a father? Eyes moved from hers as Nauja gave one more push delivering their child. Pride and wonder filled the man as he just witnessed thw mircle of life...something most males never will see. Molten eyes took in the dark bundle as it wailed its tiny lungs out. Tynes charcoal tail gently beat against the ground once more. He showered Nauja in as much affection as she would allow. "You did wonderfully my love" he said giving her cheek a final nudge. This was his family now. His responsibility, but he wouldnt trade this moment for the world.

After finding Tyne and bringing him back to the notch he'd been such a constant in her life it was now so hard for her to imagine her life without him. Those few days they had been separated had been hard in her not knowing if he was okay it even if she'd ever see him again. Having him laying next to her as she gave birth to their children, it was a special moment. They had been through so much together in the last months that to her it only made sense to allow him to share the birth with her. “Yes,” she breathed at his question, their first child was in it's way whether they were ready for parenthood or not.

As their son came into the world with one last push Nauja couldn't have been happier. She had everything she'd ever wanted. A place she could call home, a man who loved her and the children she'd been hoping for. Her little gift cried out loudly as she licked his fur clean and right away she knew just how precious he would be to her. Once she was satisfied with the cleanliness of their boy she turned her attention to Tyne. He was full of affectionate touches which she accepted happily. “I couldn't have done it without you here,” she told him as she rested against him. She expected more contractions but when they didn't come she looked down at their newest addition. “I think we are only going to have one child to dote on.”

Pride filled the sea wolf's chest as his drak love told him she couldnt have done it without him and laid her head on him. Moments passed without any more contractions Nauja said that they would only have one. That was perfectly fine for the new father. He was very happy with his small family. Smiling at the tiny bundle he replied "Looks like this little one will get all the attention". Tyne nudged her cheek with his coal nose. He had no problem focusing on one child, he thought it would be better actually since theyre first time parents.
