you picked me

puppies. >D

Despite the snow that still covered the ground, and the freezing breezes that blew across the stone and seemed to reach right into your bones, Alexander knew that Spring was on its way. He felt happier, there was a spring in his step, and with Spring came puppies. His dearest Amé...He was glad that they'd had a chance to discuss the nearing season of Spring. But this fact wasn't necessarily at the forefront of his mind. When she was ready, she'd tell him, he was sure, but for now, he rested comfortably upon his high stone perch.

The temptation to retreat into his den was killing him. It would certainly be warmer in there, despite being almost completely surrounded by stone. He could curl up and wait for her to come in for the night and it would be the most comfortable place in the world. But as the sun began to set, he felt it was his duty to make sure that the pack was safe until the sun was gone. Whether or not it had any effect, he seemed to think so, and it was his ritual. So, he fared the cold, and simply stared towards the path leading away from Midnight Plateau's land. Besides, the large male was accustomed to the cold. He would endure for the safety of his pack.

The chilling breeze was comfortable against her resilient arctic pelt, for she was built for the harshness of the winter and the bitterness of the snow. Winter was when Amé felt most at home, but this did not mean that the beginning of spring was undesired. In fact, for the first time in a long time, Amé actually longed for spring. This time, she, too, could participate in bringing new life into the world.

There was a time when Amé had been nervous of what was to come. Bringing forth life meant procreation would have to take place; this was something she had never done before. As the days wore on Amélie noticed changes that were taking place within her own body. She longed to be with Alexander every second of the day, her flirtatious mannerisms became more blaring by the day, and an urge in her was growing stronger. Despite this, she never truly felt 'ready' per-say, to fulfill the task destined for her...that is, until today.

There was a sensual sway of her hips this evening, along with a spark that had never been there before. From the distance she watched Alexander in a daze, knowing it would take him (and the rest of the pack males) only moments to catch the scent of her hormones. With a few slinky steps, she made her way towards her mate, holding a coquettish smile. Reaching him then, she bumped her body against him and leaned towards him in an attempt to mouth his muzzle. "Hi,"

Looking out at the darkening sky, he took in a deep breath, mostly to enjoy the scent of the chilly air, but instead he smelled something much, much better. Better, but foreign, unfamiliar. His jowls twitched, and he rose from his resting position to stare down at the stone that he'd claimed. Following the smell was the appearance of his mate, and instantly, he couldn't take his eyes off of her. How strange was it that the male mind could so easily be overtaken by something as common as a scent, but it wasn't just any scent...

Without moving, as the flawless white female approached him, he let out a visible huff of air that made all four knees buckle for just a moment. Slowly, his head turned, and he met her eyes as she lined up beside him, and the mere touch made him growl in a way that not even Alexander had heard before. It was probably just as powerful as the way she said hello, or the way she merely smelled. "Darling," The gray male simply purred, ears twisting back as he leaned down to nibble at her nape. It was like a cooling process...Perhaps this simple action could control his emotions.

Unfortunately, the simple action did little to quell much of anything. The scent still lingered. It was difficult to form coherent thoughts when his mind was simply focused on one thing. How quickly things had shifted. He could hardly form words. "I hope you're ready..." It seemed incredibly un-suave to simply have at it...But from the way things had changed so quickly, he felt that speaking had little purpose. This fact was clear as he turned and began to circle her. He didn't need permission.

She could see the power she had over him instantly. From his huff of air to his trembling body, it was a side of him she had never seen before. Like any man he wanted to take her as soon as he saw her, but like any woman, she would not give in just yet. Amé did not say much of anything, just batted her lashes as she slipped away from his grasp. Like a playful puppy, she bounded off a few feet away, and danced on her paws. Her tail swung to and fro, fanning her tantalizing scent out into the open.

After all, nothing good comes easy.

It was almost heaven-sent that such a scent had completely overridden his mind. Despite his age, Alexander was rather...Unexperienced. But all actions seemed to flow through him quite naturally now. Unfortunately, before he could make his move, away she slipped, flitting across the stone, leaving an invisible trail behind her. His teeth ground together, and he growled, following swiftly after her.

She wouldn't escape his grasp, and he trailed her relentlessly. She was his now, and this was simply meant to be. If she wanted, she could fly all she wanted. He'd catch her eventually.

He was, as expected, very persistent. Immediately he went after her, trailing her every step, eager to claim what was rightfully his. She lowered her rump into a sit, and began to lick Alexander's face. Her body was quite giddy as she did this, her rump occasionally rising as toyed with the giant. He would eventually win her over, of course, but right now she felt as though there was no need to rush. Softly she whined in his ears, and she nipped at them as she whipped her tail frantically in the moments building excitement.

Why was she so adamant? It frustrated him beyond all reason, but he would let her have her fun, before he had his way. Of course, the lucky dame probably still had her reason, while the hopeless male was lacking it all. It was on a one-track course, and it simply could not be derailed. Though, it could be elongated. When she was ready. He'd remembered thinking that before. If this was what she needed, he'd just have to wait it out for her own sake.

When she stopped suddenly, and sat (to Alexander's complete dismay), he curled himself around her, and licked her muzzle. Each time she rose, only to sit once more, a sudden ran down his frame, and he uncurled himself, moving around her again, until he was behind her. Pressing as close to her as he could, he moved his muzzle towards her ear, and let out a breath, before nibbling at her nape again. "How much longer must you torture me?" He growled, moving his muzzle towards her ear again.

The arctic fox chuckled at Alexander's desperateness. It was amusing to see him so vulnerable, and she felt honored to be the only one to not only see him this way, but be the reason for it. Alas, Amé finally lifted her rump and pushed back onto Alexander. With a soft nod of her head she gave her okay, and prepared herself for what was to come. Her four paws were spread out evenly over the rocky ground and she wrapped her long tail around her thigh. With a backwards glance she smiled at her mate invitingly, thinking she was so happy she had found him.

Letting out a heavy breath of air, he licked her cheek, trying to keep himself breathing when she backed into his chest. Was this his permission? The shifting of her tail was only further indication, and in that brief moment, he met her eyes, and a smile, not shrouded in something feral or wanting, but true love spread his muzzle upwards. They would be one now, and together forever.

FADE TO BLACK....! and done.
