It didn't take very long after her call for the fae to hear frantic paws scurrying from just around the corner. Her suspicions coming to light, the large ebony frame of her mate instantly calmed Ghita down, knowing that at least Jazper would help her to keep a more level head. The pair had been through one successful birth already - and Ghita hoped that the pattern would be repeated. Moving herself gingerly and delicately onto the blanket, the warmth instantly helped the laboring woman, who let her turquoise gaze meet the corresponding yellow one with a level of cautious excitement. Letting out a shaky sigh as Jazper summoned friends and family alike, she let her tongue rasp gently over Jazper's hand before nodding, telling her mate all she needed to without words. Would the birthing be difficult? Probably, just like the others. But would it be worth it? That was a question not even worth asking.

Through the breathing she tried to regulate and the slightly panicked movements her brute of a mate were making, Ghita didn't notice the tuxedoed frame of her son enter the room until he cried out. Turquoise orbs flicked up to meet her son's gaze and she gave him her best attempt at a reassuring smile, all the while praying that he wouldn't have to see the miracle of life in such a scarring way. “Don't you fret, Signore Aro. It's not too bad." Putting on a brave face for her son brought on a whole different level of difficulty for the fae, but the headstrong girl was more than up for the challenge. Offering a nuzzle in Aro's general direction, she gave him a wink before preparing for the oncoming contraction. “D'you think you're ready to meet your siblings?

Letting the contraction rock her small frame for the time being, her ebony front claws sought out some piece of solid wood - hopefully the floor beneath her - to steady and ground her away from the pain. It was now more than ever that she wished for something to clamp onto, to make sure that her expression and tension in her body were the only things that would give away any sort of pain to Aro. Around the more senior members of her family, Ghita's pride was the only thing keeping her from expressing pain normally, but when it came to birthing, all cards were out on the table. Savina had gone through two litters before, she would surely know how it felt. And the males... they surely would be able to tell from the behavior.

Thanking the heavens over and over again for her cool-minded sister, the ebony fae filled in words to Aro where the mother could not at the moment, feeling the contractions fade only for a moment, as the first pup was ready to come out. It was an odd sensation, knowing when the pups were ready as sure as one knew their location, but Ghita could feel them stirring, hoping to any Gods that anyone believed in that her pups would be delivered safely. Nodding to Savina, her panting became more pronounced as time went on, her voice breaking slightly as she informed the room as to her state. “I think... the first one's ready, Savi."

Her chocolate coloured niece arrived just on cue, causing another stream of thankfulness to run through the Marino fae's already occupied mind. “"Grazie al cielo, Cambi. Il primo sta arrivando adesso." Taking a shaky breath in once more, the fae let it out in a panicky hissing noise, all the while pushing as hard as she could, knowing that every second counted. An eternity stretched by, or could it have been a minute, before the small, trembling, bloody frame of the first pup emerged from Ghita, slimy and bloody in all of it's newborn glory. It was a boy, that was for sure, but as for any other details, she left that to the wolf who caught her pup, watching it through a haze of relief and pain. Her load was lighter, that was for sure, but there was only a matter of time before the remaining pups would make their entrance to this world.
