As he had expected, his mate moved to be by their daughter's side, and Niro was there, as well. The King did not wish to crowd the expectant mother when she was already so obviously stressed. It pained him to see her in such a state, but he knew that there was little he could do. Hopefully his presence would help to ease her worries, but he would not move as close as Ayita and Niro were. He did not wish to crowd her. Instead, the dog mutt sat against the wall of the cave, jade eyes watching the three wolves. Vigilante did not look away, but he did not speak or move closer, either.
This was not what he ever would have wished for Amaranth. She was too young to become a mother, hardly more than a puppy herself. It had bothered him to know that she had taken a mate at such a young and tender age. Now, though, he realized that he was about to become a grandfather. He would not be related to this puppy by blood, as Amaranth was not born of his own, but she was more his daughter than she had ever been Leroy's. Despite his worries and concerns for her, he was feeling a bit excited about the puppies, as well.
