Saul Chibi is by Requiem!

There were many a time in the past week or so when Saul had glanced over at his mate and spotted the fearful, worried mix that had only started happening when he'd revealed her pregnancy. He often questioned himself about it- was Lilin happy that she was carrying his children? Did she want children at all? There was little point in asking the Soulstorm herself, she was deliciously stubborn at the best of times and there was almost no hope of getting an honest answer out of her about this turn of events. He knew, instinctively, that she would tell him what he wanted to hear, but he would always know that she wasn't being truthful. Instead, he remained silent and supportive, complimenting often as he'd begun to notice the rounding bump filling out his mates form. They were perhaps just over halfway there- he estimated from the size she was getting that their pups would be born in the middle of next month.

For his own emotions, Saul was ecstatic. He hadn't been able to keep the news in and had informed his immediate family a while ago. He was sure the information had filtered through the pack and he hoped the rest of them knew of the upcoming mouths that would need to be fed. Of course, his mates pregnancy had kicked his own protectiveness up a gear and he was sure he was becoming unbearable to Lilin, who enjoyed her freedom and hated being told what to do. He remembered his request to stay away from the borders when she'd been attacked- that hadn't stopped her from accepting Nahyt and Hael into their ranks. A soft snort escaped his lips as he thought of her recent transgression- she'd informed him of her friends Oak and Cassia joining their home. He had been happy that they had new members, but the thought of his pregnant mate going to the borders, where Colibri had been attacked and raped, had his stomach churning and the fire in his belly had been channelled into making sure every nook and cranny of the borders was marked and checked daily.

After setting Eirias into the air, Saul took off towards the shoreline. Luckily, this was one of the safer borders, though he remembered Luella and her boat who'd landed here a while ago. She was gone now, but these stretch of borders were on his mind. He was able to settle into his patrolling mode- thoughts emptying and nose taking over to scent every few moments. Occasionally he would stop and release his scent on a tree or a rock where it was wearing thin, but otherwise he walked in the curving line towards the Commune. It was then that a spicy new scent caught his attention. He could smell the familiar pine and salt smell that clung to his own coat, but it wasn't nearly as strong. He deduced, as he exited a swathe of bushes, that this must be one of their new members. Sure enough, it took him only a handful of minutes to catch up with the cinnamon female and a smile brushed his lips. I'm glad to see a new member taking interest in keeping our borders safe, thank you. He called out, gratitude colouring his green eyes lighter.
