Jericho was a beautiful mare, but she was aging. Ink knew this. The boy wondered just how long the mare would live for and worried that her life span wouldn't be very long- he knew a lot about horses but the boy had no idea how long they lived for. Five years later and Jericho was still strong and active, not even showing signs of her age. Maybe they had the same lifespan as a luperci? Who knew.

Ink did know, however, that between two and six years of age, horses had the best luck with having foals. He'd never considered covering Jerri before, but with all the time he'd spent with Hex and Tem, he wondered what her foals would even look like and what kind of temperment they'd have. Vinatta could use the extra horses, except none of the horses in Vinatta were quite right for his precious mare.

So, he saddled up, packed up the saddlebags with various items and with Saul's permission, headed off to visit a friendly neighbor- Casa di Cavalieri. He knew that this was where Hex's mum had been covered and he hoped they'd have a good stallion there for stud. It took them quite a few hours but finally, Ink and Jerri landed on the borders of the other pack. He'd never, ever visited CdC before. He hoped they'd receive him well.

The boy slipped down from Jerri's back and without much hesitation, howled his high-pitched call for someone to greet him there. He hoped the alpha would come, Jazper. Jazper had been named a few times during talks with Saul and Tem and Ink knew from talk that the man had a stallion, a beautiful horse from what he'd heard. Perhapes Jazper would be willing to have his stallion cover Jerri with a trade of horse-related goods and possibly, depending on what the result would be, a new addition to their own stables. Twins were rare, though- he hoped the tack and supplies he'd packed would be good enough. "I hope you're ready for a hot and heavy date, Jerri." The mare snorted, bumping her nose against his shoulder affectionately, not really sure why they'd come here or why her food was on her back and not in her mouth.
