sorry I'm a little late to the party! 300+
Usually Haven was a fairly early riser, liking to get as much out of the daylight as he possibly could. Idle wasn't something the Knight often let himself be, but he had laid in bed with Princess a bit longer than usual this morning. The weather was beginning to change, a definite chill in the air that had not been there before. The Aatte didn't look forward to winter. Not only was he not a big fan of the cold, but snow made doing his duties significantly more difficult. Hopefully fall would be longer and they could stave off winter as long as possible. A vain hope, but one he had nonetheless. When he finally got up and was getting ready for the day, a familiar howl rent the air with an unfamiliar note to it. His bi-colored ears perked forward and it took him a moment before the meaning fully came to him. Ruri was pregnant, it must be time! Bright jade eyes looked to his mate as a big grin spread over his face. Haven hurriedly put on his jacket, grabbed Princess' hand, and they sprinted out the door.
Both of their feet were spurred on by the excitement of their friends imminent joy and it didn't take them long to reach the cabin at all. Haven noted the odd skew to the door and could make a good guess as to what had happened there. Carefully opening the broken door, he and Princess slipped into cabin to be met with many other acquaintances. He first saw Anann and nodded at her and then he spotted Alaine. Good, it would be better for everyone that the healer was here. The Knight had seen her work one delivery before, but that one had ended in tragedy. This would be the complete opposite of that occasion though. Then his eyes fell on Ruri and Heath. The father-to-be was at his mate's side, holding her protectively through her labor pains. Haven could only fathom what his friend was going through; he looked more lost than he had ever seen the hybrid. Now that they were here, the man found himself feeling a little lost himself. What should he do? He really hadn't a clue, so he decided to stay put until someone told him what he should do.
