Mati had not always gotten along with her brother's mate. There had been a rough start to the two female's relationship. But then at the time there was also the strain of Princess' brother and Mati's relationship. It had been a contorted situation and Mati was happy that everything had been resolved when it had. She felt nothing but acceptance now in the other female's eyes and she held nothing less in her own. She wanted Haven to be happy, and could see it in his face now more then ever. There was nothing more that she wished to to but to be present and help as much as she could during the birth. It would not be easy, for nothing was easy in the months of winter. The air would hold a chill even with a fire burning, and they would all need to careful to keep the cold from touching the young ones for even a moment.
But her mind was quickly brought back to the moment, Of course! How much longer do you think Princess has? She asked, letting her thoughts drift again to the preparations that she and her mate will need to make. Of course she would be glad to make them all as well as the trip. Her brother was having puppies and nothing would keep her from making the journey to welcome them into the world. She had always felt a connection with the Cour des Miracles packlands, ever since Haven had settled there, and felt that this would only bring the two pack closer together.
She was sure that many things were going through her mother's mind. She had been the one to stay with them after Naniko had left, banished. She was not their blood, but here her son stood telling her that she was to be a grandmother with no hesitation. Mati would have done the very same thing. Nothing made either of them think that she was less of a mother to them, and she was all they wanted their children to know. That would likely never change. Anu hugged her son close, and Mati watched with eyes glistening. The gray thin wolfess pulled away, nodding with tears in her eyes. We will be there. She confirmed. And if there anything the pack can do, anything that you might need. You only have to ask. Their mother said with a slightly shaken voice. Mati smiled at her brother, and placed a supportive hand on their mother's shoulder.
