The dark warrior stepped forward and Mew smiled a small smile. She watched her packmate as she gave her attention to the children for a moment, fascinated by this side of her. For all their moments spent together, Mew hardly knew Cwmfen, but she had always seen her as the strong, silent and perhaps cold, female. Now, she was different, and Mew could see that she knew, too. She knew, and she was happy. It was more than Mew could ask for, for the weight around her waist was nothing but a curse, now. It had come at the wrong time and in the wrong way, and she wished she had never prayed for such a thing.


     

Bending her neck, Mew let the satchel drop to the ground, and its top fell off to reveal the contents. "I brought you some meals - no doubt it is hard to find enough to supply their growing bodies." She only had two, and Mew knew that it was not uncommon to have twice as many, if not more than that. In that sense, Cwmfen was lucky, perhaps. Mew's little smile lingered as she glanced at the den mouth, as if wanting to steal a glimpse of the small. To be truthful, she did want to see them. She wondered what children of this mysterious figure would look like.

     

Emerald eyes dropped to the ground as Cwmfen stated the obvious. She did not want to talk about it, but she was a visitor, now, and Cwmfen was a leader of this pack as well. The white female didn't believe that Cwmfen would be angry or disappointed in her if she did not speak of it, but the need to follow those in command had always been strong in her. She was ashamed, but she would reply. Waiting a moment, she lifted her gaze again and met the peculiar eyes of the Adonis. "Yes." Pausing, she considered to stop there, in hopes that the subject would be avoided. But no; she did not have the privilege of hiding from the world any longer. These pups were a concern of all the members of the pack, and God knew she needed someone to take care of them when she was gone. For she believed she would die. "Honestly... I'm terrified."
