She watched him with sharp hawkish eyes in case he disturbed them or anything, she didn't know if she would be angry if he did, she hoped she wouldn't because she could see the pain in his eyes that he refused to let show on his face. At the same time she brushed the fur of her stomach down, it looked disturbingly empty now there was nothing inside it, something that freaked her out slightly as she was so used to the large protruding mass of flesh, kin and fur that had grown there to have it suddenly gone was something of a shock to the she wolf dog. Fingers twitches impatiently for something she didn't know what it was.
As she watched him hold them her mind suddenly brought up a memory from over two years ago when her mother had been pregnant with a second litter but when they had been born the pups had lain still, hadn't cried, hadn't wriggles of breathed. Lily had said it was one of life's tests and had buried her half brother in the ice as was custom. She was now starting to make the connection between her half brother and her own pups that Temo held, as he handed them back to her she looked down at them with something akin to loss or sorrow and her face pulled into a frown as she stroked the tiny cold bodies with her paw. Now she raised her doggish head to look at Temo ears flattened against her skull,
"They are dead, ain't they?" She knew it but confirmation was needed first. Her twitching stopped as the thought sunk into her confused and addled brain, instead she just looked sadly, locking it all away behind the heart of ice and snow, feeling numb.
