They were beautiful. So small within his his huge paws, tiny and fragile lives that he held in the palms of his hands. There were only two but they were perfect to the ivory male. The girls created by himself and Pandora. Amber eyes flickered brightly behind partially closed lids, all manner of feelings were welling up inside of his tattooed chest. His mother had been right all along, you didn't know what love was until you held your children in your arms. Honrin hadn't been a boy for a long time but looking at them now made him feel as giddy and excitable as he had been when playing with his sisters at a young age. To him they were perfect but to others they would be flawed, they would be hideous creations, born from a union of brother and sister. Ichika no Ho-en would never learn the secret from him that he was their father, not some nameless wandering womanizer.

They were brought to his chest and held there, soft noises of content coming from them, they were warm and safe and full, that was all young pups cared for at the start. Honrin could feel moisture collecting in the corner of his eyes and so set himself to pacing back and forth in an attempt to distract himself from the overwhelming flood of emotions. He was in the nursery of his parents house in Westville, where he himself had been born three years earlier. Their family had grown substantially since then and now coveted a large percentage of Ichika's numbers for themselves. Temo and Jace; Honrin, Pandora, Dalgina and Keldava, then Norea and Kail, Victory as the youngest of the lot of them and now these two youngsters, who had yet to be named. He frowned slightly as he thought of his poor blind sister, she tried so hard and he longed to restore her sight to her.

He was quiet in his pacing for not several feet from him the mother of his children slept in exhausted relaxation. He murmured to the newborns softly and rained down soft kisses onto their impossibly small heads, a noise behind him made him twist and then breathe a sigh of relief as it was only their mother come to check,

"Mother" He greeted her warmly with an one armed hug.
