What for are they in?
The black pavement beneath her feet made traveling through Ichika easy. Although many sections were broken entirely, it was easier on her body then the mountain. As Kiara moved slowly along the highway she happily dreamed of the days to come. Kiara didn't often think of the future, however with the birth of her puppies just weeks away she couldn't help but wonder about the changes that would happen in her life. The arctic wolf loved puppies and was the packs designated puppy sitter. She had been diligently watching after Jace's litter for several months and when Sarian was still around Kiara had helped raised her as well. Living with Sarian had been tiring, but Kiara had enjoyed every minute of it. Perhaps her own children would be like that as well. Kiara's tail wagged at the prospect. In the young mother's mind her puppies couldn't come soon enough.
When the highway turned North and started to head for New Glasgow, the white female wondered if she should turn around. Although the area had some of the best stretches of road, Kaira was also fairly far away from her den. She wanted to continue walking, but being too far away for the woods made her nervous. There wasn't any reason for it, just instincts. Although she knew that the puppies were still a few weeks away, she still felt the need to be close to her den. Kiara looked back, but decided to continue on for a little while longer. She hated being cooped up in her hole in the ground and wished that she could just run.
Soon the figures of two canines appeared in the distance. The larger figure started down the road towards Kiara while his companion remained in one place. The sight was rather odd to Kiara and she paused briefly to cock her head to the side. "Namaste," she called as she trotted up to the male. Her usual smile and wagging tail were in full force. Kiara loved meeting new canines, and moved towards them as quickly as her bulging body would move.
The mother-to-be- recognized both of them from the pack meeting, although she didn't know who they were. They had been one of the few to vocally stand up for X'yrin's leadership. At the time, Kiara didn't know who to follow. Her instinct told her to follow Jace, a canine who in Kiara's mind would make a great alpha. However, X'yrin had been given the position and Kiara really like X'yrin. To be frank, Kiara still didn't know what to think of the situation so she let the be. There was no point in deciding because in the end, it didn't really matter to her. The luperci packs were wierd anyways.
