It's Kiara's b-day!

Word Count → 465


It was exactly two years ago that Kiara had come into the world. Her first days were gone completely from her memory, although her mother loved to talk about them. Kiara had often listened to her mother fawn over her and her siblings as she described their first days of life. Six white puppies, all blind and deaf. As with most litter's, only four of the six made it past the first few days. It was then that Kiara and her siblings had received their names.


A sharp pain in her abdomen pulled the white female out of her thoughts. Every day the puppies that were growing inside her grew more active and her midsection continued to swell. Unfortunately, the increased activity led to some rather painful kicks to her internal organs. Kiara staggered while stars floated past her field of vision. It took several moments before the world righted itself and her vision cleared. She shook her head a little and continued on her path through the forest.


So far, her pregnancy had gone off without a hitch. Although she was no expert, it seemed to her like she had been normal and her puppies were developing well. The only problem seemed to arise in her activity. Kiara loved to run and to be active, but as her body had inflated like a balloon she was having trouble staying active. Moving had become difficult and her back hurt so much. Not to mention the occasional kicks to her middle made even walking difficult.


Earlier in the day Kiara had gone for a stoll. The weather had been lovely and warm, so Kiara had traveled to the nearby stream to take a bath. The cool water felt great against her skin and a lot of her fur that she had started to shed was washed away. After her bath, the arctic wolf slowly made her way back to the den. When Kaira approached the entrance she was greeted by a familiar scent. She lowered her muzzle to the ground to get a better sample. Sure enough, it was one of Jace's puppies. Kiara cocked her head, curiosity slowly bubbling to the surface. The enlarged female slowly ducked down into the dim den. Her clean coat was going to get a little dirty, but the dirt didn't really bother Kiara.


Sure enough, settled into the deer fur and wrapped in Kiara's precious scarf was Keldava. The dried grass she had meticulously collected was scatter about. The young mother shook her head and sighed. She would have to gather it all up later. However, with another look at the sleeping puppy, white female couldn't help but smile. Slowly, she moved towards the puppy. Kiara gently licked the top of Keldava's head before settling down next to her.
