His cousin disappeared and his mate was pregnant and Jiva was torn in different directions. He could see the seriousness of the situation New Dawn was in with Amy, and he was getting far more protective of the pack. He even volunteered to go on a scouting mission reassuring his mate that he would be back and he would either have Amy’s pelt or something to show for it. He didn’t promise though. He did promise he would try. He was quite nervous and today was his last day in New Dawn before they headed out towards where they saw Amy last. He would gladly find and spend it with Palaydrian but she was resting and he was restless. She was so sound asleep that he felt it was best to let the pregnant woman rest.
He moved south a favorite area he liked to enjoy himself at. It had a multitude of different things about it that he liked, the river was the most important. It was what calmed him... and then there were the otters that lived around him and they knew when a wolf was hungry or not. They kept spot in the summer near the southern edge of the pack during the summer time. They would move away during the winter but he was too much into thinking about keeping from drowning in the snow at that time to worry about otters.
He trotted out of the den and let the sun sit on him and glow down below to warm him before he moved into the forest in which nearly surrounded the den itself. His mate’s birthing den was close by and he checked it to make sure that it was ready for her. She still had a month but one could never know if a creature would start using it as their own den and he would have to challange them. Seeing it was empty of life and scent he marked it as his own before heading down south toward the borders, feeling anxious.
