Slipping away
#2
She was so thin. Much too thin. His beautiful loving mate had wasted away to nothing more than skin and bones. Her fur had lost it's sheen, yet she still slept. Hadley had done everything he could think of to wake her up. There had just been no way around it. He couldn't stay there all the time, though he did spend most of his time there. He had to get food for him and Amatha. The pup actually looked the best out of the family, as Hadley had focused all his energy on fixing his family, forgetting about himself at times.

The sight of Amatha snuggling into Isa's body broke his heart. Look, he wanted to say, Look at your daughter, Isa. She needs you. Wake up. He stayed silent, not wanting to upset Amatha. Instead he reached over, taking the pup into his arms. Cuddling her close he smiled down at her. Not now. Right now she needs her rest. Softly he began to sing, snatches of italian words from the lullaby he'd heard Sebastian singing to Amatha when the poor male was panicking and trying to calm the pup down.
