where you invest your love, you invest your life

Used this title for the Kam thread, but I don't care, I love it XD

It had been just over a month since the pups had been born and the father's love for them seemed to grow every day that they did. Already they had changed so much from the blind and deaf squirming little bundles that had come into the world that day. Their eyes now open and wide to the world, their little legs learning to work and explore. The Seneschal had woken early, as he usually did, and the pups had stirred with him. Wanting to let Princess sleep a bit more he had scooped the trio up in his arms and carried them out to the warmth of the living room. The fire crackled merrily in the hearth as the Aatte man sat down on the floor with his children. He placed them carefully down on the ground and smiled lovingly down at them, three sets of eyes looking back with their stubby tails wagging.

Haven laid down on his side next to his pups, the fire at his back--he wanted to be certain none of them came too close to the flames--and he spoke softly to them, "I love you all so much, I hope you know." He wanted them to be certain of that truth every day of their precious lives. He was their dad, and he would always love them and protect them. Felicity came up and rubbed up against his scarred chest before planting a lick on his chin. Haven nuzzled his smallest daughter's head while Robin pounced on her brother awkwardly and tried to nip playfully at his ear. Linden retaliated by trying to paw at his sister's face and making little puppy growls. As the father looked at his children, he saw only perfection and love filled him up from the tips of his ears to his toes.

Though she was not alone in the duties of parenthood, the young Lady Chance was often very tired and she enjoyed the extra moments of sleep when her mate afforded them to her. Truthfully, she did not know if she was more tired now that the pups were born than she had been during the last few weeks of her pregnancy, but it did not matter, she did not think. Princess loved the three small bundles of life with all of her heart, as did Haven, and that was all that was important now. She still had the same fears that she'd had during her pregnancy, but they were less pronounced, nothing like the day she had panicked and hidden in the grotto, only to be found and comforted by Niro. Being a mother was a bit scary, especially as she did not have much of a role model, but she knew that she would be able to do it. Linden, Robin, and Felicity were nothing short of loved by the young Lady and her Knight.

The young woman rolled over in her sleep, nuzzling against the pillow with a soft and contented sigh. The bed felt empty without her mate beside her, though that was not uncommon in the mornings, as he was usually the one who woke first. For a moment, she simply lay there in peaceful silence, golden eyes closed to the world. She was not worried for the safety of her puppies, as she knew Haven would be with them now while she was asleep. He would never allow anything to happen to them, or to her. The moments were not many that she lay there before she rose, walking quietly down the hall to the living room. She stood just outside the door frame, lithe fingers resting just below her cheek against the frame as she watched her pups and her mate, a lovely smile gracing her petite and delicate muzzle.

Sorry for the icky wait : /

Haven's own fears about becoming a father had dissipated early and showed no signs of resurfacing now that his children were finally here. The Knight knew that he would always act in their best interest, and would never do anything to cause them pain. He would rather drive his sword through his own gut than bring any sort of harm to the three pups that he had helped create. It was a gruesome image, but it fit how powerfully he felt on the subject of not hurting his kids. The man sensed that Princess still might have some lingering worries but he saw no reason for her concern. She was already proving a wonderful mother, just as he knew that she would. Together, they would bring their children up right. They would have good, sound morals and they would always know they were loved. Princess and Haven would never abandon them. There was no place either of them would rather be.

Robin bit playfully at her brother's large paw before she jumped back and barked at him in a clearly taunting way. Linden rolled over and rose to his sibling's challenge, tumbling after her and knocking her over until they were just a ball of flailing limbs and soft growls and yips. Felicity seemed to turn her nose up at this as she sat primly by her father. Haven chuckled at this, enjoying seeing his pups' personalities make themselves known. A shape moved in his periphery and the Knight turned his head to see his mate watching them all with a smile on her face. Haven smiled back at her, and his hand rose in a motion to bring her to join them. "Did you sleep well? You still look a little tired." Pregnancy, and then the labor, had taken a lot out of his slim Lady and he couldn't help but worry after her a bit.

Me too. ._.

For a moment, the young Lady of the court simply watched her mate and their puppies. It was nothing short of a miracle that she had gotten to where she was in life, and Princess could not imagine being happier than she was in that moment. The children she had created with Haven had begun to grow so rapidly, their personalities becoming so vividly apparent to the young mother. She laughed softly for a moment at the look that adorned Felicity's face, so similar to Princess' own. Felicity was the most like her, not only in appearance, but also in demeanor.

The lithe woman nodded as Haven spoke to her, golden eyes focused on his handsome face. "I am, but it's okay. I did sleep well." She always slept well when he was with her, for even if she was haunted by anything in the night, her pumpkin Knight was there to fight off the demons. Walking gracefully into the room and settling herself neatly on her knees on the floor, she watched the way that Robin and Linden wrestled with such energetic excitement. "How are you this morning, my love?" she asked Haven, reaching out to run her fingers along his thigh affectionately.

Yay, no wait this time!

It was amazing to think how far the pair had come since that first night they had spent together. What had started out as an unexpected dalliance had turned into so much more. She had moved here for him, they were mates, and now they had children together. Had their own little family. Haven certainly could not have guessed that all of this would have come form that drunken flirtation, but he knew he would not have wished it any other way. He loved Princess with all he had, just as he loved the three little bundles of joy they had brought into existence.

It was too bad that Princess was still tired, but he was at least heartened to hear that her sleep had not been troubled. Tired or not, she was always beautiful to him. He smiled lovingly at her as she settled herself on the floor and looked at their two wrestling children. They seemed oblivious to their mother's presence, but Felicity was not and eagerly walked over towards her mother with her stubby tail wagging. A chill ran down Haven's spine at the light touch to his thigh. A large hand reached out to take her smaller one, squeezing her fingers gently. "Couldn't be better," his deep voice spoke in warm tones. Truly, he could ask for nothing more than what he had in this room right here.
