in the kingdom of the sun

300+ I soooo totally didn't forget that I was supposed to start this, nope. =P

Spring was upon them now, thankfully, and Princess had taken the sunny day as a good sign. The puppies were much older now, nearly a full two months, and she wanted them to know the pack and its members and land early on. Perhaps it had not been the best thing for them to be born in winter, but it was not as if she and Haven had planned for when they would conceive children. They had discussed having children and she had taken the initiative that day, but it had not exactly been with the intention of conceiving children. It had been welcome (except on the days when she had a mental break down because of her worries and fears), but not entirely planned. It probably would have been better if they had been born closer to spring, but she did not dwell on that. She was so happy to have them.

The young woman was practically giddy that the weather was growing nicer, so she had packed a small basket with some dried strips of meat, a book of stories, and a blanket and gathered her children around her. They had been excited by the prospect of a picnic on the beach, so the mother and her three young children had set off towards the sandy shores, the three puppies dancing excitedly around her feet and the light breeze causing the light material of her white halter dress to flutter around her legs. When they reached the beach, the young woman spread the blanket out neatly on the sand, settling the basket on one of the corners as she pulled out the book of children’s stories. Golden gaze watched her children as they romped in the sand, though she warned them once not to go too close to the water, before she finally settled herself down to read and learn from the book.

The storm in Niro’s head would not subside. It grew as the time neared for his own children to be born. It seemed Amaranth was at a worry too, but Niro knew she would be a great mother, she was a very protective woman and he knew she would care for the pups like no one could... but could he? Could he provide for them and protect them like he was not able to with his own daughters he already had, with the one that he had in his custody now? Yeah what a great father... he thought bitterly, thinking of how Maggie had avoided him at every second. It hurt the man’s heart, and thought, maybe he wasn’t meant to be a father. He wanted nothing more than to care for his children, but when he tried everything went awry.

He’d been moving along the shores past his home. It wasn’t a bad day for a walk either, it was rather pleasant, and in the distance he could make out someone taking advantage of this sunny day. Quite a few someones as he got closer. Then he could recognize one, and knew exactly who the other three miniature someone’s were. Princess had her pups, and they had grown! Niro smiled, thinking this was the first time he had come across her and she was not in some kind of turmoil, in fact she seemed so much more happier, and this made Niro glad. Maybe his own worries were just that... worries. Though didn’t he have proof of his own horrible fatherhood? With Maggie, Poppy and Foxglove? Niro pushed the thought away he didn’t want this to become anything bad for Princess who deserved to be happy for once.

“Princess! I see you had your puppies, I’m sorry I couldn’t have been to you sooner... I’ve had family issues with my sister and own family.”

He called as he came over to her and her puppies, smiling down at them. He had to admit though, he did love puppies, anyones and he was very protective when it came to them.

Exactly! =P

As they were growing so much now, Princess felt that this was the perfect day to take them out to experience life away from their house. It was possible she could have made an effort to take them somewhere a bit more populated, but she thought that the beach was a very nice place and there was always the very good chance that they would be joined on the beach, anyway. It was too nice of a day to be kept inside, and as she watched them play in the sand near the churning waters, Princess felt a lightness in her heart that she did not often experience when it came to her children. Her fears and worries had not come true and she was nothing like Tokyo Chance, but it did not mean she did not think of it often. She was constantly aware of the frightening possibility.

A figure in the distance caught her attention and for a moment she was wary and alert, her eyes flitting between the three playing puppies and the figure in the distance, but she relaxed almost immediately. Of all the members of Cour des Miracles, she considered Niro to be her closest friend, besides Haven of course. Perhaps that did not say much, as she did not have many friends to begin with, but she was very fond of the Huntsman and enjoyed his company. The pretty young woman smiled and lifted her hand to wave as he approached. It had been some time since they had last spoken, and for once, she was not crying when he found her. It was a welcome change. The puppies looked to him with interest as he approached from the horizon, but Robin quickly ended that by pouncing on her brother and their games began again.

"Hi Niro," she greeted, looking up to him from her spot on the blanket. "It's good to see you, sit with me. They are Linden Aatte, Robin Aatte, and Felicity Chance," she said, though the puppies were more interested in playing in the damp sand than watching the adults talk. "What kind of issues?"

As Niro moved closer he caught the attention of the pups and Princess. He was in no way cautious, as Princess was his friend but it seemed the pups were slightly scared of him. This only lasted until one of the pups pounced on the other. Princess introduced each on and Niro couldn’t help but feel she got rather lucky. Three healthy pups was great. He turned to her when she asked about his issues.

Nothing bad, rather actually pretty good... though some circumstances... My sister is pregnant... though the beast that got her that way seems to have turned his back on her... and Amaranth is pregnant as well.

It seemed like it was the time for breeding. Two of the females he knew were pregnant, though Orin might have had her puppies by now. She did say she would tell him if she did... and Princess and a few of the miracles pack women just had puppies. He was glad his own children would have other’s to play with. He sat down, trying to hide the slight worry that came over his face. He wanted this to be a good meeting. His worries were his own, and she had her hands full. He watched the pups rough housing. He longed to see how good of a father he would be once his new pups were here, where he could be around them.

They look healthy. And quite happy. They have great parents to take care of.

Niro said distantly, a happy smile on his face, though it was small. He couldn’t see how his children would be as happy if they had a father like him. Yes he was berating himself but he had a reason. The pups he already had were either gone... or hated him with every fiber of their being.

It was much more common that Niro found her in some sort of tizzy and spent his time comforting her than for it to be any such opposite encounter. The Huntsman seemed to be a much more stable individual than the young Lady Chance. This was not mere speculation in her mind, but simply a fact. Now, though, he seemed down and it bothered her so. He was the closest thing to a friend that she really had in the pack and she was loathe to see him with a distant air about him. She listened aptly as he spoke, golden eyes narrowing slightly. Her own father had raped her mother, or so Tokyo had told her, and then left. Princess had never even seen Raphael, and she only knew what he looked like because of her mother’s explanation for how she treated her only living son. Buttface, or Ares as he later coined himself, had looked just like Raphael and that was a bad thing.

Princess had never met Niro’s daughters, though she had seen the one living in the Miracles pack during the snow storm when she and her father and her father’s mate had been rescued and brought back to the hotel. She knew of his daughters, but they were not exactly… real in her mind. They were figures of his life that she knew of, but did not know. Personally, she blamed the mother for the way that the girls had affected Niro. She did not know the mother personally, but Niro was a good man and he was a better father, she suspected. If his daughter was not happy with him, as she had seemed at the hotel, it was because of the mother, not him.

“That must be exciting, though, that you’re going to have more puppies and be an uncle. How is Amaranth feeling?” she asked, but then she paused for a mere moment. “And how did her parents take the news?” It was common knowledge that Vigilante was not really Amaranth’s father, but Princess didn’t even know who was, and as scandalous as the bit of news might be, it was more easily said that the King was her father. He certainly acted the part very well, and she supposed that was what actually mattered, not the blood that ran in her veins. Princess thought back to when Niro had told her of becoming Amaranth’s mate and how the King and his mate had not been pleased because of her young age. This was probably even more of an issue for them if it was the age that bothered them.

The young Lady Chance beamed with pride and love, watching her son and daughters play in the damp sand. They were absolutely perfect, a wonderful blend of their mother and father. “Haven takes care of us,” she said with a smile. Niro knew of her concerns about motherhood, and he had been the one to remind her that Haven would never allow her to be like Tokyo. Knowing that had helped, and she knew that Haven was even happier now that he was a father. Her mate was a family man; it was the way he was supposed to be.

Niro was glad Princess was taking this much better than Vigilante, he’d had enough with the yelling and accusing. He smiled at her words. It was not a very happy smile, but one full of fear for the future. He wasn’t sure he should have anymore. He had been a horrible father to his daughters already. Now he would have more children to be a horrible father to. He hadn’t made his mind up that he would. He would try with all his might to be better, but then it felt so unfair to his daughters, especially to Maggie who was here, but she never gave him the chance to make anything up to her. Her happy little demeanor when her mother had her was all but gone.

“Ayita accepted it well enough, Amaranth was the one to tell her, but uh... I know i may have to stay clear of Vigilante for a while.”

Niro rubbed his cheek avoiding Princess’ eyes. He was certain he was not on Vigilante’s happy list right now, not after the outburst the man had made when Niro gave him the news, he supposed it was better going on him rather than Amaranth who had enough stress right now. Remembering she’d asked about Amaranth he spoke.

“She’s... she’s confused I think, scared, and excited a bit too, it’s hard to tell sometimes.”

His voice was slightly distant. He wasn’t sure how she felt, and he knew he should, but how could he? When her moods were changing every few minutes, and that was bad even for her, who’d always had mood swings. He did give a genuine smile when she spoke about Haven taking care of them all.

“And I think you all take good care of him as well.”

Niro said. It was good that some were having a happily ever after. He knew she was going to be a good mother. She did seem to be doing such a good job, chuckling a little as the pups were being pups. He wondered absently how his would look, how they would act. He knew that even though he had daughters, each one had been different. Maggie used to be so out going and very happy... that was until she came to live with him. Maybe it was those that lived with him that turned dark? His happy look turned distant once again.

I'm sorry. D:

The young Lady Chance chuckled a bit at her friend's statement, though she knew it was not much to laugh at. Vigilante was the King of their pack, and if Niro felt he had to avoid him for now... Well, that wasn't really a laughing matter. "I'm sure he'll come around," she said, turning her pretty bright gaze to look out at the ocean near her playing puppies. Niro had a lot on his plate, but her friend was strong and he was a smart, good wolf. Princess knew everything would be fine for him, it just would take a bit of time.

Princess remembered all too well the nervousness she had felt when finding out she was pregnant, the fears and worries she had been afflicted with. She could easily imagine what Amaranth was going through, especially because Princess had been older and she had been with Haven much longer than the Hunstman and his mate had been together. She beamed at the words he spoke, glad that he saw it that way. "Is there anything else on your mind?" she asked, looking to him with inquisitive eyes. Niro seemed to be deep in thought and a bit distracted, and she suspected he had a lot on his mind.

Niro was not so sure of Princess's words, but he sure hoped that she was right in the end. If he came around he'd be able to show Vigilante he meant what he'd said, that he would stick to Amaranth, take care of their children, secure there family, until he was as old as time.

"I sure hope he will."

His respons came out, he looked over her own children as her eyes went to them. They were adorable and the play of the innocent was just a sight to behold. He smiled a little when Princess asked the question he knew she would ask, and he dreaded it. Closing his eyes he sighed.

"Well yes... I'm afraid... Like you, but I already know how bad of a father I am, look at my girls, Look how Maggie turned out."

Niro said, he didn't look at princess but he stared out to sea, angry with himself, and how he knew how bad of a father he was, he wanted to be the father that the girls had wanted but he failed miserably, and his girls were gone, including the one that lived in his house with him, though he still tried to talk to her, she would have nothing of it, as though she blamed him for her mother leaving and her staying here, he didn't know why though, it had been Maggie's choice... hadn't it?? Whatever the case may be, she hated him and right now that was all that mattered.
