WC:510-Permission from Raine given to PP Sophie and Boothe

The grey male walked along the familiar paths that dotted along their den site, with two very curious puppies behind him. In one hand he held a bunch of fresh march flowers, they were a mixture of several different flowers that together made a grand display, at least he thought so, little Sophie thought it was too small and Boothe could have cared less about the flowers, or the reasoning behind them. He grumbled to himself before Sophie would bat at him. Saluce just ignored him, soon the young boy would find himself doing things he never thought he’d do for the fairer sex, things that never really made any sense until he himself had someone to love but for now Saluce could only smirk at his objections.


The behemoth lead the trio toward the den, Salvador had been growing reasonably well and they had done well to erase any brainwashing his former home may had imparted on his young mind. It was good they had recovered him so young, if he had stayed long enough he could have very easily grown up with evil being imparted on him. Saluce looked back to the two young wolves, having joined him walking on two feet, Sophie herself carried a smaller handful of flowers, ones he had made sure Boothe had picked out, despite his objections. It was a valuable lesson, one he hoped he learned very well, swallowing your pride to do things for someone else, a lesson he hadn’t learned as well as he thought he had such a short time ago.


“So you two going to behave? And look after Salvador? You two are old enough now that it’s time to start giving you two some responsibility. If you do a good job we will try and find something to reward you with? “ He asked and he watched as they both went through their very different responses, he knew the young pup was in good hands but part of him wanted them to know just how important this job was.


“When X’y gets back with him, you are free to take him short distances from the den, but when it gets dark I want all three of you back to the den.” He gave Boothe a knowing look, “You better protect them too” he added with a smirk knowing that the boy would in the end puff his chest out and claim his masculinity. He had arranged all this without X’y’s knowledge, well that wasn’t entirely true, he was sure Sophie might have said something already with the way X’y looked at him earlier that day.


“Now do you two know what to do if something happens?” he said as he kneeled down in front of them, both of their little adolescence bodies shook their heads enthusiastically. “Good, have fun today, there should be some dried food in the back of the den if you get hungry.” He was trying to cover every little basis, to make sure no stone was left unturned but it was almost impossible.

Something was going to take place, that much she was aware of. Though distracted by the presence of two, now three hungry mouths with impressive appetites for excitement and attention, she managed to keep her sense of perception on high as she tended to the Wentworth family day by day. However, what was had in store for her, she did not know which kept some desirable mystery for what was to come. But there were times when the mystery was nearly spoiled by the eager tongue of the young female Sophie. The golden dame could see the news about to burst from her maw at any moment if only alone for too long, but always did the little girl keep herself quiet and attempted to busy herself with other things while the ‘mother’ of this patchwork family tended to the pup Salvador.

This day she had the little one in arms despite her previous attempts to let him roam on his own and strengthen his legs. She desired to partake in the Luperci mother’s role and cradle the small being as if he were her very own as she walked through the Valley to show the tyke around. Yes, a nice run through the verdant blades would have done better than this stroll, but it comforted her to do so, and holding the child, she felt closer to him… more connected even though they were not the same blood. It soothed her to carry him like this and suppressed the desire eating away at her to birth pups of her own. As long as she had these loving charges to care for, she was fine to wait until the due time the ancestor’s permitted.

With Salvador nestled in her arms, she returned to the Wentworth with the two of them decorated in leafs and flowers. It seemed silly to adorn oneself like this, but was none the less fun for the she-wolf and the Sadira pup. They looked quite the mess dressed in mismatched violet and red with sprigs of blue flora sticking out every which way. But they shared a happy smile which they carried back to the den until the hushed tones of a certain male morphed their smiles into curious tilts. Quietly she came upon him instructing the growing pair and couldn’t help the gentle smile that returned to her lips. “Giving them their tasks already?” she assumed, having not heard the entirety of their conversation. “I am not interrupting something am I?”

The two little pupils before him soaked in all that he spoke to them. While he guessed they would in the end defy him and do something they weren’t supposed to, it was all a part of growing up he supposed. He just hoped the important part of keeping Salvador and themselves safe wouldn’t be something they drifted from, however some mischief and games weren’t something he figured he’d be able to keep the two from doing. A soft smile encompassed his lips even as he felt the familiar presence of X’y behind him. His blues went to both of the little adults before rising back up to his full height to turn to his mistress behind him.


He gave her a smile while his hand remained behind his back, hiding those flowers for the time being. First off though he decided to eat a bit at Boothe’s pride again as he spoke.


“Look what Boothe gave Sophie today,” he said with a smirk as he turned, still carefully hiding her flowers from view so that she could see the girl holding her own hand full of flowers. Boothe however seethed a bit, before standing up straight and taking the watchful eyes like a true soldier, Saluce could only hope the boy learned to overcome his boyish pride at some point in the future. But he didn’t dwell on it long as he turned back to his prize, and like any good father figure he had to provide the example. He finally revealed the flowers he had picked for her, the hues of purple and yellows of the early spring bloom filled his paw as he raised it up to her.


“And these are for you,” he smiled. “Sophie and Boothe here, are getting their first assignment today. They are going to babysit Salvador for us tonight.” He said quickly, not wanting the flowers to be recognized as the only thing going on, but merely a gateway for the two of them. And with her so near to him already, the call to shift was already eating at him, to run with her and paw the ground. But for now he was happy to be trying to create that spark once again between them.

Somehow she had become the odd person out in this little gathering of secrets, but it did not bother her in the slightest. She rather liked seeing Saluce bond with the little ones, for it lent her a little insight into how he would treat their own pups should they be blessed with them.

She smiled as her mate set the attention on Boothe so his little fond display for his sister, all the while seeking to conceal something behind his back. The woman made quite a show to see what was behind him, going so far as to animatedly crane her neck around as if to spy around his shoulder. Eventually she placed Salvador down as his squirming was becoming too wild to not notice without reaction. The flowers that decorated his pelt fell away from his dark hide as she ran off to harass the older pups, mainly Boothe who seemed fixed on proclaiming himself Alpha of their little group. “How sweet of you Boothe,” the autumn dame praised him kindly. “You’re a wonderful brother for thinking of your sister like that.”

Her steps closer to the family were paused once Saluce revealed what was hidden behind his back, and for a moment the often articulate she-wolf was at a loss of words for what she behold. Though she and the little one had played through the flowers earlier that day, there was an indescribable warming sensation when the radiant blossoms of spring were presented to her like this. Her tail gave an awkward shiver then raised high as it waved with unbridled elation. Dulled bronze shown then in lustrous hues of amber and gold as they danced excitedly over the fragrant blooms, and then settled upon the azure hues of her mate. “Saluce… they are beautiful,” she breathed at last then gently clasped her hands around both the stems and his paws. “But…” her ears perked at this tell of an assignment for the pups. “..what are we doing tonight?” Where they not all going to spend this time together as a family?

There was nothing that made him happier than to see X’y light up with happiness. If there was any defining trait within the male it was his drive to see her happy. This was something he wanted more of, her infectious happiness was something he’d much rather see grace her beautiful form than the forlorn savage nature that had darkened her not so long ago. His tail wagged and he could hear Sophie’s pleasant little whines to their side, obviously the romantic nature of this exchange wasn’t lost on her. Her gentle touch on his hands brought forth a happy whine as his muzzle inched closer to hers. But her take on the situation was a bit different than his. This had all been planned with an effort to get his lady away from the young ones for a bit, to romance her like when they had first met… Well if you could call their first meeting a romantic endeavor.


“They are going to baby sit for us, so we can have an evening to ourselves tonight,” he said softly, as he stepped closer to her grin deepening as his very good nose started inhaling her inviting scent again. Saluce wanted to recapture her, she had always been his no matter how dumb he had been but the bond between them had grown in small steps lately, and he wanted to remind her that no other she wolf caught his eyes but her.

This romantic serenade was not lost on her, and in turn made her smile grow as she fought the childish urge to giggle with delight. One would claim that such behavior was unbecoming of an Alphess, but it could easily be contested as to what was the appropriate behavior. It was but a name and in this private setting among her family, it mattered little. And so she could behave as unconventionally to her rank as she’d like without regret and revel in the joy experienced through the bond she shared with whom she cared for.

Still fighting and failing to subdue her whines of delight she brought a paw to her muzzle in a further futile effort to subdue her elated fit. “Well, you certainly have given them a difficult job,” she teased the small lot, “but I am sure they will succeed.” Gently she extended her muzzle to touch the cool flesh of his nose in a loving tap. “But, you don’t expect them to watch the little one the entire night do you?” she lifted her knowing gaze to his excited eyes with a brow delicately arched with a mirroring smirk. Drawing her ears forward, she lowered her voice and proceeded to whisper. “They might get distracted if we are gone for too long…”

He smirked as her slightly wet nose touched his, letting his tongue slip out to grace her lips in a subtle exchange between them. Saluce grinned still as her words drifted to his ears, he had planned to come back at some point, and he really hadn’t planned on the two of them drifting off to far. At least not far enough that they couldn’t hear a small child’s howl, or still be able to respond, but far enough to allow them the privacy of a simple evening together.


“Not so late,” he whispered back knowing even if he wanted to, he couldn’t coheres her into a more long lived night. No they had too much responsibility here to deal with. Saluce threw some caution to the wind as he moved in closer to her, wrapping his free hand around her waist. Smiling he looked to the pups watching either confused or bored below them.


“Now run along you three, we won’t be too far away, and we will be back by dark,” he stated to the three young ones. They seemed to take it as their chance to run off and do what they wanted; Sophie scooped up Salvador and ran off behind her brother. Finally alone with her for the moment he quickly let his tongue snaked out and grace her lips in a much more loving lick, finally free to express his affection without judgmental eyes, as whimpers escaped his throat.
