strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
AND I'M HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLF
“Momma, I'm fine, really,” no matter how much of a lady and an alphess Titania had grown into, she could not help but call Orin 'momma.' Mother or even mom were far more lady like, like what they said in the tales by Shakespeare that Orin had named her after, but when around her mom Titania was nothing but a puppy again – no matter the months spent as an alphess, besides the fact that she now had a mate and they were expecting their first litter, she would always be a puppy when around her mother.
Orin insisted she wasn't. At first the Tundra woman was elated to see her daughter when she arrived with Jiva for her visit in Cour des Miracles, but after just a few hours with her she began to be sure something was wrong. Titania was too energetic, she didn't look right, the growth of puppies in her belly was just a little off. Orin knew nothing about medicine, and would make a horrible midwife, so she insisted that her daughter be seen by someone within the Court who was capable of making sure she was alright. So the same afternoon that Titania had arrive in the land of Miracles, Orin escorted her lupus daughter to the home of Ayita Catori, her King's mate. “She is like family. She is your aunt's mother, Titania. I would trust her with my life, and I trust her with yours and the life of my future grand puppies.” Orin reassured Titania as they walked down the path, Mother in Optime and adult-child in Lupus.
“This is silly. Everything is alright, I just want to rest. I'm tired,” she promised her mother, though she still went with her. Maybe after Ayita had seen her she could tell her mother that she was alright and she would stop worrying. Titania wondered if she would be like this to her children. She promised herself that she wouldn't, that when they were grown pups she would treat them as such, but somewhere in the back of her mind she knew that wasn't true.
“Hopefully she will be near the Hotel, or else we might have to go searching...” It did not take long to reach the hotel, and before them Titania saw a familiar old sight. She had not spent long in the Court, yet still she remembered this place from when she was a pup – the wrought iron fence that stood before them, encasing the hotel garden, and beyond were the steps to the Court's central hub.
Orin opened the gate for her and Titania trotted inside, her tail curled and her head held high. She would not disrespect anyone in the Court, yet still she carried herself like the proud alphess and expectant mother that she was.
“Ayita? Orin called out as they walked up the porch steps. “Ayita, are you around? We need your help.”
Titania sighed and rolled her eyes at the tone in Orin's voice. Anything to appease momma...
