Faile was starting to come to a realization.
She wasn't sure yet, but her girth was surely growing thicker, wasn't it? True, while she was filling out and growing sleek and strong, she rather thought her belly was a bit bigger than what good food warranted. She turned her head in the dark den to poke her nose at her stomach, and winced at the tenderness.
Well, she might as well warn Jaxom of the possibility. "Jaxom...?" she called out softly, jade eyes glancing around for her mate.

The tawny and carrot colored male had rised several hours earlier and, ruled by hunger and a kindling desire to satisfy his mate, Jaxom had gone off in a small hunting expedition. Both he and Faile certainly needed something to jumpstart their appitite and, with some luck, the beta had managed to catch two plump rabbits who had no doubt been well prepared for the winter season and perfect for a decent breakfast.
Trotting with glee as his orange tipped tail swayed merrily behind him and his emerald eyes narrowed towards the small den site that was tucked away within the hills and guarded by offside brush, Jaxom's ears suddenly perked forwards as his mate softly called for him.
"Yes, love," he spoke as best he could as his jaws were muffled by the two hares.
Padding inside, the male took several steps as he gently placed down the rabbits before his mate. A warm, sweet smile curled upon his maw as he lowered his head to plant a tender kiss upon her maw and rise upwards to nibble delicately upon her hear. "Morning Faile," he greeted with a soothing rumble, "I thought you might be hungry so I brought you something to eat." Settling upon his haunches beside her, Jaxom slinked his forepaws forwards and sunk low onto his stomach.
Nestling against his mate, the beta leaned his head against hers. "How are you this morning?"

Faile rumbled happily, nipping up at Jaxom's jaw, her tail thumping lightly against the ground. "Why, I am indeed hungry," she said, smoothly pulling a rabbit to her and laying it open with relish. She was silent for a few moments as she took the edge off of her hunger, before taking a deep breath. "And...maybe pregnant too. But I'm not sure yet."
Green eyes flicked towards her mate, a little nervously. How would he react?

A slight blush overtook the males cheeks as he smirked. The thought of having Faile as his mate and eternal companion made his heart swell! She was his, and he was hers; together they were to start a new life alongside one another as well as face whatever trials and hardships came their way. Snaking his jaws forwards and dragging a rabbit to sit in front of him, Jaxom gnawed at the hares stomach and tore a small piece from it.
The taste of fresh meat appealed highly to the tawny and carrot colored male as finding such winter prizes were rare. The fat of the rabbits were rich and it was nutrients that would be well needed by both wolves.
"Well, I'm glad that I can soothe you're hunger love," he softly spoke as he turned to his mate and drew his head across her neck in a tender and loving display of affection, "and you'll need as much food as you can if you're pregnant-"
The words suddenly halted and Jaxom's emerald orbs seemed to widen. Wait- did Faile just say she might be pregnant? His maw seemed to drop slightly as he withdrew his head from across her neck and brought his eyes to level with those of his mates.
"Preg-pregnant?" He knitted his brows as the word seemed to stumble even within his train of though. Faile was, perhaps, pregnant? Jaxom thought that this was something that would never happen- something that was a sure thing for Damu, his elder brother, to obtain and have his own family to raise but Jaxom? He may be a father? The tawny and carrot colored male could not be angry at such a thing as, for so long, he yearned to one day have a family of his own. This certainly was the start of a new life for he and his mate.
"We could be parents," he chuckled softly as he drew his head closer, nuzzling his forehead against Failes, "and you, love, will be the perfect mother." Drawing his muzzle down as he touched noses with her, Jaxom sighed softly and slumped his shoulders.
"If you are pregnant, we might have to cut back on bringing sexy back for a while," he smirked, licking her nose with upmost gentleness.

Playfully Faile nipped at his nose, eyes gleaming mischeivously. "Well yes, we would...but only temporarily, you know." Rumbling with affection, she nuzzled her mate fondly. "But it could become interesting if this happens every time," she commented with a laugh. "We'd have no need of others to make a pack."

If Faile was indeed pregnant, Jaxom's conquest of actually managing to bring sexy back and his strong magnatisim woud be- well, a bit stifled none the less. Yes, it would be temporary but having to wait so long until he could swing back into action and let his wild passions consume he and his mate was a bit dissapointing.
Who on their first attempt actually manages to get their mate pregnant?
Jaxom's ears fell against his head. He was caught between excitement with the possibility of being a father as well as not being able to dabble in pleasure. "I just don't want it to pass by so slow," the male whined, playfully as he pawed at Faile's face. "How did we manage to nail it our first time?"
Rumbling low as a sweet, loving smile curled upon his maw, Jaxom chuckled softly as he buried his muzzle into his mates fur.
"We would create out own pack. And you and I, Faile, would be the Alpha's and our children would have a lineage of greatness. Of course, I think my maximum capacity for kids reaches, oh, four to six? We'd have quite the pack."

Faile laughed, eyes bright with mischeif. "Was it the first time, or the second, third, fourth..." She trailed off, a wicked grin upon her maw. "I think I lost count, and unless you've got a better memory, I think you did too." The black she-wolf nipped at her mate's ruff lovingly. "Of course, increasing the strength of this pack is good, or at least I'd hope so."

His maw was quick to retort with a grin of his own, one that was somewhat on the verge of being sheepish and slightly hesitant to say the least. Faile had dealt him, perhaps, a compliment but hopefully he wasn't the only one who had just thrown the long forsaken title of "virgin" away.
"This, love," he began with a soothing rumble, one that was calm and collected, "was my first believe it or not. I've never been too keen on being too promiscuous and have always held a strong distate for a 'one night stand' deal." Nuzzling her with upmost affection as his emerald eyes gazed into those of his jet black wolfess's, Jaxom smirked. "For one so experienced, I'm flattered that you would have thought of me so skilled. But I must have done something right to bring you on cloud nine."
It was true and there was no sense in lying to his beloved mate about his lack of experience. But hearing her compliment him and mistake him for one that seemed so knowledgeable on such things could only make Jax grin from ear to ear.
Drawing his muzzle upwars and licking her tenderly, the tawny and carrot colored male smiled. "Oh, our pack would be so strong that every pack will know us," he chuckled softly as he nuzzled her cheeks.
"We will be unstoppable."

Faile laughed and nipped his ear. "I meant for us, love, not with anyone else. Silly male!" Her jade eyes twinkled with amusement as her tail thumped against the ground. "But you were wonderful all the same. Who would have thought such a chance meeting, such a twist of fate would lead to this? In love, happy, jesting and talking of packs." A suddenly sheepish look came over her face, and were the shewolf not as dark as night one could have sworn she was blushing at speaking such thoughts aloud.
Her ears flicked forward as she sought to change the subject, if only slightly. "Speaking of packs, when might I meet yours? Or do you have ambitions of striking out and creating your own pack, love?"

Jaxom could only bear a sheepish, wide spread grin across his maw as he nuzzled into his mates soft, jet black fur and rumbled with great pleasure. "Could have sworn we were speaking of a different subject," he chuckled, his carrot tipped tail thumping merrily behind him as he stretched his neck to the side and planted a tender kiss upon her maw.
Tilting his head, the tawny and carrot colored male nodded his head. It was strange to think that for so long he had been alone; for so long he had lost contact with Damu and could never stand to face him. Oh how his heart ached! He was not afraid nor ran away from being accountable for an apology (which he desperately needed to do still) but it was his elder brother who had a short temper and, of course, the fear that another physical attack would erupt. Jaxom didn't want to fight- he knew what he did was wrong when he found Damu and Taima. He wanted to put the past behind him and finally make amends with his own flesh and blood.
"Certainly not I," Jaxom commented as he knitted his brows. "But when I saw you it was strange. My heart felt as if it would thrust from out of my chest and it took a while for me to actually say something. Faile, you are the only wolfess whom I'd ever give my heart to and such a decision I'll never regret."
At the thought of packs, the tawny and carrot hued male pursed his lips slightly, trying to decipher what exactly he was to do. There seemed so many options and, as for the Tian Tang pack, he wasn't too sure.
"We can meet them whenever you like, love. We could even go today and meet them. But as far as creating our own pack, we'll see. If I'm at wits ends on what we should do then perhaps we should begin a new pack together."

Faile rumbled lovingly, nuzzling her mate's ruff. "Nor shall I," she declared. "I've had enough of wandering, my only companion this human bauble left amongst the ruins of my pack. I want to be home. And for me, now, home is where we are." She laughed sheepishly. "I'd like to meet them, but do you think it should be now, or later, after the pups are born?" If there were any, she said mentally to herself. She wasn't sure yet.

Smiling warmly as he nuzzled deepr into her jet, black pelt, Jaxom rumbled with pure content as he nodded his head. "Then let us go home; let us go to the Tian Tang packlands and not wait. Even if we don't have puppies, we will have a true home where we can sooner or later raise our children in."
Laying his head across the back of his neck, the tawny and carrot colored male grinned. "Let's go now," he rumbled as he stretched his neck upwards and nibbled her ear.

Faile smiled softly, though her eyes were anxious. She hoped she would like, or at least be able to stomach, the other members of Jaxom's pack. The jet she-wolf consoled herself with the thought that at the very least, she and Jaxom could strike out on their own, although if there were puppies on the way that would need to wait. At least until they were old enough to contribute to hunting, anyways. She held little illusion about the pair's ability to feed both themselves and a litter of growing pups. "Yes..." she said finally. "But...how long has it been since you've seen one of your fellow pack members, out of curiosity?"

His ears flickered as a slight frown crept upon his maw. How long had it been since he had seen his pack members? The tawny and carrot colored male bit his lower lip and stifled a small whine. It must have been at least a month- Kouji had asked him to locate others and recruit members who were willing to join the fight for freedom. What was Kouji and Nessa doing? Were they alright? Were they safe? What about the other members? Jaxom didn't know.
Nestling closer to his mate, he buried his head within her side as he sighed softly. "I-I haven't seen them in about a month...or even longer," he stumbled, the pain of such words gnawing upon his heart at the thought of such a realization. The delicate tears that trailed from his emerald eyes could not be held back- no, he couldn't hold them back. He missed his pack and the thought of not knowing their status and well-being pained him greatly.
"But," he spoke again, more confidence within his voice, "if we go back there, it will be a safehaven for the pups and, perhaps, if there is not a future there, we can venture elsewhere and begin a new life once our pups are old enough." Perhaps there was still hope that Tian Tang would be the perfect place for where his family can reside. There was still a chance but, at this point, he didn't know for sure.
"There are options on where we can go, Faile, but we just need to decide which card we will play."

Faile nodded, deciding to drop the subject for now. He was right, and in any case worrying about it wasn't going to help. She nuzzled him sympathetically, giving his muzzle a few light kisses. "I'm sorry," she said softly. "I guess we shouldn't be worrying about it yet, huh?" She snuggled closer, laying her head across Jaxom's shoulders. "Any way it goes, we'll be fine. We're strong, and our pups will be too."
