[attr="class","pltxt"]Ever since the magical evening that she’d spent with Rikez, Calantha had been waiting with baited breath for…something. The fact of the matter was that the femme did not know what she was looking for in terms of her own body, though she knew enough to suspect when she began to change. She had heard about the common symptoms of femme’s who were carrying pups, and would have easily been able to identify them in anyone who was not herself. But as it was, it felt as if it was a stretch to get her hopes up. Though she’d reassured Rikez so certainty that they would be able to have a family, she’d found herself plagued by worried; what if she’d been wrong? What if something was wrong with her? What if she was only exaggerating the telltale symptoms that she experienced?
It had started more swiftly than she’d expected it to. Her appetite had first lessened, and then inevitably increased, which Calantha had reluctantly chocked up to the change in weather. More tellingly was the fatigue, though still she’d been hesitant to allow hope to swell in her heart. But then the weight gain had begun, her hips widening just slightly, her stomach beginning to bulge until it was no longer deniable. And then Calantha had practically burst with joy, her eyes alight with a new kind of happiness as she’d set to work figuring out where she would give birth, ultimately deciding upon the underground tunnels where fresh water would be near, but where she could still have her pups in a separate part of the cavern, far enough away that there was no risk of drowning.
Her symptoms had come on so swiftly that she’d been surprised. Even now her belly seemed larger than she’d expected, though she supposed it was bound to be when Rikez was so much larger than she. And already she loved them, even though she didn’t know how many pups she carried. The excitement seemed to grow just as steadily as her belly did.
The winter air was crisp and cool as she made her way through the forest, a light blanket of snow beneath her paws. Though the trees had lost their leaves, it was still beautiful to see everything covered in a layer of bright ivory. Her pace was slow, her stomach bulging noticeably as she moved, saffron eyes tracking the progress of two sparrows as they swooped and chattered overhead. After several moments she stopped, feeling the familiar ache in her bones as she slowly lowered her rump to the ground at the base of one of the tree trunks, bushy tail fanning out behind her. Everything seemed right suddenly, perfect, as if the very planets had aligned the moment her body had changed with the promise of life. As she gazed towards the clouds, a serene smile settled upon Calantha’s muzzle. Soon, she would be a mother, and alongside Rikez she would raise their pups, watching each day as they grew and flourished.
