Smokes POV:

I woke up, and saw raven still asleep, she looked so peaceful while sleeping.

I started nudging her with my tail. She opened her eyes and yawned,
"What now?"

"I was thinking of going hunting, are you fine staying here by yourself?"

"Why can't I come?"

"Well...incase we ran into pack member...they think your dead, remember?"

"Didnt they always think that" she muttered

I sighed and looked at the disgusting carcass fox.

We definitely needed more food..food that actually taste good.

"Just stay here" I murmured

"And if they find me?" She asked

"Howl." I said simply

"okay whatever 'mate'..."

I trotted out of the log, I ran past the trees and went out for a hunt.
I didn't realize that most prey wasn't out at this time until I saw a burrow of tired rabbits, and a nest of birds.

I stalked toward the burrow and quickly grabbed one, the most plump one.

I heard scrambling behind me.
I turned around quickly and saw Dyl and Catty.

"You told him?" I asked

Catty rolled her eyes,
"We can trust him dumbo..."

"Fine...why are you here?"

Catty had a look of worry in her eyes,
"Look...what were doing is dangerous, and if it continues, someone will eventually find out... And not only will you and Raven be getting hunted...we will be too."

I suddenly felt pale as I thought about it....but I can't return there, it's too late.

"I can't go back"

"We know that...we're just warning you" dyl said, his tail flicking a bit.

I looked around,

"Okay...thanks for the warning."

Then they left.
I was trotted back to the center and dropped the rabbit, raven quickly ran out the log and ate some of it along with me.

I kept thinking of what Catty and Dyl told me...I couldn't tell Raven, mostly because I want her to feel as though she's safe, not where she and others are endangered because of me and her.

"You know...it's kinda like I'm safer with you here....but that pack makes nothing safe" she finally broke the silence

"I...always liked you and always wanted you to be safe."

"Ever since I met you, you were like...the nicest to me...even when we were pups."

It was silence but then I decided to say something outrageous.

"Raven...would you like to be my forever mate?"

She looked at me for awhile but then grinned,
"Yes! Yes of course!"

Catty's POV:

I couldn't help but being nervous...if any wolf happened to decide to spy on us then we're screwed, or if Dyl opens his big fat mouth which I'm pretty sure wouldn't happen, otherwise I would beat him up like no tomorrow.

I turned my head to see that Bravery and Dust were speaking, like always, but we're staring at me A LOT. wow I never knew I was that cute.

Whatever their speaking of, isn't good.

Dust POV:

I looked at my son, bravery.

"Do you believe Catty?"

"Nope...bunch of bull sh-"

"Language!"

"Sorry..."

We sat thinking...until bravery broke the silence.

"How do we get her to tell?"

"Spy?"

"Terrorize?"

"Kill?"

"Imprison?"

"I have an idea! And it'll happen 12 months from now"

We sorted the plan and grinned like evil weirdos.

Smokes POV:

I ran after Raven playfully.
I finally caught up to her and knocked her down gently.

She hit her paw against my muzzle that now has snow on it.

We continued to do this over and over until we got so tired we fell asleep right in the clearing.

Ravens POV:

Do I like smoke? No.
Do I LOVE smoke? Yes.

I snuggled next to him.
He muttered things in his sleep like,
"Beautiful Raven"

I forced myself to go back to sleep.

Many months later, about 12.

I sat down with smoke.
"The prey pile is high, and it seems as though we'll be safe forever."

I grinned and trotted over to him.

"I have something to tell you..." I murmured as I stuffed myself with food.

He looked over at me, and nodded.

"I'm....going to have pups..."

His jaw dropped,
"Really?!"

"Yes, actually um....I should have them in a few days because I kinda decided to tell you once it's been 9 months"

"Oh wow."

He laughed a bit, same with me though.

I lay down and rest.

Is it just me or is it that we usually always sleep, Eat, Hunt, Play, and talk ALL THE TIME.

Within months we've been avoiding patrols, finding enough food , and staying alive.

As of now, I feel like I've been more lethargic than an ant eater.
But I do have pups on the way, right? So therefore I have an excuse.

I mentally was happy but nervous too.

I yawned and fell asleep, but I woke up feeling this blood screaming pain.

Oh right, the pups....wait...I think their coming.

"Smoke!!"

He woke up tired eyed.

"Wh...what"

"The pups are coming!!"

He looked shocked, scared, and happy all at the same time.

But we both looked up when we saw some unpleasant visitors.

"Oh no..."

~~~
Oh no is right, who do you think the unpleasant visitors are?
