A small orange fae trotted happily to the center of the pitch black clearing. She seemed tired and she was coughing heavily. As she pranced her swollen body swayed side to side. She seemed happy enough as she came from the nursery and headed towards the middle of the clearing. Ever since she had met the love of her life she had become more.. hmm... wolf-like. Before she was was more like a mere shadow among many shadows. She was like a darkened spirit with a paw in both the world of the living and that of the dead. Riley had revived her. She was finally alive. He had shone the light on the shadow and she had become a little piece of sunshine dust. She smiled broadly thinking of her mate.
This happy moment lasted way to short for her liking for about seventeen feet from the nursery a wave of pain swept over her and a high-pitched screech escaped her lips unwillingly. Her fur bristled and she dropped gently to her side,

A tired and rather bedraggled-looking Annelise emerged from the healer den at the sound of Dashina's cry. Her tail flicked and she hurried back into the den, selecting some thyme and chamomile before swiftly dashing back out. She gaz Dashina's fur a comforting lick. "It's time, dear," she woofed reassuringly. She pushed the thyme and chamomile over to the birthing queen.
Riley struggled to stand, still coughing and heaving retchedly. Drops of scarlet stained his muzzle, but he ignored it. All that mattered was getting to his mate. He limped unsteadily across the clearing, landing in a heap a foot away from Dashina. He dragged himself to her side, affection and stubborn determination lit his amber optics.

She calmed little as she weakly ate the herbs. She coughed it up unwillingly and winced. She licked it back up holding another cough back. A tangy liquid grew in her throat but she held it back. She breathed unsteadily the tangy, scarlet leaking onto the ground.

Riley looked at her, tired eyes worried and loving. He could scarcely believe he was about to be a father...
Annelise smiled kindly at Dashina. "Breathe deeply now, in and out..."

She shivered violently and with a yelp and a squeal a dark brown and cream male sat beside her. Her ears twitched and with loss of breath she said, "Kippy" and shivered violently once more. Next a silver pup sat next to the male. Dashina trembled then with a breathless voice gasped, "Luna." She shivered once again violently and one more pup was born. A beautiful pup with the identical fur of Dashina's mate, Riley. The pup was a small femora, and she poked her nose around blindly towards her mother's milk. "Palenia" she gasped and collasped.

Annelise praised Dashina softly. "We need to get you to the nursery, Dashina. Riley and I can handle the pups and get a nest ready for you. We'll come back and help you walk, alright?" Annelise promised.
Riley smiled lovingly down at Dashina and his pups, licking her cheek with affection. "They're beautiful...just like you," he whispered.
Kippy squirmed towards his mother, feeling blindly for warmth.

Dashina sighed weakly. "The light of my fire... my love... is you." she smiled a weak smile and she curled in a tight ball. Painful. But worth it.

Riley arranged a nest in the nursery, then helped Annelise carefully carry the pups into the warm, cozy nesting area. Annelise and Riley stood on either side of Dashina. "Whenever you're ready," Annelise told her.

She shivered and slipped her feet underneathe her. She then pushed in a feeble attempt to rise. Her legs felt weak and immobile. She tried a less feeble attempt, managing to raise into a staulking position.

Annelise and Riley did their best to support Dashina on her way to the nursery. The atmosphere of the warm, cozy den was one of comfort and family. Riley smiled down at Dashina and his pups, proud and full of love.

"Kiss me." The feeble bearer ordered randomly, but firmly. She was panting heavily on the ground, and she had grabbed all three pups and put them next to her milk.
OCC: I have to fight the urge to make her break out into song. "OHOH KISS ME!! UNDER THE MILKY TWILIGHT!!" XP
