[color=#DB7093][I][center]Mhmm, why am I not surprised? Is this how you are going to be with our human children, too?[/center][/I][/color]

Cassiopeia is smiling despite herself. After their talk of children and Cassi's past, she had dreamed that night.

She was walking through the Highlands, purple heather adoring the hills like the stars in the sky. She crested a hill to see a giant willow, standing completely alone. A crow sat below, barely visible within the swaying branches. It called out when it saw Cassi, grabbed a branch from the tree, and circled her three times before dropping the branch.

Cassi had woken with a start, waking Nic along with her. His nature had him caring for her, but Cassi wanted to sleep. In the morning, though, she told him what she had dreamt. The crow, a messenger from the other side, and the willow tree, a symbol of new beginnings and fertility. It had been a blessing from her ancestors, and something Cassi took straight to heart. 

Cassi's doorbell rang, pulling her from her thoughts. Wayland instantly bounded over, scratching and meowing until Cassi opened the door. The cat instantly tried crawling up Nic's leg. 

[color=#DB7093]”Wayland, honestly. He's going to think I beat you.”[/color] Cassi shooed the cat inside before smiling at her boyfriend. [color=#DB7093]”Good morning, handsome.”[/color]

Caden chuckled and lifted Nero. He set them on their desk and stood. [color=#006400]”What are you going to do when it's time to close the pool for the winter?”[/color] he asked, but was completely thrilled with the idea Nero proposed nonetheless.

[color=#B0C4DE]”Mmm, verbal promises can be broken,”[/color] he declared. With the sleep now cleared from Avery's eyes, he was able to take in Kimiko fully, and smiled. He slid his hand from her wrist into her hand, and pulled it close, wrapping around it like a pillow. 

[color=#B0C4DE]”Pack bond. I may have told him to fuck off once or twice…”[/color] Avery's irritability was nothing new. If he didn't get a good workout or a shift every once in a while, the agitation built up until he exploded on the nearest person. Caden had been doing his best to keep Avery busy until the point of exhaustion, but the lack of intimacy with his mate was starting to show. 

Avery hadn't had sex with Kimiko since their fight, with good reason, but it didn't mean Avery craved it any less.
