For most kittens, going to a new home was a marvelous adventure: to explore, play, and be loved. Elle was no longer a kitten, but she’d yet to be adopted into a forever-home, so when the day finally came she felt as excited and nervous as she did in her smaller days. The carrier her new owner brought her home in was far too small and concealing her from her new world, making the young feline even more anxious.
Finally her owner set the carrier down and opened the bars. Curious, but cautious, Elle padded out onto a soft floor and immediately looked down to inspect it. She’d never walked on carpet before. What a wonderful furry hou

Elle and Mias Chapter 126
Elle woke up alone with the sun as she’d grown accustomed to, but seeing as at least once a week the twins crawled in with her, she was a bit concerned when they weren’t with her. She slipped her feet into her slippers and grabbed a night robe to censor her nightgown as she searched around the room and then hurried to the hall. “Darcy? Lucy?”
While checking other rooms, she found herself at Mias’ and taking a deep breath, reluctantly knocked loudly, knowing he probably wasn’t up by now.
“What is it?” She heard him grunt from inside.
“I can’t find the children,” she told him,

Helga always had a strange way of showing her affection for her younger sister, usually with vigorous neglect, but that was not to be the case this time around. The aerial commander took her time flying down from the northlands much to her chagrin, but the cloth bundle she carried in her talons required a great deal of care with handling. She only had a little further to go now before she’d finally be rid of such baggage.
Within the forest, Elle had settled down for a cup of tea with her two dearest friends while Fionos played with the children and Berenos was out performing his scouting duties. The spring air was warm enough for the t

Fionos had a bit of growth spurt over the past winter, gaining half a foot in height as well as another prong to his horns. His face gradually began to lengthen and the spots on his cheeks had faded significantly since last season. He knew he couldn’t avoid growing up, but he was obviously wary of it given the amount of time he spent fussing in front of the mirror each morning.
“You’ll develop a complex,” Berenos warned him.
“I think I already have,” Fionos sighed and lowered his ears. “Do you think I’m still cute?”
“…What?”
“I accept the reality that I’m

“Mmm! Mmmmm! Mmm!” Darcy Dormaeus seemed to be on the precipice of an important milestone as he sat with his sister and mother amidst their toys on the carpet of Elle’s room. It was the seventh day of the week, her day to take a break from both Mias and Elias, but as Darcy’s babbling continued, she wondered if he would finally utter his first word and if his fathers should be present.
The twins were now nine months of age with their personalities becoming more apparent. Darcy was a usually cheerful baby who’d taken over being the noisy one while Lucy was rather quiet, except for when she cried. Both displayed a

Elle softly hushed Lucy and Darcy until their crying ceased and they fell back asleep. Heaving a silent sigh of relief, she stroked their heads simultaneously, wishing them sweet dreams that hopefully would not be disturbed again.
Mias stood in the doorway to the room, quietly observing for the time being. It was obvious her children now held the highest priority and all thoughts of romance had fleeted to allow her to focus on mothering, but the babes were growing quickly and wouldn’t always need such close nurturing. They couldn’t be her excuse to avoid him and Elias forever, and in Mias’ opinion, for the little twins&rsqu

Hilda sighed as only a woman in longing could. It’d been two months since Elle gave birth to Darcy and Lucy and being the quick learner that she was, Hilda found herself not being called upon as often as she would have liked. To pass the time, she helped patrol the woods with Abernos and his brothers, but being the sole female in their quaint little family (since Helga returned to Noric shortly after the ceremony) made her feel lonesome at times. Loneliness made her think of Elle, and Elle made her think about babies, and babies made Hilda’s natural maternal instincts flutter, and so she sighed again.
“Are you alright?&rdqu
