I woke with a start. I looked around the cave wearily. My pup, who had started teething the day before, had tried teething on my ear. My mate, Coryn, who Myrrglosh, the pup, had climbed on, grabbed the pup by his scruff. My other pup, Maudie, was curled next to me. When I stood, she yawned a wide, and toothy little yawn.

"Good morning, darling Maudie," I murmur.

"Ow," I hear and glance over at Coryn and Myrr. Coryn had cuffed Myrr's ear sharply.

"What happened with Myrr, mommy?," She asked, tilting her head to one side. Her green eyes twinkled in the early morning light.

"He's still teething," I say, "Lucky he didn't go for your tail!"

She giggled at the joke.

Myrr trotted out into the snow like nothing had even happened. I watched his shiny black pelt glitter in the sunlight. He gets his fur from me and blue eyes from both Coryn and me. Maudie is opposite, kinda. She is a dark red with amber-greenish eyes.
