Aife had just given birth to a litter of four pups, all healthy and eager to explore the world around them. As the alpha watches over her babies, she itches to hunt with the rest of the pack and run free again. One day, she exits the den to to take break from mothering, when she hears a wail.
She followed the sobs, maneuvering through the protruding branches and dense snow.
Something buzzed in her mind as she approached the source of the sound. Aife was unsure of what, but she couldn't help the excitement that bubbled inside of her. Whatever was causing this sound...it needed her. It was calling out for her.
She was it's only hope.
And there it was, saddled in a bunch of bloodied blankets, it's eyes misty as tears rolled down it's cheeks.
A human baby.
