Extra Special - Part 2

RETH

Reth was still having a fatherly moment when Elreth shifted in his arms, back to human form. She remained sitting in his arms, but was much smaller as a one year old human than she was as a yearling cub. She put both her pudgy little hands to his face and smiled again. "Da! Morn, Da!"

"Good morning."

"Wi oo me de yum w'Da?"

Reth blinked. He had no idea what she was saying, but Elia laughed.

"She wants to know if you'll have breakfast with her."

Reth's brows popped up. He had no idea how his clever mate had figured that out, but he was glad to hear it. "I will eat with you this morning, Elreth. And after, I have a special treat for you."

"Oooo, twee? Twee?"

He nodded. "Mama Aymora is coming to take you for a visit today. Would you like that?"
