A Joyous Event At The Infinite Eclipse Pack
Over at the Infinite Eclipse Pack House, Cassie -- Jake's mate -- had just given birth to an alpha wolf pup. The little girl was the couple's first child. As the custom demanded, the parents and the children should spend an intimate period of four weeks adapting to the challenges of becoming parents to an infant.
Jake was thus momentarily released from his tasks as the Beta of the pack and took on a new job as the father of a little girl. One of his tasks was to arrange for visits from pack members who would love to share in on the joyous event. Cassie, who had just given birth, was naturally very protective of her baby girl. Although she tried to suppress her beastly nature at all times, it often manifested in form of an unexpected snarl whenever she saw someone extending their paws to touch her little girl.
A little squeal from the baby girl was enough to set Cassie ablaze.
