Females Can Have Multiple Mates

Ember saw an elf woman with her child playing in the flower field. The woman was wearing the usual clothes of the elf clan while the child was wearing clothes that the white tiger clan members wore. The child sure was a white tiger as he didn't have pointed ears like his elf mother and neither did he look like her. 

"Watch out, son. You will hurt yourself," the woman shouted as she watched her son running and jumping around the field happily. 

"I won't, mother," a child replied who looked like a human child of age of four to five.

"Seems like her mate is a white tiger," Ember mumbled. 

But then a man came to them and lifted a child. "Father," the child clung on the man's neck and asked cheerfully, "You are back, father?"

"Hmm," the man replied as he patted the child's head gently.

"Will father play with me?" he asked. 

The man nodded and put the child down only to be dragged away by him to the flower field.
