Raven's Need (71)

Raven couldn't have been more wound up. After we made love I took her to swim in the warmth of the springs. Finally she started to relax and we talked about the last few weeks. We talked about the future and what she wanted to accomplish. We talked about everything she was worried about and everything she wanted to do in the next year. It's strange that we had been ruling over a year now.

Raven told me all about her need to be productive. She didn't feel at rest unless she had done something productive every day. Especially now we have 9 pups. She wants to show them Royals work hard and are super smart. She helps them focus on learning every single day.

Raven wants our pups in a training program. We talk about what type of program and I agree. We will start right away. They will begin training at age one. They will learn about the arts of painting and sculpture, dance, music, and reading. They will have great books read to them daily. They will be taught martial arts and kick boxing. They would learn cooking, cleaning and all domestic talent.

Our pups are young but everything can be made kid friendly. They will be taught archery, firearm safety, and fencing. They will learn to hunt, track, fish and especially safety. I want the girls to be trained just like their brothers. Samsin agreed that it was about time.

The next 9 months flew by, our pups growing strong and thriving. Raven had even been able to wean them. Now she was all mine again. The pack was so excited to meet our second born. All 7 of them. Grant and Lillian share title of first born and the second born was shared by 7.

The 4 boys and 3 girls were having a zoo party. We all had Zoo Crew on our shirts. The pack would at last see all 9 of our pups together. We were going to the Atlanta Zoo. I couldn't wait to see my pups feed the giraffes. I actually called ahead and asked if we could help feed all the animals. We could feed most of them but a few they wouldn't allow because of the danger and risk involved.

The zoo was fantastic. We ate lunch there too. Fat Matt's (the best BBQ I know) catering came to feed all 400 of us. It was so good. The pups were exhausted and Samsin took them home. They didn't even want birthday cake until later. Everyone in the pack had a great day. They piled into the busses and they too went home.

I took Raven to the Aquarium, World Of Coke and then to Sky View. Saving the ferris wheel until last was the best. She melted into me as we looked out at the spectacular views. Afterwards we went to our room at the Westin and took a shower before dinner at the Sun Dial. The glass elevator was great and then the room spinning slowly to show all the views was perfect. The food experience was a welcome change. It was at least 4 stars.

After dinner Raven melted into me, picking her up and carrying her to our room was a nice habit I had. I of course wasn't going to change just because a few people would see. No I carried her to our room and then undressed her for bed. I tucked her in and turned off all the lights. I sat watching her for a couple of hours before joining her.

We made love vigorously before leaving for the castle. Once back home we were back to work. I had enough help that at 6 I could always clock out so to speak. Raven would leave with me retiring to our personal home. Samsin would greet us with a pup report and then a flood of pups would come running.

We always had dinner as a family, then a game, movie or book. The pups enjoyed bath time. The girls to one and the boys to the other. The 4 girls returning much later than the 5 boys. The boys were messy but fast. The girls had to primp to make sure they were all beautiful.

Then all 9 pups would crawl into their twin size beds and fall asleep as Raven sang to them. The nanny (Priscilla), the manny (Christian) and Samsin all had a break from 6 until 6 because it was our job as parents to get them all to bed.

Samsin was in charge of training our pups. Christian would entertain the boys and Priscilla the girls. The girls had tea parties and dress up, as well as cooking sessions. The boys would wrestle, play with action figures and play Mario cart. Sometimes they would reverse rolls. It was adorable.

The Moon Goddess came into our bedroom and told us that it would be time for our next pup in the second year of our 7 pups. She said that she doesn't want us worried about when. She wants us to have 2 years before this pup was born. She is to have more Gypsy with a strong magic, she said that Anastasia's daughter (Fern) will come to train her at age 2. She also told us her name is Selene Blair.

She told us the name means moon battlefield. It sounds scary in a way but at the same time strong. I plan to enjoy this year given to us before another pup. Our pups will be 3 and 4 when Selene arrives. She will be our third born and our tenth pup. Five all so to speak.

We have established many programs and the need that Raven has to feel needed and helpful is very much true. I'm currently watching her fight with Tes to demonstrate how to fight to a group of female teens. She trains them to be strong and intelligent. These females will be able to fight males. She equips them with knowledge that helps them to hold their own in a fight against males.

After training we have lunch in the courtyard with all 9 pups, the nanny, the manny, Samsin, Tes, and Oranssi. Our group looks like a bunch of pansies but in actuality all of us could kill with our bare hands. Only the pups are weak.

As the year goes by we haven't changed anything, no new programs, no new protocols, everything just grew stronger. Raven has been training hard for this, she knew that a new baby would take a lot and Selene was to be the Moon Goddesses own name sake.

The name Selene or Luna have been very rare in our world. In all of the kingdom Luna has never been given to a pup. Selene was once given in the form of Selena. So this was extremely important for us. This was something that the Moon Goddess has given to us.

She wants a magic filled wolf. So far Brett and Rhett hasn't given Anastasia one. They had pups that were magic but had no wolf. Selene was to be magic with both a wolf and snake. She would be very rare indeed.

Raven asked Tes to watch over her programs and train the females. Raven plans to continue with the Lunas but everything else would be Tesoro's duty until the birth of the pup. We didn't know exactly when the pregnancy would start but it would be soon. All 9 pups had a birthday, the twins were 4 and the septuplets were 3.

The Moon Goddess visited us again in the garden. She said that Raven would be pregnant on the full moon. That was next week. I asked her if she was nervous at all and she indicated that she wasn't. I made plans for Selene's conception. I wanted to take Raven to Paris. The trip was planned out with our making love in Paris on the night of the full moon.

We flew back home after our night of passion so Raven could attend her meeting of the Lunas. They were going to talk about pups this week. Raven was excited about having number 10. This is the most pups delivered to any Luna or Queen.

Raven was hoping that the Moon Goddess would attend to bless any Luna with a pup that had been marked worthy. I just didn't want Raven to get upset if the Moon Goddess didn't show up. Raven had everything ready for her meeting. They even had a place for the Moon Goddess. It was a type of throne, painted gold and covered in gold foil. For ceremonial purposes only.

The cook was making a beautiful smoked salmon for the ladies. They were having lemon cheesecake as well. I sure hope that the Moon Goddess would grant the pups desired. Raven had no doubt that she was pregnant. She began to embrace her pregnant body.

She had a special gown made for when she would have the Lunas over. I had asked her to get as much rest as possible because I knew that she would need it for carrying our princess. The Lunas all came to this meeting because they were hoping for a visit from the Moon Goddess.

Before Raven started the meeting they ate dinner, afterwards they all went to the amphitheater for the meeting. Everyone was seated and the doc started talking about how to help shewolves have a healthy body. The doctor finished and Raven took over. She explained how the Moon Goddess has to make the pups attach. After the pup attaches it should be cared for just like the human babies.

When everyone had spoken. Raven asked the females how many had sex in the last 24 hours in order to request the Moon Goddess given them a pup. Hands went up everywhere. They all were desperate for a pup. "Who can tell me why you Lunas are so desperate for a pup?", Raven asks. "I can tell you, it's because we all want our pack to continue on. We don't want our Alpha to be the end of our line. Those, like me, who have a pup want a spare. Like the Royal family said an heir and a spare. It is extremely hard to get a pup to adulthood, and even harder to get pregnant.", one Luna spoke up.

Raven dropped her head, "I understand the hardship but I can only invite the Moon Goddess. I can't make her take action. We are creatures that she born and she loves us. Trust her decisions wolves."

As soon as Raven said this the Moon Goddess appeared. "My Queen Raven works so hard for the Kingdom. She makes sure you all have what you need and thinks of you often. She invited me but I wasn't going to come. I was listening to everything said. Raven made a valid point. I am the Moon Goddess and I do love you. She is right my children do need to continue strong. So I am granting Pups for all. Those with one will have one, the shewolves who have no children will be given twins. My most faithful will have triplets. Guard them well and care for them all. In 9 months the Kingdom will suffer growing pains.", the Moon Goddess said.

"Raven I have given you ten pups but you aren't done. I know it is a lot and you get bogged down. I just want you to know you are my Queen and I will move for you. Thank you for your work for the Kingdom of Werewolves. You are blessed Raven. Soon you will begin to see it even more. Take this time to rest and let Wilson catch up. It's his time to push forward.", she touched Raven with a bright light and was gone.

I ran from the shadows where I was watching everything and caught Raven before she hit the floor. I had heard everything the Moon Goddess said. The thing I was worried about most was the growing pains. I just hope its nothing we can't handle. I plan to ask all the Alpha's to be sure and thank the Moon Goddess with sincerity.
