Haven flew gracefully toward the den, his large wings gently folded to his sides as he padded his way into the den. He stopped short by where he used to sleep and grinned. His sleeping arrangements have changed for the better, if he must say so himself. His facial features softened and held a glow that wasn't there before. His mind wandered over this morning.. and him waking up to Kei. He grinned vibrantly before his heart began to race like no other. He was nearing the alpha's den.
Sighing, he sat down and looked down at his large paws. He easily made the dens look three sizes smaller with his massive frame, but he couldn't help his size. He swallowed roughly, his temperature rising. Was he really that nervous? The Haven, warrior for the Fukai, nervous? What the hell was going on with him? He let out a large sigh and ground his paws into the stone. He had to ask for permission. Or he wouldn't be able to look at himself or sleep next to Kei for that matter.
Letting out a soft little bark or two, Haven poked his head around the corner toward the Zephyr and Cinder's den. "Zephyr, alpha? May I speak with you for a moment?" He sat down at the front of the den and waited for his alpha to walk out. Oh ancestors... what if he said no? But then again, Zephyr was a rather kind wolf. So maybe he would say it was alright.... But if he didn't.... Haven shook the thought from his mind, he wasn't going to think about it until the time came. He'd just have to wait and see how Zephyr reacted.

He slept soundly, peacefully, contently with his beautiful mate by his side. Ever since her answer to his one question he had been living as if in a dream, every waking moment more spectacular than the last. His golden brown tail flicked about lazily as he slept next to his mate.
Recently Cindershock had made all of his dreams come true and he felt happy by simply being near to her, hearing her laugh, watching the soft rise and fall of her chest as she slept. And now to think, they were actually going to start a family together! His heart pumped full of excitement.
A passing scent caught his sleeping nostrils and he twitched, awoken from his gentle slumber. Eyes blinked sleepily, Zephyr rolled over and yawned, maw opening wide showing little white teeth. He grinned, looking to his right where Cinder lay, placing a paw delicately over her form so that he could feel her warm fur underneath his paw pads. She lay on her side and he could not be sure whether she was asleep or not, so when he heard Haven's voice calling for him, he did not disturb her.
He thought he had recognised the scent from before and it caused him to frown slightly. Haven seemed nervous, yet elated at the same time, as if he were about to embark on a dangerous and thrilling journey.
"Haven are you alright? You seem stressed" He asked, a moment before Haven himself asked for a word with him. Zephyr nodded with some confusion. "Of course Haven you know you can ask me anything" Zephyr always would try his best to help his packmembers whenever he could. It was, after all, his duty as an Alpha.
Words: 289 Ooc: Is there going to be a lot of pitter pattering of tiny feet soon? XP

As soon as Haven's crimson eyes got a glimps of Zephyr, he instinctively bowed formally. Being raised by Lucid, he knew how to show his respect and whom to show it to. His alpha's soft voice startled him slightly. He seemed concerned almost, but then again, Haven was sure his emotions were very easy to read at the moment. Sitting back up, he nodded his large head once before hearing Zephyr's voice once again. He just needed to calm down a bit, slow his heart rate and grow up. Be the male was born to be.
Haven smiled nervously before speaking, "Thank you, Zephyr. I, er, have become very close to Keith. And being raised in the mountains, there are no matings without the alpha's consent. Out of respect for the pack, and the morals I was raised with, I'm here to ask you for your consent to have Kei as my mate." He closed his eyes quickly after his little rant, hoping that he wasn't out of place by asking. If he said no, then that was that. At least he had asked to begin with instead of going behind the alphen pair's backs, true?
Letting a little sigh escape his cream colored maw, he looked at Zephyr and swallowed. There was that other question that was continually running through Kei's mind when she slept. Deciding to ask it as well, he managed to speak slightly above a whisper, "Kei would also like to start a family. I'm not quite ready for that, but I feel that you should know that it is on our minds. Maybe in a couple seasons her dream shall come true, but as of now, I would love to be her mate." Realizing that he was ranting again, he quickly shut his maw and let out a nervous chuckle.
OOC: Haha! Not quite yet. Probably a little while after Cinder and Zephyr's litter is one or two months old. Haha!

Zephyr almost sighed in relief as Haven finally voiced his worry, and obviously the cause of his nervousness. He was worried another pack member was hurt, or worse, and that they were unable to call for help. Unfortunately, Zephyr always immediately thought the worst in situations like this. So many things could go wrong on a simple hunting trip, especially if one is on ones own and without help. He shuddered at the thought of finding Cindershock lost or injured upon one such hunting trip.
But this, this was a good thing. Haven had fallen in love, and with the newcomer Keith no less. What a surprising turn of events. He smiled before nodding thoughtfully. If Haven loved Keith, if he promised to look after her and care for her and protect her, then of course he had no qualms. However, he had a second thought. Keith was still new to the pack, she hadn't been here for long and Zephyr couldn't help but wonder if it was just a mere infatuation.
Raising his head, Zephyr gave Haven a solemn, yet hopefully reassuring look before beginning a small speech. "Haven, I know you probably feel in your heart that this is right, and if that is so forgive me,but Keith is still a new member to the pack. Perhaps what you feel at the moment is mere infatuation? I would say give it a little thought, and if you still feel the same way in a few days, come and see me again"
He hoped Haven wouldn't take it too personally, but he was still young, and perhaps more prone to jumping to quick conclusions. A small voice spoke up in his mind, reminding him how quickly he fell in love, but he pushed it down, assuring the voice that this was different. Cinder was different. Besides he was older. Wiser.
"Is there anything else you wish to ask me Haven?" He asked gently, cocking his head slightly. He knew Haven would be upset, but if he truly did love Keith, and she loved him in return, they would retun nonetheless unfazed in a few days. He just had to make sure that this was exactly what Haven wanted.
Words: 373 Ooc: xD Thought I'd be a bit difficult, Zephyrs going with his better judgement this time. It'd be a bit boring if he said yes to everything I think xD He'll say yes next time though
