Jax handed her over to Talon and shifted to clean her off. She immediately latched onto Talon's test, sucking greedily. Jax tried not to disturb her eating as he licked her off. He moved onto Talon, cleaning every part of him he could reach. He spent a long time between his legs, cleaning off all of the blood and fluids from the pups birth. He should probably be more disgusted by this but all he kept thinking was that this was his mate who had carried their pups for nine months and just gave birth. This was the least he could do.
He picked up the blanket with both of the afterbirths and trotted outside. The ground was cold and hard but he managed to dig a large enough hole to bury the blanket. He headed back inside and found Talon dozing while the pup still fed. The first pup was starting to whimper again so Jax shifted and picked him up. He was surprised that the pup had slept through all the racket of his sister's birth.
With careful movements, he switched out the pups, getting their son to latch onto Talon's other teat. Talon barely moved.
