Talon remained in the nest, watching at first as Jax built it up around the sides, then closing his eyes again as he left, keeping curled around their pups. They had burrowed into their mother's warmth, and both Eagle and Birch were sleeping soundly. They'd gotten lucky -- both of them were healthy, and very good and quiet. They'd barely cried since they'd been born.
There was the sound of a struggle outside of the cave, which made Talon pick up his head and prick his ears. However, it seemed to be the sound of a kill; he could hear the desperate sound of a deer before it was killed, and his tail twitched curiously. So Jax had made a big kill, all on his own. That was good -- this meant they could feed off of it for a while, what with the snow keeping everything good and frozen even after it had been torn open.
