Themis truly was worried for what Mabbit would think. Did he even want any more children? He had his own with his past mate, she had hers.. they weren't totally a family, though she viewed herself as a helpful step-mother to his children. He certainly was a father figure to Demius. It said a lot about his character and she knew that she'd chosen the right man for her mate. He was everything to her, everything that she could have ever wished for. He didn't use her, he didn't abuse her.. he encouraged her to be the best leader she could. He was an extrodinary King to Amberbjorne. Someone everyone could look up to and strive to be. Hopefully.. he would hear out her requests, her dreams. She had zero doubts that he would, but if he rejected..? She wasn't sure what she would do. The sound of Mabbit's paws upon the rock caught her attention as she soothed herself, still pacing back and forth in their den. She stopped once she laid her eyes upon him, though her body was still tense. The numbness of her paw wasn't any of her concern right now, even though it was still hurting. She didn't need to worry him with another thing right now. He lowered the kill he brought him, and a quick glance showed it really would be a feast. Themis truly was thankful to have him. But then he asked her the question. "Is everything alright? What troubles you?" Her breath hitched in her chest for a mere moment before she let a small smile force its way upon her lips. She padded over to him, keeping the weight on her foot light as to not bother it much, and gently rubbed her cheek against his. "Mabbit.." She murmured softly, pressing her face against his neck as she sat down, just wanting to be as close as she could to him. "I.. have a question for you. And I need you to answer honestly." Themis explained gently, pulling her head back and locking her eyes upon his rubys. Her heart was racing. They'd never had a disscussion about more kids before, yet she knew he was an amazing dad. They could raise them here, loved in Amberbjorne. "Have you ever thought about more children? Children.. with me? I know you have yours and I have mine.. and you've been a wonderful father to both of them. But.. something of you and me." She asked softly, tilting her head slightly. Her nerves were shot at this point. She hoped she wasn't coming off as ungrateful for her own kids, or ungrateful for his. She didn't want to replace them. Moreover, she wanted kids.. with him. "Sorry, it's been weighing on my mind more and more since the last war. And, I would understand if you didn't.. I do have a rep for not having the greatest of kids, minus Demius." She joked lightly, but shook her head as she did. "What do you think?"
