"Well in that case you age beautifully." Morpheus nuzzled against Tori. "Come on you two. Time to eat." He called before turning back to Tori. "will you eat by my side?" He asked like when he first started courting her.

Lyra giggled. "You are glad now though?" She asked rolling her eyes in her father's direction.

"Yeah" Lunar said smiling as he trotted towards their father.

"Why sure!" Tori said smiling as she moved beside him.

Morpheus smiled as he laid down to eat. He was glad Tori was by his side along with their two pups.

Lyra bounced on Lunars back as he trotted towards their parents. Once there, she slid off his back to the ground. She walked up to her mom and tried to get some milk.

Tori jumped and yelped. Lyra was now the age of her sharp baby teeth, and that hurt. "Lyra! Haven't I told you? You don't have milk anymore! Meat!" Tori said, not trying to be mean, just making sure she knew.

"But mommy the meat tastes weird." Lyra complained.

Morpheus laughed and got up. He gathered a few berries. "Here try these." He said dropping them in front of Lyra.

Tori shook her head, watching to see if Lyra was gonna at least like the berries.

Lyra tentively picked up one of the berries in her mouth. Crushing it with her teeth, it burst in her mouth. The flavor was good. "It's OK. I still prefer mommys milk though." She said.

Morpheus shook his head "no more milk from mommy. You are too big now." He tried to tell the pup.

"Here Lyra, try the meat again, you may like it" Tori tried telling her, pulling a small piece off and giving it to Lyra with a smile.

Lyra tried the meat again. "It tastes a little better. Can I please have some milk?" She asked hoping her parents would cave.

"You know I don't think we had this much trouble with Luna." Morpheus whispered into Tori's ear.

Tori shook her head at Lyra, as well listening to Morpheus. "No more. It is either meat or berries." she told Lyra, her tail raised and wagging a bit.
