Adopted Life: Chapter 2

Weeks after he was found, Nova opened his eyes for the first time.

When Kate and Humphrey seen them, they were awe-struck by the icy blue eyes of their son.

"Awww, he has your eyes Humphrey." Kate said as she admired Nova's eyes.

"I know, isn't he so cute?" Humphrey replied. "Now I can say he looks almost exactly like me."

They continued to adore their pup as it crawled around exploring his home for the first time. They giggled a few times when he'd fall over or found something new that startled him.

But when he found a little lizard that looked interesting, he got close to check it out. It must have seen him and thought he was interesting, because it started to get close to him. When Nova was close enough, he sniffed the lizard. It got startled and shot its tongue at Nova, immediately sticking to the curious pup's nose.

Nova reacted with a yelp and jumped off the ground, spinning and turning as he ran to his parents. The couple giggled seeing him with a lizard stuck to his nose. When he got to them, Nova sniffled and whimpered, wanting help getting rid of his reptilian rider.

"Did you find a friend there?" they giggled as they helped their pup with his scaly hitchhiker. When they got the lizard off, it fell to the ground with a hiss. Nova jumped backed, spooked by the sound. Nova then entered pursuit as it fled.

"Leave my home you weird scaly lizard." Nova said as he chased the reptile.

Kate and Humphrey enjoyed seeing their son be territorial. He returned to his parents, panting from the running.

"So, did your little pal leave without any problems?" they asked.

"Yeah, but it's not my pal. He's just some lizard that stuck to me." He responded, entering the den and laying down. He continued to pant as he let his tongue hang out his mouth.

Though he was already a few weeks old, Nova still needed to feed on his mother's milk. When he was feeling hungry, he spoke up. Kate lied down on her side so Nova could feed. He eagerly suckled as he got some of his mother's breast milk. Feeding Nova took a lot of energy out of her, and moments into the feeding she started to get tired.

"Easy little Nova, be careful of your teeth." she said when she felt her son's teeth slightly poke her nipple. Nova took more milk than usual, due to his little adventure today.

Humphrey finally came in and lied down, panting slightly, but letting his tongue out from the heat of sitting under the sun.

Though Nova had just opened his eyes, he was already closing them for the night. He had finally opened them in the middle of the day today, and his little encounter with the lizard lasted a while. It was getting late and was nearing Nova's bedtime.

When he finally unattached himself from his mother's nipple, he was tired and let out a long yawn.

"Ok Nova, bedtime." Kate said.

"Aw! Can't I stay up a little longer?" he whined.

"No you-" Kate began, but was cut off by Humphrey.

"Oh C'mon Kate, just a few minutes isn't going to hurt anyone." Humphrey said, letting out the omega side within himself.

"Yeah. See mom? Dad is fine with it." Nova said."Please?" he pleaded as he made his eyes go big and wide.

"Awww, I cant say no to that face." Kate said as she adored the fact that her son was taking after his dad and using Humphrey's tricks to get his way.

"Fine. But only this once." Kate gave in.

"Yay!" Nova exclaimed as he turned around and jumped playfully onto his dad. "Your trick worked dad."

"See, what did I tell ya? My tricks always get her." Humphrey responded as he looked to see his mate blushing when he said she was vulnerable to his tricks.

The family stayed awake for a few minutes before they went to sleep.
