Previously:

Zali gave an amused snort, "Currently trapped under snow."

Kai raised an eyebrow then looked at Cole pulling the pup covered in snow out, "I see. So he is feeling a little better?"

Zali shrugged, "Possibly, but I can't tell completely. Right now he is just being a pup and trying to figure the world out."

"So basically he is trying to figure out why he falls in snow?" The black wolf asked amused as Kiba once again disappeared in snow only this time running into a pile on level ground at full speed.

The pack leader started laughing at his sons' antics, "Yes. That is exactly what he is doing."

Now:

Cole followed Kiba as he explored the area they were in. The rest of the pack watched as the white furred pup observed everything. Kiba stopped when Lori walked up to him, "Hi sweetie how are you feeling today?" The puppy stared at her and cocked his head to the side.

The grey wolf laughed lightly, "He is been up and moving since he got up. He hasn't sat down. So I decided to let him walk around and learn more."

Cole's gold eyes followed the pup as he wondered a bit away from the two females, "That's good he needs to get to know the pack. You think he will be ready to travel in a couple of days?"

"Yes. It looks like he was part of a traveling pack before ours so it shouldn't be too big of a shock for him." Kiba ran back to Cole and hid between her front legs causing her to sigh, "Moss stop doing that. He is a puppy the last thing we need is him thinking he is not wanted."

"I don't like him."

Cole leveled a hard look at the wolf, "That is not okay to scare him. He is my child and there is nothing you can do about that." She turned to her human form having Kiba in her arms Lori did the same thing. "If you have a problem with my son then you will do well to stay away from him." She scratched him behind the ear causing him to react with a soft whine as his leg thumped on her arm. This made her laugh as she walked away with a smile, "Oh you are so cute. Don't you worry mommy Cole will not let anything happen to you."

Kiba looked at her and gave a puppy bark licking on her on the cheek when she brought him close to her face. Lori awed, "He is so cute. Are you sure he is the same boy you think he is?"

"Absolutely. It isn't just coincidence that he has the same name and is a white wolf. Even if he isn't, I am still going to love him as if he is the same boy. I feel like when I met him he was missing real family love and I feel that was how he ended up the way he did." She ran a hand down the white pups back causing him to give yips at the love he felt.

"You really don't want to hold anything above him do you?" Lori asked as the two walked off.

Cole shook her head, "No. Nor does Zali. He really didn't do anything wrong. Moss just has to think this is a new age." She laughed when Kiba pulled on her clothes, "Stop that." She tapped him on the nose then in her shock he turned to his human form. "I thought that pups couldn't do that."

"Zali." The male leader looked in the direction of his mates call, "You have to see this."

"What is wrong?" He walked over and gasped at the child in Coles arms. He was the size of a toddler with messy brown hair and blue eyes. Touching the child's cheek gently he said in wonder, "He turned to his human form." Kiba had a tight grip on Coles black jacket. The alpha wolf smiled as he touched just beneath the child's bottom eye lid, "You are the same wolf."

The child just watch him with his curious blue eyes before leaning forward to reach out for him. Zali was confused causing his mate to giggle at him, "He wants you to hold him."

"Wait me? I don't know how to hold a human child." The alpha replied looking at the child reaching out for him now with both hands.

"It's easy." Coles said putting Kiba in his arms and helping him by placing his arms to have an easier way to hold the child against his side. Zali's son instinctively gripped the mans own jacket leaning against the man for the warmth he proved, "You just have to make sure you support him even when he wiggles."

Kiba yawned and snuggled against his adoptive father. Zali was in awe as he gently touched the child's cheek, it was so soft. "Is this what all human children feel like?"

"That would be my guess." Cole answered putting the hood of the jacket over her sons head after her mate sat down and adjusted the child on his lap to use his jacked to keep Kiba warm, "For some reason seeing him like this just makes him seem fragile."

Zali smiled and rubbed the toddlers back as softly as he could, "But he won't when he gets older." He remembered the hard look Kiba had given him in their old life. So strong and able. Those blue eyes void of all other emotions. It was scary seeing him so fragile and little. "He will be raised right. Nothing will stop us from doing that." Cole nodded looking fondly at how her mate looked with a child in his arms. "What is it?"

"Nothing." She replied then both looked down when the child gave a small whine. "Mommy and daddy are here don't you worry." The woman gently stoked the small cheek helping her mate calm the sleeping child down as he rubbed his back with his thumb. His chubby cheek a little pink from the cold air, "Maybe we should move to a warmer area till he goes back to his wolf form."

"Or we could find a way to turn him back." Zali smiled when Cole pouted at him, "You want to see him in his human form longer don't you?"

She glared lightly at her amused mate, "He is absolutely adorable right now don't you dare take this away from me."

"Oh fine, I will let him be in human form for a little longer. But I don't think it is very smart to leave him like this for long. Not at first transformation." Zali replied adjusting Kiba to be over his chest still under the jacket, "He might catch a cold and we defiantly don't have time for that right now."

Cole smiled and followed him to a warmer spot where the pack had settled temporarily, "Don't worry he will be okay. Just like he was then he is strong now. We just have to raise him with love even if he grows up to search for paradise again."

"Yes." The male agreed making sure he had a good grip on the toddler in his arms. With caring eyes he looked at the asleep Kiba gripping his shirt even in his sleep, "Yes, that he will."
