Prologue
"Snowblossom, will you be my mate?" Thornstar whispered, his dark blue eyes glistening with hope. The two cats were sitting below the owl tree, tails entwined and pelts pressed against each other. Snowblossom let out a purr, her luscious green eyes happy and sparkling. The moon shone over the lovers, and it seemed to glow brighter.
"Of course, Thornstar. I would be happy to spend my life with you." Thornstar had only become the leader a couple moons ago, and he was almost the youngest one around. He was only thirty moons old, and Snowblossom was twenty-four moons old.
"Thank you, Snowblossom. This is the greatest gift I could've asked for after becoming leader of ThunderClan. However, I know that you want kits so desperately, but would you mind waiting until I'm settled down as leader?"
"I could wait an eternity for you. I love kits, and I hope that someday, we'll get them. They'll be perfect, right?" Thornstar said nothing, but licked his mate's head.
"They will be perfect. Let's head back to camp. Flamespirit will be wondering where I am." The mates trotted back to the enclosed protection of the camp, and were greeted by a flame pelted tom, just as Thornstar had expected.
"Thornstar! Where were you? The whole clan was worried sick about you and Snowblossom," mewed Flamespirit, his golden eyes jumping in the night. Taking this as her leave, Snowblossom quickly trotted away, her eyes landing on her best friend, Sunstep, who was eating from the fresh-kill pile.
"Hello, Sunstep. Mind if I share that squirrel with you?" Snowblossom mewed gently, careful not to startle the golden she-cat. Her green eyes flicked up, and she purred with delight, shifting over. Snowblossom dug into the fluffy gray squirrel, tearing its flesh away.
"You have to tell me about what happened with you and Thornstar!" Sunstep purred, nudging her. Snowblossom sighed, swallowing the last bit of squirrel in her mouth.
"Thornstar asked me to be his mate. I accepted, of course. But, he wants to wait for a while before we have kits." Sunstep's eyes lit up, and she laughed gently. Snowblossom grunted, before finishing the rest of the squirrel.
"Oh, that's wonderful. The prettiest she-cat and the handsomest tom are getting together. I bet everyone planned it." Snowblossom laughed, rolling her eyes at her excited friend.
"Yeah, I don't think so. Haven't you seen the way Nightslash and Talonflame look at me? They totally wanted Thornstar and I to become mates." Sunstep snorted, and began to lazily groom at her clumped pelt.
"Of course they give you those looks. You're probably the most beautiful cat in this world, much less of ThunderClan. But, they have to accept those facts and realize that Thornstar is the only tom that could compare with you."
"I see the way you look at Oakshadow! You're eyes all moony and such!" Snowblossom retorted, looking triumphant as she saw her friend flush all shades of pink.
"Well… in my defense.. he is really cute!" Snowblossom giggled, her eyes sparkling. Though still embarrassed, Sunstep joined in with nervous laughter. However, as the night grew, the two she-cats launched into a caterwaul of laughing, tears streaming down their cheeks. Snowblossom really was in love with him, and her eyes glowed under the bright, full moon.
