A/N: Hello fellow readers, I'm starting a new story due to the fact that I have ran out of ideas for my other ones. This is rated T due to the fact of romance and war, but may change to M when Lemons come in later chapters. I'm not sure how long this story will be but I'm sure that it will be longer then any of my other ones. This story will be set up with dates so for instance Humphrey was born in spring 2008 which means his death would be in the год of 2023 since Волки live around 15 years. Let's get this story started! *cracks knuckles*

Humphrey's Age: 15

Humphrey's POV

Today was just like any other day, the sun was shining and I was just relaxing in my логово, ден alone as usual. I got up and stretched hearing a few of my Кости crack due to my old age. I walked out of the логово, ден and looked and the rising sun that had only risen and час ago. I stared at the mountains that the sun had risen from and got Остаться в живых in my thoughts.

'I remember when Kate and I would watch the sunrise almost every day.' I thought to myself

An image of her tan face and hazel eyes came into my thoughts, she had a warm smile just like the день she passed.

"Oh how I remember that day" I сказал(-а) with a slight sadness

Flashback, March 30th 2022

That день was just like today, just an average день like any other. Kate and I were the oldest Волки in the pack, at 14 years old, we out lived any other волк that was our same age. We lived Далее to the head Alphas логово, ден since we were the parents of them. Kate and I we just have a lazy день with nothing else to do, we would tell stories and remember great memories that we had while we were young. It was a great день and it was one I truly enjoyed, but little did I know at the time L that it was her last. After having ужин with our son and his family we headed to bed, cuddling up together like we always did. I had a great dream that night, but it was еще of a flashback since it was about the trip to Idaho and back, all those years ago. That trip has always stayed with me since it was when Kate fell in Любовь with me and we ended up getting married a few days after we had returned. I slept with a smile on my face remembering all the ups and downs that trip had. From the howl on the train, to the медведь attack and saving Kate from the flash flood, all of it held a special place in my mind.

When the Далее morning came I woke up before Kate did which was a rare occasion but it didn't raise my suspicions as to what actually happened. I went for a quick walk around the territory before returning Главная and finding her still asleep. This was when my suspicion started to come in, I nudged her head a few times which usually would awake her but this time it didn't. I placed my paw on her shoulder and shocked her lightly a few times the find that it didn't work as well. I also noticed that she was quite cold, as if she was out in the snow for too long. Fearing the worst since she and I both knew that we were nearing the end of our lives, I went to get the pack nurse. Her name was. Kelly and she was somewhat related to me and was one hell of a good nurse who could cure and heal almost anything.

I brought her to my логово, ден and had her check on Kate to see what exactly was happening to her. I nervously sat Далее to where Kate was laid down while I watched Kelly examine her. She had a look of doubt on her face while she checked her temperature and looked for any infections. At the back on my head I was fearing the worst since I knew that it must of been Kate's time to go. Kelly finally checked her pulse but she seemed to have trouble locating it. After a минута sue figured it out and so did I. She has a look of sadness on her face when she looked at me.

"Humphrey I'm sorry, but it was Kate's time to go, she's gone." She сказал(-а) before exiting the логово, ден leaving me alone with Kate.

My mind was blank, it was trying to take it all in but it just couldn't. I broke down crying into her fur, I could not hide the sadness that I was feeling. I looked at her face and saw she had a smile on her face, a warm smile. This cheered my up a little knowing that she was happy when she passed, and I knew that she would be waiting for me to soon Присоединиться her when my time came. It wasn't long until my son came into my логово, ден to see his mother had passed. He broke down crying just like had when I first found out. I place my paw on his shoulder and he looked at me.

"It's okay son, she's in a better place now and she's happy." I said
"I just can't believe she's gone" He сказал(-а) with his eyes full of tears
"Me nether, but it was her time" I said
"Yes, she lived a great live" He said
"Yes she did, and she wouldn't want us to cry over her loss, she would want us to continue on, and remember she will always be watching over us." I said
"I'm really going to miss her, she was one of the best mothers a волк could ask for." He said
"And she was a great mate as well" I said
"But dad why aren't Ты crying?" He asked
"I did, but I soon stopped when I knew that she was happy when she passed and I remembered what she once told me." I said
"And what was that?" He asked
"Once Ты Любовь someone, they stay with Ты forever, in here" I сказал(-а) placing a paw over his heart
"Thanks dad, I needed that" He сказал(-а) giving me a Hug which I returned.

Back to Present

I was interrupted from my thoughts when I heard a волк walk up to my den. I turned my head to find my son, Tanner, with his son, Nova walking toward me.

"Hi grandpa!" Nova сказал(-а) excitedly while giving me a hug

Nova was about a год old and looked a lot like me, only he had Kate's Hazel eye's which reminded me of her every time I saw them.

"Hey Nova" I сказал(-а) smiling I then looked at my son "Hello son, what brings Ты here?"
"Hey dad and I came here to see if Ты didn't mind watching Nova today." He said
"I don't mind at all, but why though?" I asked
"Well Shade and I wanted to spend some time together alone since we really haven't had the time since Nova was born." He said
"Ah I see Ты want some 'alone' time" I сказал(-а) with a laugh
He laughed as well "No dad, Shade and I are good with one pup for now" He said
"Okay have fun then" I said
"Thanks dad, I owe Ты one" He сказал(-а) as he started leaving
"You always say that but Ты never make up for it" I сказал(-а) laughing
"Well, what can I say, I'm just like you." He сказал(-а) with a laugh before continuing on

I turned my attention back to Nova who was playing with a bug that was walking on the floor of my den.

I smiled "Hey Nova it looks like it's just me and Ты today, got anything Ты want to do?" I said
"Oh I don't know, what do Ты want to do?" He asked letting the bug fly out of the den
"Well how about a story?" I asked
"Ooo I always Любовь you're stories" He said
"Okay have a seat, this is going to be a long one." I said
"Oh boy, what's it about?" He asked sitting across from me
"Well Ты know that Ты always asked what has happened in my life?" I said
"Yeah" He said
"Well I'll tell Ты my life story" I said
"Aw sweet, it's about time" He said
"Alright let's start from the beginning..." I said
