It had been five weeks. Mira had recovered from her child birth and her cubs had adjusted to being less dependent on her. According to the laws of the lion clan, after the birthing of cubs, the mother should be in isolation for four to six weeks to nurture the cub or cubs until they are ready to be shown to the rest of the pride.
Mira spent those five weeks doing just that. Being a mother and recovering. Jia Hao ensured that she did absolutely nothing and was overly protective. He acted like Mira putting a foot on the ground would lead to her death and it was loving but sometimes alarming. She only gave birth, she was not incapable but she never complained. Better to be with a man who willingly does all the work than with someone who leaves you to handle it yourself at your most vulnerable state.
One of the cubs cooed, cackling a laugh as he stretched his hands up. Mira smiled. She really was a mother. And a mother of six. That was really hard to conceive.
