Su Yu slept until evening.
As she drifted in and out of consciousness, she sensed two soft, little bodies lying beside her.
Su Yu subconsciously reached out a hand. Ao Yue, who was sleeping on their back beside her, snuggled closer and nuzzled their chubby little face into her palm.
Su Yu opened her eyes and, sure enough, saw two little white fluffballs lying beside her. A small hawk cub was asleep by her pillow. Shengqing and Xun Yu were not in the stone house.
As if sensing her gaze, Su Shiyi lazily opened his eyes and let out a soft chirp for his Amu.
Su Yu's heart softened. She stroked Ao Tian and Ao Yue's little faces, then ruffled Su Shiyi's head, her voice gentle. "Go back to sleep."
Su Shiyi chirped once, closed his eyes, and went back to sleep.
He was still just a cub and needed a lot of sleep.
Just as Su Yu sat up in her grass nest, the Beast Husbands who had been out hunting returned with the young cubs, and the once-quiet stone house instantly burst with activity.
