Wolf Boss, or Qiang, was waiting just outside the hospital door. His wife, Nuo, was giving birth to their pup. A few minutes later, the doctor said that he could go in.

When he entered the room, he saw his wife holding the little bundle that was their pup. He slowly walked over. Nuo looked up at him, and held the baby up for him to see. It was a tiny, female pup. When she opened her eyes, he noticed that she had inherited his eyes, but a little more feminine. Her eyes were a beautiful maroon red color. She not only had his eyes, she had his everything other than her little face, that was the only thing that she had of her mother.

"She's so beautiful," Qiang breathed. Nuo held the girl out to him.

"Want to hold her?"

He gently took the pup into his arms, and the love he already felt for the child grew even larger. He held his paw out to the girl, and her smaller one took a hold of it.

"She likes you. I still haven't come up with a name yet, though," said the female wolf.

"I have," said Qiang, "Lihua. It means pretty and talented," He looked up at his wife to see if she agreed to the name.

"Lihua," she said, feeling the name roll off her tongue, "It's perfect," she said, her golden eyes sparkling.

One week later, when Nuo was allowed out of the hospital, the three wolves went to visit Shen and the others.

After everyone saw the pup, all the women cooed at how unbelievably adorable she was. One of the other pups, a male, came bouncing up to see the little girl. It was Juno.

Wolf Boss knelt down so that the child could see.

At the sight of Lihua, Juno tilted his head curiously to the side. It was so cute! His almost black eyes were widened and one of his ears was bent to the side.

He looked up at the older male. "She's cute, sir." Wolf Boss chuckled at the boy, "She really is, huh?"

That night, Wolf Boss didn't sleep. He was to busy looking admiringly at his sleeping daughter. Nuo finally convinced him to go to sleep.
