"Is she that wolf you were talking about?"the stranger said.

"Yeah, I've chosen Fox, he's my best breeder"Matt said.

A few weeks later, the ship reached the port some where near Nome.

Yin's crate was directly put into Room #1. When she was let out, there were two other dogs in with her. One was tied to a rope and the other was sitting in a corner. Last night, Yin's heat had come back.

The other dog in the corner was a gray and white husky and was a male in his prime. He looked over at Yin with watery eyes. Those eyes were ice cold blue. He didn't have a rope around his neck.

Yin turned to the other dog, the one with a rope around his neck. It was the hybrid! Yin tried to go to him, but he shook his head. Yin sat back down.

Fox was reminding himself not to rush her. Her sweet smell came to him in a wave, makeing his eyes water. He's been breeding for about 2 years now, and he's bred with plenty of females, but he wasn't sure how to approach this wolf-dog.

"Why am I here?"Yin demanded. Oh, she doesn't know. I could take advantage of this. Fox though with an evil smile inside.

"Hush now, you'll be okay, just stay by me. I'll keep you safe,"Fox soothed.

Yin looked over at the hybrid, who nodded. Although, he was hiding something. Yin walked over to Fox and sat a paw away.

"There, there,"he soothed."Come on now, what's your name?"

"Yin, who are you?"Yin whispered.  She nuzzled him. She felt like he was perfect. Strangely, she felt like she could trust him, no matter what.

"I'm Fox, see I won't harm you."he chuckled. This is going perfectly, he thought.

"I,m so tired and hungry, Fox."

"Well don't worry, we'll be fed in a while. Come, we can sleep over here." Fox padded over to a blanket. Yin followed. Fox licked her face. She nuzzled him. Yin knew he was the one.

*****

A few months later, Yin gave birth to five puppies. Yin hadn't seen the hybrid since she fell asleep with Fox.

One of the puppies was afemale, all black. Two of the males wre all white, twins.The first born male is the biggest, with gray sploches, like his father. The runt was a male, all black.

The next day, the was thought to have died, for it did not suckle during the night. Yin still tried to suckle it, but Fox told her it was no good. Yin still tried.

"It's dead." Matt told the stranger. Yin snarled. The human dropped the pup, and the pup squealed, for it got the breathing started. It was alive!

*****

While Yin was suckleing, anew dog came, a female. She was light brown with a white under belly. Fox fell in love right away. He started to spend less and less time with Yin and his puppies. Yin would always wonder where he went.

When the puppies were ten weeks old, people came and bought them. The runt was bought by a little girl with a big smile.

"I'll name you Blakie!" she smiled and skipped away.

While all the puppies were being sold, Fox was nowhere to be seen. After they were all sold, Yin got up, growling to herself, saw fox licking the new dog. He turned and saw Yin staring. He looked away. That was the last Yin ever saw Fox.

Crying, she fell limp to the ground, betrayed by her true love. White paws stepped in front of the sobbing Yin.

"Easy there, Missy." Yin stood and looked up and then collasped into the Hybrid.

"He left, betrayed me!" She sobbed. All the hybrid did was stand there and nuzzle her.

Yin sobbed and sobbed, finally she stopped when her fur was so heavy, she couldn't even lift her head.

*****

For two days Yin wouldn't eat, and on the third day, the Hybrid couldn't stand watching Yin suffer.

"Come on, I'll give you the surprise of your dreams!" He laughed.

Yin didn't respond. Little did she talk, after fox left her, she hadn't spoken a word.

He led her to the woods. They walked through the woods for quite some time.

"Brace youself."He sprinted into aclearing. Yin slowly followed with a curious expression on her face.

She walked onto thethe vast field, where there were thousands of caribou. And if that wasn't enough, the aurora borealis, shining a rainbow of colors was laughing above them.

The hybrid turned around and stood facing Yin. She nuzzled him, then pulled his ear and ran off toward the caribou. Laughing, the hybrid chased her.

They hunted a caribou and feasted

*****

They never went back to Matt's house, no they traveled together.

Soon, it was breeding season again. Yin, not caring, stayed by the hybrid, as his silent, lovely shadow. Every day, she her feelings pulled her to stay by her side.

One morning, Yin knew it was her time. For once, she led the hybrid, in search of a den. She walked for miles, but found an abandoned badger den about ten yards from a stream.

*****

A few days before Yin would be expecting, the hybrid came down and sat beside her. She nuzzled him.

"I love you." he said.

When he said that it was like a line, deep down inside of Yin, held taut for a long time, snapped.As the coils slithered and whipped, Yin exploded.

"LOVE?"She screamed, facing him, on her feet. "What is this... this.. this LOVE?!? I thought it was, was something to be taken away, like...lie an object! Broken! Without a soul! I, I trusted you, TRUSTED YOU! But, but no, you couldn't stop him. You had to let him use me. DIDN'T YOU?!? I...I could tell that you,YOU, were, HIDING, something. But no!" she threw her head up as if talking to the stars. "Oh Lord, you just couldn't bestow onto thy secret, COULD YOU?! Is LOVE just a, a.... LIE? I carried HIS puppies. DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?! He used me and, and didn't give a FLIP! You weren't there to tell me what would happen, were you? NO! So the next... GUY... who comes up to me and says they love me... I'll, I'll, I'll laugh in their FACE!" She looked into his face. "LOVE! HA! You're kidding, right? No one loves! Look at ME! DO... I ... LOOK... LIKE...I...CARE!?!" she was breathing heavily.

Her eyes burned with hatred, her soul was crying. But the hybrid looked past her eyes and brought back her true soul and saw what she reall ment.

For anger and lies could never cover up the truth of love. Love is what lets one know who they are. That, my dear readers, is what Yin was seaching for, needing. It is what the hybrid found and brought to her.

"Yes." he simply stated.

" Dam right I do." and with that, they were binded. For truth and love.

*****

Yin gave birth the following night. Three healthy cubs and one runt. The runt died, befor it made morning.

But during that night, the hybrid found a lost newborn cub. He gave it to Yin, who immediately felt better and took it in as her own.

The first born was a female, all red with a white underbelly, black tip on the tail, and black ears. The second was all black with a white snout, paws, and a white spot on the forehead, a male. The third was an all black male, with red ears, markings on the face, paws, and tail, and a white underbelly, paws, and tip of the tail. The adopted cub was a male, and the smallest. Luckily, the adopted cub was all red with a black mask and stripe down the back, white paws and a white ring on the tail.

*****

Ten weeks later, the cubs are out playing, and Stella, the first born, goes over to the hybrid, her father, and licks him. Then she walked over to Yin.

"Mommy, whats Daddy's name?"

"Yeah, whats his name?" Cal, the third born, and Mike, the adopted chimed in. Felle, the second, was sleeping.

"You know, I truely don't know. What is you're name, sweetie?" Yin laughed.

"Yang, my name is Yang."
