The wolf pack fear that the pups will more than likely not be able to survive the harsh Arctic wilderness. But since Silver had not eaten enough meat while pregnant, she was not able to produce enough milk, and the two pups, named No Growl and Tiny Whimper, become weak. Silver gives birth to a litter consisting of two pups, a male and a female. Sweet Fur Amy plans to become the pups' babysitter once they′re born. Kapu knows Raw Bones did it as an act of defiance, but nonetheless helps his mother and the rest of the pack prepare for the birth. In spite of Kapu's insistence that the pack will not have pups during this time, Silver is impregnated by Raw Bones. Kapu plans to have the pack hunt caribou throughout the year, so that they will regain their strength. Raw Bones continuously tries to usurp Kapu′s position as alpha male, but Kapu beats him back every time, occasionally with the help of Zing, Aaka, and more recently, Sweet Fur Amy. When the story starts, the pack consists of himself, his mate Aaka, his brother and beta Zing, his and Aaka′s daughter Sweet Fur Amy (referred to as Amy in the previous book), Kapu and Zing′s mother Silver, and her mate Raw Bones, the former alpha of the Colville River. Kapu, son of Amaroq, has been alpha since his father′s death in the first book, and has managed to hold his status since. With the caribou now returned to Kangik, Kapu and his pack-known as the Avaliks-plan to hunt and regain their strength.
