She did not know much about Great Danes, especially as her entire experience with the breed (and most of it with dogs in general), was with Nikko. What she did know, from her all of one time that she had offered to take the beast to the vet when Jeb had had to be at work and unable to get off, was that their bones were extremely vital. The breed was just so massive that they normally put huge amounts of stress on their system. Nikko did not need a broken bone, not that anyone did, and Az could only hope that it would heal correctly enough to not cause him problems later in life.
The thought of children with Jeb was something she only allowed herself to indulge in thinking about on the odd, rare occasion. No sense building castles in the sky, went the saying. Especially as they had never really discussed it. Well, not beyond a vague, hypothetical, 'do you like children' sort of way.
In all honesty, she had not really considered children as anything in her future before she had fallen for Jeb. After all, she had been raised by all those nannies, nice as they were, and sent off to school immediately, nice as that was. That kind of childhood was too cold for her to want to pass it onto the next generation, and she had not really considered that it could be different.
When the blood was washed away, and she wiped her hands, Az reached over to brush one thumb across Jeb's jaw. Her fingers rested lightly on his jaw. She knew that he hated that inability to handle blood of his, and sought to wordlessly tell him that she thought nothing less of him for it.
There was not much she could do besides wait and watch as he fixed up the poor dog's leg. Only to step forward on a gasp, to grab Jeb's arm. "Hold still," concern flowing, she carefully knelt down and released his arm to hold his foot between her two hands. After a quick inspection, she looked back up at him. "I think I might have to pull this out." The infirmary was both too far and too crowded. And she was fairly sure that there were no major arteries in the part of his foot where the glass was.
