Chasing shallow dreams

Jaelle smiled as he snuggled against her, his heat pooling around her and sending tingles across her body. She tried to ignore the surge of hormones that came with being in heat, just trying to enjoy the tender moment with him and not have it amount to anything else. She knew what could happen while it was her season, and she was not wanting to be a mother right now. Besides, this was a man who had pups with another woman and had quite a few pining after him. A wave of guilt crashed over her for what she did to Soleil, but she swallowed it back. She hadn't set out to do that with Xeph, it had been in the heat of the moment. They were both consumed by passion and the smell of her heat, unable to stop their actions. Her ears pressed back ever so slightly, but otherwise her feelings did nothing to mar her features. A gentle smile was on her lips as he rested his head on her scarf, and she set to work grooming his head. It was a peaceful silence that spread between them, her thoughts lingering on the more closed off area that she had seen. Every breath of wind sent a chill through her, but she didn't suggest the move right now. It was rather comfortable here, sharing what warmth she had left with the silver man at her belly. Humming softly as she worked, her tail tapped on the glowing ice as she created her own little song. There was nothing awkward about them laying here without talking, it was completely comfortable. What a rare thing to have, such contentment in a time of silence like this. She wouldn't push him at all if he didn't want to talk about it, they could just go explore the glowing lake. There were far better things to do, and she wasn't always the best with advice. Jaelle could be blunt at times, and her tongue often moved before she realized what she was saying. At times words just came spilling out before she thought any better of it. A faint smile touched her lips, there were a lot of things that were unsavory about her and yet here lay this man beside her, even with several woman pining after him. A part of her felt flattered that he had chosen her, but had he really? Last she knew Limno was still his secondary and mother to his children, and Soleil was still a part of his pack. But yet here they lay. A warmth spread across cheeks, lashes batting towards him.

Their moment was broken when she looked back from her little wander, saying that Limno had left them. A jolt shot through her spine and she would have jumped if her back wasn't against a frozen lake. Both blue and brown eye were both wide as she looked at him with a rather dumbfounded expression. Gone? With the girls back all on their own? Jaelle's heart sank to her paws, the words of Soleil echoing in her mind. She had said that there wasn't something right about her, and the monochrome woman had picked up on it too. She was just too overly nice and her random position as secondary had struck her as odd. Although, Xephryis was partly to blame for that as well. Not really knowing what to say, she just stared at him with her mouth opened slightly. Watching him she could see the anger that filled him, his muscles tense as his face pulled those deep frown lines again. It was a look that she had worked so hard to get rid of, and the desire to smooth over his wrinkles filled her. Shifting slightly, she moved her front paw to rest her cold pad against his forehead, pressing softly as if to replace the skin back to the way it was before. He fell quiet again, and still she said nothing. There was nothing that she could really offer him to make this situation any better. It was a cold, heartless thing to do, leaving children like that. It nearly broke her heart. In the troupe the kids had been raised by everyone, but it wasn't really something that she had seen here a lot. This must be so hard on them... the poor dears. She put it in the back of her mind to take them out sometime, get them away from all the emotions and just let them be kids.

Her silver knight spoke up again, saying that he had been looking for her. She wasn't really around pack lands often so she wouldn't have missed his presence there. It probably wasn't ideal though, not from what she had seen with these odd packs of theirs. Apparently he needed to be there at all times. Jae's nose wrinkled slightly, but reclined when he said that it was for the girls. Nodding slightly, she could understand that point of view. He had every right to be angry with her, to hate her for his sake and their children's. But who was looking after them when he was away? Surely someone within the pack had stepped up to take on that daunting task. She let out a small sigh, taking her paw off of him and tucking it towards her chest. "I was planning on sticking around more as it grew colder, it's rather hard to explore with the amount of snow I expect will come with this cold front. I could always keep an eye on them, although it's been awhile since I have been around pups. The gypsies all rose the kids together though, so I know enough. I don't mind doing that while you go out to do what you need to do." she said in a gentle voice. Her bangles ran further up her legs and she stretched them out, letting out a soft laugh as her bells chimed along with them. After all, someone had to help out, yeah? She did say that she was there to offer assistance, and she had yet to do so. "As for not doing enough, I am sure the girls understand. Someone has to make sure I don't trip down a mountain, right?" Jaelle asked with another laugh, her teasing voice nearly echoing through the glowing ice.
