I've been thinking about you all day baby

He was trying to be better, to not be a monster anymore, all for Orica. He was making a big attempt to become a good man, one that could be seen at Orica's side one day, one that she could bring to meet her family and they wouldn't run the fear of him spilling their blood. But it was hard. Fuck, it was so hard. Being away from her killed him. It tore at his recently awakened heart. He couldn't sleep properly at night on his own, fitfully tossing and turning, some nights even unable to get a wink of sleep, sitting up wide awake, his thoughts always turning back to the marbled medic. He had never needed someone so much as he needed Orica. Not even his sister Cataleya, whom he had not seen for some time. Did she realize that he no longer needed her or was she just bitter because of how he'd protected Orica that fateful day? But he wasn't completely alone. The leopard, the one that had appeared that day when he'd almost killed the small black man, it had stuck to him, following him around everywhere. Demyan had never really paid the feline much attention, not caring if it followed him or not, but now that he was without Orica, he was starting to appreciate the cat's constant presence, despite not having exchanged much in terms of words besides their names. Nickolai, as the feline called himself, was quickly becoming a welcomed companion to the hellion.
It was another day without Orica. And Demyan hated it. Nickolai knew it too. He knew the large man padding beside him needed the little woman in order to change, because if it were up to him, the wolf would never let go of his murdering ways. Nickolai wasn't afraid of Demyan, not by far. Yes, he was much larger and perhaps a lot more powerful, but the agile leopard could easily move himself out of harms way, the trees his safety net. He had nothing to fear from the titan at his side. Which was why he was bold in his actions, trotting nearly fur to fur with the man as they moved to an unknown location. Summer was in full blast now and even in the cooling shade of the trees, the two companions could still feel the uncomfortable effects of the heat. Hardened cyan eyes danced across the unfamiliar landscape, searching for something that would serve to cool them off better than shade. And it appeared right before them; the lake. Powerful limbs propelled the large man forward, all others thoughts fleeing from his mind except one; get into the lake. His attention was focused entirely on getting to the water, relief becoming instantaneous as his paws breached the surface of the water, the cooling liquid lapping at his pelt. The brute waded in until the water reached his elbows, chin tilting down to lap at the refreshing water. Nickolai stayed in the shallower end of the water, his keen golden gaze dancing over to the other side of the lake, spotting an ivory figure beginning to retreat. Demyan. He called out, catching the attention of the large brute. Demyan turned to look at Nickolai, his gaze flickering to what the feline had noticed. Wolf. Female. And familiar.
