Across the Barren Dunes, my love

Aoto noticed that Tallulah was making her move towards the boulder and then down behind it. He was terrified of this storm, for he never had any experience like this before. Aoto shifted his body quickly and panted as he laid next to Tallulah trying to provide as much cover as he could for his beloved mate. However when he seen Tallulah sprint before getting behind the rock, he noticed something was wrong, was it a sprain he wondered but for now he couldn't do what he had to for it as the sandstorm raged on. Hoping that the thick sand would pass soon so he could take a closer look at her paw.



Gently he brushed his muzzle against her neck to let her know that he was there trying to bring a little bit of comfort to his mate as they waited out this storm together. He lovingly rested his own head upon his own paws but with his cheek against his mate's. Aoto hoped that at least his touch helped his mate a little before he closed his eyes and only drew in what air he could breathe before releasing again. Slow but steady breathing was going to prove useful for this instance.
