Take it all away

His face was still void of any emotion, the only reaction she got was a vague nod of his head. What did he think of her? Under enough stress, it only added more when he silently turned away from her, slinking off without a word. A soft sigh, eyes dropping. She sat for a moment, wondering if he was coming back. What seemed like hours had passed, she rose to her paws, ready to leave, assuming he had left for good. But the soft thud of his steps reach her ears, keeping her frozen in place. His jaws were full of various plants that she didn't recognize. He placed them before her, organizing them into groups. Skull tilted to the side, mild curiosity sparking in sapphire eyes. A brief explanation of what each plants purpose was was given. His next words where soft, but still held power. Was he really offering her protection? It surprised her. The most he had ever offered he was his help with raising the pups. An easy ghost of a smile flashed across her face. "Thank you." lyrics were spoken softly. It was more than just a thank you for his help now, but all his help with the pups from the time they had been born. The young brute had sacrificed a lot, and it was time that she thanked him for it. Still standing, she took a few steps forward, closing the distance between the two. Before picking up the herbs in her jaws, she offered a soft lick along his jaw, his rough pelt tickling her tongue. Skull dropped as she bent to pick up the herbs. She still didn't know if she was going to take the herbs or not. Either way it felt wrong. She planned on letting him know either way, he was the only one she trusted, for the most part anyway. Sapphire gaze met his once more before turned to leave. She wasn't sure that he had anymore to say judging by his blank stare. Though she would stay if he did. Paws dragged wearily as she walked away, off to find her den to sleep. Hopefully the pups would be out doing something so she could have some quiet time and perhaps sleep. She would have to tell them eventually. -exit secret unless she's stopped- "Talk here."
