Despite my early encounter with Jago's other side I convince him to continue his mediation traiing and with a faint smile directly at me he sits beside me. "Now let's continue if you realk want to, Kayela." Jago asked and I nodded at him, finding a comfortable spot beside the monk and as he drew in a breath I followed, breathing slowly until all I could hear was the monk's heartbeat.

I wasn't sure how much time passed but I blinked, my eyes focusing on Jago who smiled at my side. Once he saw I was back he reached over and I smiled at him, exposing my canines when he lightly patted my shoulder. "You seem to be enjoying meditating with me, Kayela." Jago observed and I just nodded, shifting close enough so I could rest my head on his shoulder.

Being this close to me Jago watched as I drew in a breath my nose wrinkling and he frowned at me, confused until he took a deep breath and then the smell hit him. Once he coughed I snorted at him, paws pushing at his shoulder before I rose to my feet.

"So I need a bath. I have fur after all, Jago" I grumbled, heading outside the tree that served as a temporary home and he sighed climbing to his feet once I was standing outside. "Not looking forward to taking a dip in cold water but I could use a drink as well." I admitted, limping a little and with a shrug Jago followed as I wandered deeper into the forest using my nose this time to track down the water I had been smelling for the past few minutes. We soon found a stream and I grinned as Jago stepped into view, his eyes widening when I started to strip. Once I turned my head I saw him with his back turned to me and I giggled, draping my arms around his neck.

"Not sure why you're getting so embarrassed, monk. You have seen me naked before." I pointed out with a giggle, nuzzling his neck and Jago stiffened. "Besides we could use a bath." I added, grasping his arm and he blinked too shocked to resist as I pulled him towards the edge of the water. After he dug in his heels I released the monk and with a backward glance and a shrug I dived into the water, trying not to let the monk see me shivering as he stared at me with his arms crossed against his chest and a faint smile on his lips.

"That water looks very cold, Kayela." Jago commented, noting that I had my arms wrapped around me unable to stop myself from shivering. "Still...it does look very relaxing." Jago admitted and I nodded, lightly splashing the water until with a sigh he started to remove his clothing and I smiled, leaning back in the water as Jago stepped close and with a finally shrug he leap into the stream.

The water that hit me as he entered the water left me soaked and I should have been annoyed until Jago emerged shaking and a very attractive blue which had me sniggering as he rubbed his shoulders.

"Serves you right, Jago for splashing me." I teased and he coughed, splashing over to me as I straighten the water covering my waist and after a long pause Jago finally grinned at me which caused me to cover my exposed chest. In the time it took me to figure out why I needed to cover myself in front of someone who had seen every square inch of me, Jago reached my side and when he stepped behind me I blinked, feeling his arms wrap around my waist.

"Kayela, what was that about me being embarrassed?" Jago teased and I tilted my head back to see him giving me a tiny smile. "Still this was a good idea even if the water is kind of cold." He pointed out and I snorted, leaning in close enough to kiss his neck.

"What cold water?" I replied and Jago chuckled at the silly grin on my face, leaning in as soon as I did. Just as our lips met we both heard someone clearing their throat and I lifted my head my eyes narrowed as Orchid stepped out from behind a tree, her eyes narrowed directly at me as Jago sighed. "Why do you insist on interrupting us?" I demanded, crossing my arms across my chest once I remembered that I was naked in front of Jago's sister.

"Jago, I thought you had more sense than to be bother with this beast." Orchid sighed, ignoring me in favor of scolding her btother and I let loose with a growl that made my throat vibrate. It wasn't until I felt a gentle hand on my shoulder that I turned my head, letting go of my anger as Jago shook his head.

"Orchid, don't talk about Kayela like that. She's much more than just a wild wolf." Jago shot back and I managed a weak smile, kissing the tip of the monk's nose which left him slightly red-faced especially when I kissed him seconds later. Orchid just rolled her eyes as Jago returned the kiss which just as heat. "As you can plainly see." He added with a smile, enjoying the way I rested my head under his chin.

"Hmph I don't see what you see, brother but it doesn't matter. If you're through leading my brother astray we could use your assistance." Orchid sighed and I liftedmy head before I let out a loud snort, making Jago chuckle as his sister glared at me. Once she walked away with her head lifted high I let out a low snort, baring my canines at her disappearing figure as Jago ran a hand through his hair.

"Do you know how mad you just made her, Kayela?" Jago asked and I turned my head, my teeth bared in the wolf version of a grin. After a pause he finally chuckled, draping his arms around my waist. "Well since she will be mad at us when we get back it will not matter what we do next." He added, echoing my smile with his body pressed to mine making me very aware that the cold hadn't affected him that much.

"Good thinking, Jago." I whispered, nuzzling his throat as his hands wandered down to my backside. "Very good thinking."
