Ch 8 Feelings Unsaid
Nika and Sassy walked down the torch lit hall way of castle Doran as they came up to the main room door way,
"Do you need me to listen outside the doorway in case the puppy loses it?"
Sassy out her hands against the door as she shook her head and entered the room, Jiro was standing in the middle of the room his eyes focused on the young female now in front of him.
"So it took you this long to come for me?"
Jiro just gave her a look, but it quickly softened. He cleared his throat as his cold brown eyes met Sassy's distant green ones,
"Tell me the truth, why did you run to Wataru? Are you happy being with him, or is this just to get back at me for using you?"
Jiro's words were cold and sharp like daggers. Sassy could feel the weight tugging at her heart sinking deeply into her chest. She stepped toward Jiro holding back the tears the clung to the edge of her eyelids,
"I do enjoy his company, and he's kind and gentle. So yes I am happy being with him."
Jiro nodded and walked by her exiting the room, his head lowered. Just what he'd expect to hear, he suddenly caught the sound of a soft whisper in Sassy's voice and the sound of a body hitting the ground. He headed back into the room only to find an unconscious Sassy, a tear stain on her cheek. Jiro kneeled down beside her and gently licked her cheek feeling the salt from her tear slide over his tongue and down his throat.
The door opened again as Ramon stood in the doorway,
"Hey hey, I herd something what happened?"
The merman then spotted Sassy on the ground and Jiro kneeling beside her,
"Big sister finally came back, but why is she on the floor?"
Ramon walked over to the kneeling wolven and put his hand over her heart and turned to Jiro,
"She's like this because of you, she truly had feelings for you, and now that she's herd your plan, she's in pain from what humans call a broken heart."
Jiro looked away from Ramon as he picked up Sassy's limp body,
"Ramon, make sure no one disturbs us Sassy will be in my care until she's back to normal."
Ramon nodded as he and Jiro went off separate ways.
