Seclusion

[jinx]

Deep in the caves the panther lies, on the mend. Her right flank healing well she licks at her fur slowly. A small pile rests where she has moves the ruby engagement ring, and the remnants of the yellow diamond collar that had been given to her. All that was left of her two relationships...nothing but empty feelings and cold stones that had fluttered at her before she had boxed and buried them.

Laying in the cool of the cavern she sleeps now, deep within her subconscious...working on sending her energy to her wound to heal it from the inside...to strengthen her ability to o it.

[Ari]

Crept into the caves, having followed the smell of Jinx, he stopped when he saw her, he didn't make any sound as he sat close to her but not enough to frightened her when she woke up, he had missed her so much and like her, he had been hurt at the master's vanishing.

He started to sing softly, sure it was not in english tongue but it was almost like a haunting lullaby, it was one he remembered from his days back in the cage.

[jinx]

Once her wound was healed on the inside she blinks her eyes open, seeing and hearing Ari. Her ears turn back a little but she purrs deeply. Moving she curls her panther form around him, having missed him a lot. "Sweet Ari." She purrs softly, and nuzzles against him tenderly. "Are you alright? It has been so long."

[Ari]

Nuzzled back with happy purr like giggles, having missed her greatly. "Missed Jinx so much, thought lost only one left." He gave a slight whine, they had both lost the man as he curled closer, glad they still had each other. "Glad you not go away as well..."

[jinx]

Grooming Ari's ears she purrs deeply. "No Ari, I would never leave you." She says, meaning every word. Never having been one to lie she cares for him, cleaning his furry ears. "I am glad you stayed...I was starting to think I am repulsive..." She says, ears back as she cuddles against him. "I am sorry I worried you." She says and purrs still.

[Ari]

Let her groom him, his purrs showing how much it helped relax him. "No repulsive, very lovely and pretty, ari would be upset and would leave if you left." His speaking had dwindled a lot since no one was around to teach him how to speak properly.

Snuggling into her and wouldn't leave her side for anything, she meant everything to him and it would destroy him if he lost anyone else,

[jinx]

Nuzzles him, and purrs deeply. "I won't leave you sweet Ari." She says softly, and stays curled around him protectively. "I was just....putting a few things to rest, so I can move on..." She says, and her ears turn back sadly.

[Ari]

Nuzzled closer to her as he licked the side of her cheek, he did not know how if felt to lose a lover but he knew how it felt to loose family. "jinx miss others?" He didn't like it when she was upset, it made him upset, he nosed his to hers to try and cheer her up.

[jinx]

Keeping him close she nods a little. "Yes, it is hard to lose those you dare to love. It is a risk I had taken...and even thoughi failed to keep them, I will grow from the experience." She says softly, and gives his nose a soft gentle nudge with hers. "Don't be upset for me Ari, I will be alright."

[Ari]

Nestled closer to her, granted he was not as brave as most of the others or as strong he had still managed to fight his way just like all the others had. "not still wounded are you?" he would heal her if she would, the master and the other coven leaders had granted him the special title and he held onto it with pride.

[jinx]

Purring she nuzzles close. "No sweet Ari, I healed from the inside." She says and looks at him. "Are you ok?"

[Ari]

nodded slightly, he exposed the massive bandages on his chest. "healing others make healing self painful and slow but healing." He snuggled closer to her, relaxing as he remembered the fight and whines slightly.

[jinx]

Looking at the bandages she turns her ears back. "Would you like me to help? I'm getting better at it " she says softly, and licks the back of his neck in comfort. Trying to soothe him, and comfort him she chuffles to him, and keeps him close.

[Ari]

he giggled and shook his head. "healer now, need to get better, what better one then treat self, want to be the best can be for the coven." he played with the bandages as he thought to himself, he hated the fact they had lost a few on their side, he could see them, haunting his every step.

[jinx]

Nodding she closes her eyes . "Alright." She says softly, and yawns once. "How have you been Ari? Anything new?" She asks sleepily, still working on replenishing her energy.
