The wolf looks at her for a long moment and then gets up. Maybe she's done cleaning the clearing.

"Did that make you uncomfortable? What I just said?" She asks as she goes to follow.

"Because you didn't answer."

I don't like to think about it. It's constantly on her mind.

And I still don't understand why that was bad.

"Perhaps it wasn't."

"I just wonder if you did it because you weren't sure you'd ever get the chance again."

"Do you think your goddess is that fickle?"

No. But people leave.

I think, perhaps, that you have the best intentions, the wolf says carefully.

I have been abandoned repeatedly. I cannot help but believe it will happen again and proceed according... Just as she's about to finish, they get close to the clearing and two ice golems rises up from the ground and hold up their hands for them to stop. She is still angry with me.

"Seems so."

"Time enough to finish your thought, then."

I cannot help but believe it will happen again and proceed accordingly. That is all.

You're not the one who has a problem with what we did. She gives a pointed look at the sentinels.

"...no, I rather liked what we did," she admits.

"What scares her is the notion that you would've said 'yes' to that no matter what, because it was attention from me."

The wolf looks confused. Why would I say no to attention from you? That does not make sense.

"I just... I don't want you to feel like you need to please me in order to get it. I like you, quite a lot."

So you do not want me to please you? She tilts her head and then starts walking away from the clearing. I should return to the Den. The longer I'm here, the angrier she will get.

"I'll come with you," she says, starting back down the trail.

"I don't want you to feel like my affection for you is conditional," she explains, putting a hand on the wolf as they walk.

You're asking me to take the favor of my goddess for granted.

"Because it is."

"I don't need you as a dog begging for scraps from me. You're a much prouder creature than that."

"You're clever, and wild, and wonderful. Last night we were just beasts together and it was... there was something pure about it."

"I love you. Not as just a servant. I love you."

That seems to startle the wolf and her step falters for a bit. I... I will have to think about that.

You are one of my mates. I care for you deeply. I just did not assume you felt as deeply...

"Why did you think that?"

"I'm not offended. I just wonder if it means I've not been treating you well."

She... She jerks her head back towards the clearing. ...is constantly reminding me that one cannot assume the feelings of others or that those feelings will remain constant. Her voice briefly morphs into a perfect copy of human-Tereza's. Things change. People change. Shit happens.

I believe your giving and my taking are part of the reason I am out here and we are having this conversation, the wolf points out.

"Part of the reason, aye. But also understanding, on both sides of this."

"Part of the reason is also me coming up smelling like wolf even after a shower,"
she smirks faintly.

She is worried we have cursed you as well. She still hasn't forgiven us for what happened to our other mate.

"Even though Viv has?"

"I almost think we're better as a pack."
