WC:: 504 - OOC Points - 5 I know... Awwww lol!
Her answer to his question was as expected. He hadn't really thought that she would simply spill her heart out to him, no matter how much she was hurting. He already knew that these two shared a great many characteristics, and he wouldn't have done so if he was in her position. As the female lifted and moved away from him, at first he thought of it as rejection. He had approached cautiously to hint at his concern and yet she pulled away, moved herself across the room from him. His first instinct was to huff and snort - if she didn't want his sympathy or concern then fine, he wouldn't offer them to her again. But something else inside of him overrode that instinct. His eyes remained firmly locked onto her as she moved over to the pelt that lay on the den floor, and he watched her curl up onto it. He could smell the salt of her tears in the air, heard her quiet sobs, knowing she was trying desperately to hold them back, to show no sign of weakness to him. And knowing that she cried pushed aside any reaction of anger and of stubbornness.
She was upset, and this time, he didn't want to cause her harm or mischief. Now, he only wanted to make her feel better.
It was unfamiliar to him, this feeling that seemed to swirl and dance in his belly, but he went with it and seeing the cat move over to her, using her as a sort of shield between himself and Malakai, the black male made a low growling noise in his throat. It was a noise to make sure the cat didn't get in his way because Kai knew that the feline wasn't qualified to offer Axelle the comfort she clearly needed. And so, Kai moved closer to where the female had curled up, and without a word passed between them, he knew that it was comfort she needed. Nothing more, nothing less. He let his eyes wander briefly over her, the way she held herself, the way she cradled herself with her arms and again, he felt the same pang within him as he had done when he had first noticed her tears. Approaching her slowly, with the same caution and hesitancy as before, he moved right up as close as he could to her and lay down in his Lupus form, his body moving against her own, and in an incredibly rare gesture of affection, his large head tilted a little before bowing, his tongue licking softly at her cheek, tasting the tears that had rolled there previously. Another light snort left his nose, as if to remind her that he was there and that he would offer her comfort if she required it of him. She had seemed reluctant to divulge anything to him about what was troubling her and so he wouldn't ask her again. She would tell him when she was ready, if she wanted to, of course.
