ooc;; a thousand apologies crystalee dear, sorry for the wait!

It was certainly interesting topic ground that they had shifted on to. Although Saul was techinically classed as an adult and held the badge of Jager to prove that Conor trusted him and his judgement, he was still naive to the ways of the world. Though his early youth had been tumultuous to say the very least, it had only been in terms of where all the siblings were and if they were safe or not. There had never really been any issues involving sex and therefore there was no need for the timber man to approach the subject. He wasn't all that interested in the female's he met because of their bodies and their sexual appeal- he was mroe concerned about personality right now. Although even he had to admit that seeing Siku's naked body laying on the ground had caused a hot flush to scold his body. Perhaps this was what Saluce had warned him about.

Venom-soaked words came from the petite wolf and Saul gave a soft shudder of sympathy towards her. He had been right about her reluctance to shift, but it was because of him and not her mother. Whoever him was, Saul felt a growing dislike to the fellow. Saul had never felt hatred towards anything in his life and therefore right now the strongest emotion pulling from the young Stormbringer was a vivid dislike. It was quite obvious that Siku did have feelings of hate towards whomever had done this to her. Keen green eyes caught the violent shudder that ran through her body and he reached out from his sitting position and gently stroke the back of her hand with his finger.

She quickly pointed out that, while she hadn't been born this way, she also bore no scars to say that she was Verto. It was a puzzle, because she had already said her mother had been able to shift. The gene was genetic- all children of luperci were born with the ability to shift, even if they couldnt do so until they turned seven months of age. Perhaps she just hadnt been old enough yet and thought she couldnt shift. It was puzzling to the young boy who didnt quite understand about all bodily fluids just yet. He didnt know that sex might also elicit this kind of change in a wolf. Cinnamon backed ears pricked forward as she admitted that she was lucky not to have been impregnated. Now he understood.

"Oh Siku... Siku I don't know what to say. Thats a truely awful thing to happen to you... I'm sorry to bring up such bad memories..."

Now he was sorry. Not only had be pryed into her personal life and past, he had also dredged up this horrible memory of something that should never have happened. In his mind, he didnt quite understand who would do such a thing- as sheltered as his life had been Saul really tried to see the best in others. White and tan had raised to touch her cheek once before he let his hand drop. She spoke again, making sure he understood exactly what had been done to her. He didnt really understand what she meant by impure but he gave a sympathetic nod of his head in return. He had no idea what to say to that, much as he'd been stumped by her previous admission. Fingers twisting in between each other, Saul dragged green up to see if Siku would look at him. Finally, he said the only thing that came to him;

"It doesn't matter Siku..."

He murmered softly, fingers now making patterns in the churned snow. He wanted to move on from this conversation, make sure that she knew he wouldn't and didn't judge her. A small, tentative smile came to him as he looked down at her. Despite being older than him, he was taller and bulkier than she would ever hope to be. Perhaps if he could convince her to play, she would smile and everything would be okay again. With a snort Saul sent a shower of snow in her direction, followed by a classic nip to the shoulder to tell her that everything was okay. Everything was going to be okay from now on.
