She spoke quickly after him and Saul was pleased when she got it right. Green eyes almost betrayed a hint of insecurity- was she going to stick around this time? Or would he wake up in a few months time with her missing once more. However, she was still wrapped around him and he pushed back these self doubting thoughts away. He had no idea what to call what they had- he wouldnt have said mates but there was a certain amount of possessiveness between the two of them that would have probably have been defined as 'seeing each other'. It would take a while for him to trust her enough to ask her to spend the rest of her life with him. For now, they would be unlabelled and they would just have to leave everyone else guessing. She asked, in that adorable way, whether she'd gotten it right. He nodded softly, allowing their noses to graze softly. Still elevated in the air, he snaked his arms down, cupping under her rump and hefting her just a little further up his body.
"You did perfectly." He murmered, turning and thereby pulling Siku over into Ichikan territory. It was then that Hermes raised his head and gave a soft nicker. Saul smiled softly and clucked his tongue against the roof of his mouth, a gesture Hermes' had come to know as a summoning gesture. The black and white horse strode quickly over to his master and Saul held out his hand to halt him a few metres away. "Siku, this is Hermes. My favourite of the four horses I now own. Or three- Gypsy is just on loan until she gives birth." He said, thinking about the paint mare back at the ranch. In the summertime she would be going back to Dixie and Wayne and Hermes would be without a mare. Of course, the dark horse had Maia but he seemed to have connected with the paint mare a little.
