While it was impossible for him to notice the slight droop in her mood, or perhaps the confusion his words created, there was a sense that his words had not gone down well. He pushed the thoughts aside- there was nothing he could do to take them back nor would he want to, plus it was just a feeling that he might have said the wrong thing not an actual observation. Her shrug made him chuckle softly- for all intents and purposes she was still his leader right now despite her relationship with Gideon. It would take a little while for her to fully assimilate into the family and even then she would be veiwed as Gideon's mate or Nayru the leader. He had no idea what role she would play within their own family dynamic but it was a game of time. She would be what she was and nobody could either tell her what to be or guess what would happen. What would be would be.
Her warm tones bought him back from overthinking too much about the feeling that had settled in his gut. The words were friendly and Saul allowed a softly smile in return. "Of course" He murmered before her body had enveloped him once more. For the first time he wondered what his brother and his new mate had gotten up to last night and his skin crawled in an unpleasent feeling. He had no idea that they had not consumated their partnership and the thought that he was touching the same skin that his brother may had touched in an altogether alien way to Saul was too much. Without offending her he moved back after their embrace was done and gave a soft nod at her suggestion that he should go and find Gideon. He had a lot to discuss with him anyway, without this news on his mind.
"I will. Thank you for putting my mind at ease Nayru. I'll see you soon."
He said before quickly exiting the temporary house in which they had set up camp. His sights were set on the East River, which he intended to bathe in before heading out to see his brother. The thought that he had touched the same fur as his brother was still something that he didnt know how to deal with, so washing away the evidence was probably the best course of action. Shifting into his lupus form to cover the distance quicker he made it to the river and dived in, holding his breath for a good minute before resurfacing and washing himself.
