A slight rise in alarm at Helotes distant anger sent chills down her spine in spite of the heat of the water. She slowly reached out and twined a lock of his mane around one finger as she quietly waited for him to come back to her. She had seen others in these fits in Eire and she had learned by now that in time they would return, she just wished it would be sooner than later. She felt as though she had been holding her breath until the male turned those umber orbs back towards her. She let out a slow draw of air as she smiled softly, glad to know the raging storm had passed for the moment in time.
Helotes finally sank back into the water and the tiny woman leaned against his chest as he gazed at her. A wrinkle furrowed between her eyes at his words as she shook her head. "It would take more than some coldhearted bitch to take me out of this world..." her eyes were serious as she said these words. She had grown careless in the other lands, this she knew and she wouldn't let it happen again. She tugged on the lock of his hair as she smiled slightly. "I'm suppose to worry about your hot head...not the other way around you know..." she teased, though in her heart she knew it was true, she would always worry about the temper and patience of the male. She had seen men go bezerk, she didn't need to see it again anytime soon.
The moment didn't last too long for her to worry so much though as Helotes placed her on the bank, Zana protesting slightly as he removed himself from the water and shook off. She could fill the chill cold already as Helotes spoke. She smiled at the idea and chuckled a moment before stating simply. " Wait here..." and in two seconds she had trotted the scant yards to her den in the mists of the springs.
The small woman had slowly climbed up to her den and quickly gathered the furs and blankets from her nest. She silently pushed them all out of her den entrance and down the the solid ground below. Leaping down to the furs was a soft landing and in mere moments the little woman had arranged the furs into a soft bed of sorts before returning to Helotes. "Do you think it will do?" she asked with a slight devilish look to her small face.
