Hydra grinned at the sight of Jarilo. His greeting was not missed, and Hydra snapped playfully at him. Content by his submissive gestures, Hydra's demeanor was altogether relaxed.

Hydra circled the duo loosely, licking her chops. She knew Jarilo had been practicing, but for how long had Vela had this interest?
