Horizon Ridge undress, confess that you're still mine

Pied's dismissal was abrupt, but not so out of place that Jinx suspected anything, for she could have been about to say anything at all; she would have agreed that there was nothing more the dappled female could do. The wolves were still damp, but devoid of the chill that could have killed them due to their own efforts, and so there was no point in lingering. As Pied rose to her feet, Jinx followed suit, carefully eyeing the Delta lest she do anything... But the Kesuk's suspicion was not as great as it had once been, so there was little for her to fear.

"It's not far," she said, turning herself in the direction of the den she rarely ever stayed in. It was mostly to hold her stores, and less for her occupation... She slept beneath the stars, where sounds weren't muted by dirt. "Thank you," she offered awkwardly before she began to limp toward her safe haven, away from Pied.
