Utu smiled softly seeing that Misha accepted the rabbit and even the rabbit didn't seem to object.

"I hope that they both will live happily," she said softly looking at the wolf. She could see that he was a little sad about the rabbit leaving and felt pang in her heart. Was it her who had ended up chasing the rabbit away and making Thorn sad? She didn't like that thought at all, she never had wanted to or meant to upset him in any way. She glanced back at the den where the rabbit and Misha had disappeared to blinking softly.

Thorn left the scene with a small smile at his lips before once more walking back to their own den clearing it a day is off. His paws leaving a soft paw print this time more gentle then they were like the weight been lifted off his shoulders. Thorn wanted to say something towards her but decided it's best to leave it let her think it out herself. Once they reached the den they called home thorn went in curling himself near the rocks

Utu found it odd that Thorn had become so quiet suddenly, but noticing his smile, she decided to let it pass and instead followed him back home. She entered the den almost right after him before she stopped and looked around. The scent was still rather strange, but she could smell both of their scents mixed together and that brought both comfort and good memories to her. Utu then walked to Thorn before she folded her long and thin legs neatly beneath her and laid down next to him.

Thorn was surprised at her sudden movement but slowly nuzzled himself near her letting her head go into his paws laying on top of her one like a mother would do to their young this time it was more protective. He closed his eyes finally resting with utu all his worries moving into the night. His body blocking the rocks from her letting himself take the damage of having kinks in the morning just happy that she is still here with her .

Utu was surprised when Thorn was being affectionate with her, but she welcomed his actions and lowered her head down on his paws. It felt oddly safe when someone was resting their head on top of yours and both the warmth and the sense of security made her to slowly drift off to sleep without needing to fear for her safety for once.

Eventually both fell asleep not realizing what awaits one for the night . Both felt safe in the den that have called home . Thought the night both were in a deep sleep ocancally moving and slight sleeping snoring that thorn makes but even then it didn't brother them.

Yellow bright eyes looked into the den sniffing a prey and predator together " who would have thought these two would be together" he thought before gently walking towards the den leaving cat paw prints into the dirt once he was near enough he reached a extended arm claw tapping utus head trying to wake her up but not thorn once he realizes this won't work for her he gently lower himself so she can sniff his scent before once again tapping her over until her eyes open looking at the jaguar

Utu felt someone poking her head, but she was too sleepy to really care. Instead she made soft noises in her sleep snuggling her head more under Thorn's chin. However, when a familiar scent lingered into her nostrils, she slowly started to wake up and open her eyes. Sniffing the air, Utu slowly pulled her head away from under Thorn's chin very careful not to wake him up. Once she had completed her task, she turned her head slightly towards the smell and her eyes opened wide when she saw the jaguar right next to her. Fear rushed through her, but she didn't run away or didn't try to escape, instead her ears flickered a little showing her nervousness as she looked at the jaguar with her gentle dark eyes.

Thorn didn't wake up feeling the movement but figured she was hot from his fur he went back to sleep slightly moving a little.

Jaguar eyes glared before declaring that utu should get up and walk with him. " Don't worry Lamb I won't eat you just follow and listen " he says before turning towards his own territory ways even his body is all lean but she never had the chance to look closely at his pattern on his fur or how he holds power in his body language. " Come on " he says before walking away somewhat fast but slowed it down to a cat walk for her after realizing she can't keep up. " So ....how you and thorn...." His words sounds nervous like he's trying to make small talk but doesn't know how to

Utu was still really scared, but she pushed herself up and for some strange reason that even she didn’t know, she decided to follow the jaguar. It wasn’t difficult for her at all to keep up with the jaguar’s movements, if she so wished. However, the fear made her movements slower but every once in a while she kept glancing the jaguar to show him that she indeed was listening.

“My herd left me behind, but Thorn didn’t,” Utu said softly yet nervously.

" even if the difference is there...you do realize wolves eat deer ...so why stay when you can find a new herd ....if they do accept you ... Don't you have to migrate to somewhere and so does he if he has a family? Jaguar asked seemingly wanting to know about the subjects. Even himself has to admit it would be hard if utu did stayed with him already knowing the difference they both have ....and the accident trying to eat her .

“I do,” Utu said softly lowering her gaze. “Every moment my instincts tell me to run away fast and leave him, but I don’t know why I can’t do that,” she said softly. She seemed to ponder his words about migrating, but had never heard her herd or mother mention anything about that.

“My kind… we don’t migrate,” she said softly. “He told me that his family didn’t want him either, but I don’t know, if he has any other family apart from his herd… I mean his pack,” the female said. She thought about finding a herd of her own and even if the thought was tempting, it also was a scary thought. She didn’t like being in big groups and didn’t know if there were any smaller ones around the area. Besides, if she walked around alone, she would be very easy target, but being with Thorn she felt a lot more safer.

“It feels safe with him…” she whispered.

" safe ....with a wolf that can show his fangs ! Show his claws ! ....you must be really dumb enough to travel with him what would your old herd say about you now ? Your no longer domestic you are a wild deer now any hunters coming for thorn can use you now ... remember deer utu there is larger predator coming in this territory myself or thorn can't keep protecting you .the jaguar words seem to sting slightly as he told his own two cents but his body language is telling there's more he wants to talk about but can't seem to bring him self

" Utu I didn't come to fight with you...I came to ask why him"

Utu’s ears pressed against her neck and she lowered her gaze to stare at her hooves. She didn’t like it that the jaguar was calling her dumb. However, she had always been a wild deer having only met humans during the hunting season when they had pointed their weapons at her. She listened the jaguar’s words silently biting back the tears that were burning her big and dark eyes. Did the jaguar mean to say that she really didn’t have home with Thorn? She knew that her old her wouldn’t want anything to do with her, that had been the case even when she had been shut outside of the herd. She had never truly belonged there, or more like they had never really taken her as a part of their herd due to her being different from the rest. It had eventually led her to search for companionship elsewhere and that was when Thorn had appeared to fill the void.

“I… He filled the void there was when my herd didn’t want me,” she whispered.

" utu why don't you find your own herd or.make your own surly there's more like yourself out there ...utu just be safe around him he's been good now but what if or when if he doesn't want you around anymore then what ? You will have no one again. The jaguar began cycling like a predator wanting to strike but his whole body demorned is showing he's trying to show her something or tell her with his body " stay with someone who can protect you and not some lone wolf ...like myself for an example I can protect you from other larger predator and won't give you up like he did or let me join your own tiny herd.
The jaguar side but still seem to be wanting to say more that is more compassionate but even he can't change

Utu listened the jaguar closely. It almost felt like he was speaking directly to her deepest fear and insecurity; what if Thorn really abandoned her one day? She didn't want to be alone, she wanted to feel that someone cared about her. She wanted to snuggle against someone and feel safe and protected. It also still hurt that Thorn had "given her up" to the jaguar even though it had only been for distraction. She lifted her gaze up to look at him when he said that he wouldn't give her up. Could she trust him? However, when he suggested joining her herd she hesitated a little. She was really unsure, however, he had been kind to her, but what would Thorn say, if he knew that they were talking?

Of course, Utu like any other deer lady, dreamed of meeting a nice male with whom she could start their own herd, but she had never allowed herself to think those kinds of thoughts too much. Yet again she pushed those thoughts out of her mind as she looked at the jaguar trying to figure out, if this was just a trap or something more.
