Shade was helping getting Venin's stuff to her new cave.

That's it... I think..." She sighed, bringing the last of it to one of the back chambers. "I can't express my gratitude enough, Shade. Thank you so much..." She nuzzled him again, smiling. She had grown attached to him more, and more as they were together... She even felt like he was the one for her... Possibly...

He smiled nudging back, "You're welcome." He'd grown to trust her more, and have more feelings for her. He felt like they could be one. He didn't know if she had the same strange feelings like he did. He grew fond of her the more time they spent together. He smiled. He hadn't smiled this much before.

He had no idea what he would do if he never met her, he probably wouldn't have felt this amazing feeling before.

"You know what?" She smiled, "How about you stay here for the night. My treat... Even if you live very close." She chuckled.
