Kisses {WxW}

{Chapter 17}

Kisses laid awake in the cavern with arms wrapping around her. Ryuga had a light grip on her, she slept as if sleeping with one eye open. With presuming she was the leader of the pack it made sense at least. A cautious leader.

With that though Kisses knew she couldn't really bother with trying to leave. It's not that she's tried but she doesn't really see the point of attempting something she knows she won't be able to do anyways. So like always her sleep was restless just with much less tossing and turning then usual.

The cavern was much less fortunate then Mimi's, it was rock, no magic within it just some built in kitchen ware and a fireplace that Kisses couldn't tell what was attached to as the part that should be a chimney just went into the rock.

It didn't seem like the wolves were too worried with fire anyways, their fur seemed to cover them nicely to keep them warm.
Kisses wished she had the same privilege as of the moment, she fears she might have taken the house she was once in too lightly.

Kisses shivered, despite the ears and legs which felt synthetic anyways she didn't really have much as the moment kept her warm and her wet dress that was now latching to her skin didn't help at all.

She shivered, now wishing she didn't have her freak out earlier, although she didn't really know why she had her breakdown anyways despite knowing in the moment she simply had to get out of there.

"Are you okay little one?" a hushed voice which despite the grungy accent to it sounded gentle.

Kisses frizzled, spooked for a moment not expecting to hear Ryuga. She didn't really know what she was feeling right now. She was shaky and with honesty in her heart simply wanted back to what she knew. Out in the backyard of the mountain at her house or with Ebony.

Now she could understand why Mimi was so smothering sometimes. She really was taking care of her, and despite being grown she didn't have stability despite that.

Kisses shook her head, no, they weren't okay right now. She was overwhelmed and her legs kept kicking with no function as she shut her eyes so tight she thought they might stay there. A frustration not from anger but from everything in that moment.

Ryuga cursed herself. She should've realized the doll wasn't gonna be okay tonight. Kisses was almost tearing off her ears.

"Can I take it off?" Ryuga asked sitting up a bit.
"Huh?"
"Your dress, it's uncomfortable right?"

Kisses felt a little startled. "It's sticky" She moaned, seeming exhausted from her own body's reactions.
Ryuga just humed "I can tell you've been squirming this whole time. You can just take it off and no one will judge you." The wolf said, trying to be reassuring.

Kisses didn't really know, she came out with clothes and wore them the whole time. It felt weird to be naked now, she couldn't tell if she would even prefer that anymore after not doing it for so long.

The texture was becoming too much though and despite her awkwardness she sat up and went from the bottom up and taking the dress off her head.

The dress came with a splat onto the dirty rock below her and she saw the water splish just a little outwards as it hit the ground.

Kisses breathed out, she felt comfortable in her body now, at least just a little bit more then she did before. With that a sense of relief washed over her as she laid back down. She could look down at her body, see all the joints that allow her to move, the nipples on her smaller boobs and the lack of genitalia around her thighs.

Ryuga smiled just a little as she looked at Kisses soothed face and the up and down of her chest.
"Better now little one?" Ryuga asked, maybe to reassure herself then her.
Kisses nodded, she was calmer.

Ryuga tugged her closer to her, next to her bandaged chest trying to keep her huddled in warmth through the rest of the night.

The morning shown through the curtain covering the entrance of the in-hill. The light stabbed into Kisses eyes making her get up begrudgingly with a small squeak as she sat up.
"Good morning." A deep voice said behind her spooking Kisses before she turned around seeing Ryuga laying on the ground with their hands behind their back before getting up to level with Kisses.

"Morning." She responded with a glint in her eyes before looking around the cavern taking in her surroundings that she couldn't get as well of a look at last night in the dark, not that there was much to look at anyways.

"Where are the dogs?" She asked curiously.

"The pack got up a while ago to get themselves breakfast but I wanted to wait for you to wake up." Ryuga responded simply in which Kisses nodded in understanding.

While looking down at her body she could see something she couldn't before when taking her clothes off last night.
'A crack,' Kisses thought confused and in a bit surprised, it layed over her right breast and seemed to thick into her hardened skin.

"I wanted to ask about that last night but didn't want to startle you." Ryuga interjected suddenly.
She put her pawed hand on where the crack was touching it with the edge of her clawed thumb.

"Was it not there before?" Ryuga asked, narrowing her eyes.
"No." She responded, focused on the cut.

"I had this idea once to break my skin with a rock to see what would happen. Maybe this is my karma for thinking about it." Kisses said more to herself then to the other.

Ryuga growled, "I'll find a covering for you so the crack doesn't worsen. Kisses watched as she got up with a ladder of her feet as she went into the safe keeping and grabbed out a roll of bandages, the strong ones.

She wrapped them around Kisses chest at an angle making sure they were secure but not too tight to make them itch.
"Thank you." Kisses said softly touching her chest where the crack was which is now covered.

"Anything for you." They responded as if almost obvious with a softened tone as she brought Kisses up to her feet as if she was a dainty thing.

"Why though?" Kisses asked with a tilt of her head as she was taken out the cave.

Ryuga just hummed. "You smell nice."
