Nadya Tetradore

Why did her time away from the Ark seem to always be exactly the opposite of what she had planned? Nadya had expected to find Aidan hiding amongst the warehouses, lying in wait perhaps to pounce in a game of chase and a hunt. Instead she was confronted with the very man who had persuaded her to leave the safety of the Ark walls...only to never show night after night. His immersion from the shadows casting light on his broken and bloodied form caused the panther to falter. She had never before seen Frost present himself as anything less than impeccable. The scent of his blood was sharp in her nose, strong enough that she could very near taste it on the roof of her mouth. Her golden gaze tore away from Frost to cast around their surroundings. Surely whoever had dealt such damage to him wasn't so far behind. "You tell me to leave the Ark, never show, and then come asking for my help." Her tone was gruff in return, debating her option of leaving, if only to teach him a lesson in tricking her like he had. However, the ragged breaths he drew caused Nadya to sigh heavily as her decision was made. "Stay here.." As if he would be able to get very far.

The panther slunk off between the buildings back towards the docks. There was some doubt as to whether she would return as the minutes ticked by, but return she did and in her human form now. Nadya had begun to stash changes of clothes throughout the territory again and was glad for it now. "You know you can't be here. Are you so loathing to your own pack members seeing that you actually bleed that you'd risk coming here instead?" Although she began her tongue lashing(it's practically customary at this point) she stepped up to Frost, eyeing his wounds with a slight cringe before gently helping drape his arm around her neck allowing him to brace on her as she led him along the territory line. The going was slow but steady as Nadya kept the pace slow for him to be able to keep up. Where the docks turned into a pebble beach there was a little Inn situated at the end of the pathway. "Just a bit further; it'll be safer in there." Away from where her brother or Tobias may find him. Fighting someone in a fair fight was one thing but Frost was obviously already on the edge and it would have been like shooting fish in a barrel.

Nadya helped Frost up the steps before leaving his side momentarily to step through the front door. The woman at the desk looked up as Nadya unfurled her ability, manipulating the pheromones around her causing a panic to run through the poor receptionist. The woman didn't know what she was afraid of but she took off into the other room as if bouncing off a rubber wall. Nadya quickly grabbed a set of room keys then stepped outside to grab Frost and lead him upstairs to the room. It was quaint in the room with seafoam colored walls, contrasting nicely with the single queen-sized bed situated against the wall with a sea life comforter set. She had come here once when first arriving at Sacrosanct which felt like a whole lifetime ago. "Sit." Nadya deposited Frost on the bed, once more leaving him for the bathroom and returning with wet and dry washcloths.

Only now did she really pause in front of Frost, really looking at him before slowly lowering to sit on the bed beside him, twisted so one leg hung over the side and the other bent on the bed as she gently began to wipe away the blood from his skin. With every slow swipe of the cloth it revealed the full severity of his injuries. "Care to tell me what happened?" While her previous comments had been short and instructional, her tone in that moment was now surprisingly calm and soft. "You owe me a new outfit too by the way." It was a good thing the jeans and flowy top weren't very expensive as Frost's blood was now all over her side where he had pressed against her...but it didn't stop her from commenting,
