Huai Xu had an arm around Su Yu, gently stroking her thick, jet-black hair. He looked down at her tenderly, his voice exceptionally soft. "They and the cubs went out to get familiar with the surroundings. We're in the cave Kasen used for resting when he went out hunting."
"The cave is near the summit, well-hidden and very clean. We've cleaned it inside and out. You can take a look later and see if there's anything else you need done. I'll take care of it for you."
Barring any surprises, they would be living in this cave for some time, so of course they had to create a comfortable living space for Su Yu.
Su Yu's body went limp, and she leaned her full weight against him, humming softly in acknowledgment.
Her soft, pliant state was more than Huai Xu could resist. His large hand with its well-defined knuckles gently cupped her chin, tilting her head up as he leaned in and pressed a kiss to her lips.
