It had taken Raksha several days once his abilities had returned to stop jerking awake, expecting to find them gone. He'd spent as much time as possible in tiger form, evading Torin when he did. It helped that the blond tended to let him go rather than force him. Being a top ambush predator helped since stealth was his forte. That morning found him still in the thicket of bushes he'd spent the night in. Early December was chilly but thick fur and the shelter of the brush had kept him comfortable. It was the flicker of sunlight through the leaves that woke him, golden eyes opening slowly. With a big yawn that revealed every deadly sharp tooth, he stretched and got to his feet. Sensitive paws made little sound on the grass as padded carefully out of the bushes. The sky was still painted with shades of rose, gold, and orange when he emerged, blinking at the brightness. Tail twitching lazily, he set off to prowl the property.

Hunger eventually drove him toward the house. It was quiet when he slipped inside, shedding fur for skin since doors required thumbs. He wasn't sure if the mage was still asleep or just quietly absorbed in his workshop. Either way, he made it to his room without seeing the blond. Once there he took a brief shower, relishing the hot water on his skin. Despite his natural wariness, he found himself almost comfortable in certain moments. It was a dangerous thing to do, when things could change without warning. Raksha did not trust in guarantees.

He stayed in the shower longer than needed, the rhythm of the water on his back and rush of it in his ears was soothing. It was a secret he'd never told, showers being one of the rare places he could relax just a little. They had a way of feeling private, cut off from the rest of the survival game. Finally, when he started to feel a little too warm, he turned the water off and got out. After air drying for a few minutes, he pulled on boxers and stepped back into the bedroom proper.
