The Fox Clan is framed

Halvir slept beside Anindira and hugged her. Gavriel didn't dare get that close to her. His being allowed to be beside her was enough for him. He sat leaning beside Anindira, stroking her hair gently. He remembered Hans telling him that Anindira's feet had started to hurt and swell a little, a light massage would make her more comfortable.

Gavriel moved to Anindira's feet and gently massaged the soles of her feet. Only this, however, could make Gavriel quite happy, even if he had to be kept quiet. Such a trivial thing, but for Gavriel, this was a very valuable sweet experience for him. Just like this, but the smile won't leave his face. Halvir seeing young people who were secretly excited about small things made him touched. However, he also didn't want to give Gavriel the full chance to be in Anindira's side.
