Nix followed Shae through the long grass of her world. For a Salamander, Shae had a high appreciation for forest land and all things green. She slipped her clothes off and walked into one of the steaming pools.

Nix stopped at the edge and disrobed, he tested it with a foot. It seemed comfortably warm. "Did you cool the pools down Shae?"

She shook her head and eased herself into the scalding water. "Your tolerance for heat improves every day."

"Maybe so," Nix smiled noncommittedly and sunk down into the water with a contented sigh. He ducked under the water and then surfaced to slick his black hair back with both hands. "Something on your mind Shae?"

Shae moved behind him and wrapped her arms around his shoulders, her soft breasts pushed against his back. "Does something need to be wrong? A friendship like ours needs to be tended carefully."

Nix laughed when she kissed his shoulder. He leaned back against her and closed his eyes. "You are right of course."
