Captivate me

The tri-colored woman watched as the man grinned at her and then perk up to his spoken name. When he moved closer, Soleil stood her ground. He hadn't given her any reason to move away from him and she hoped that he wouldn't. Though she couldn't understand a word the man said, she was enjoying the company and the fact that he was at least trying to talk to her. Besides she would be lieing to herself if she said he wasnt attractive.
More of the man's words would spill into the air around them, making no more sense to her now than before aside from the nickname she had given him. Quietly the woman would stare at him and wonder if he was trying to decipher wat she had said...just as she was attempting to do now. It wasnt but a few seconds when Xeph would do something she would understand. He nodded, added words she didnt know and then made another attempt at her language.
Had she been raised differently, Soleil might have bounced or squealed with joy both at his mimicked French and his exceptance of her more easily pronounced nick name. But she wasn't, so instead she would give him another sweet smile. Once mire their gaze would meat befor he would make an obvious show of looking her over from her face to the tip of her tail and back before giving her another smike of his own and then turning away from her.
Worry would cross her features as he turned away frim her and went back into the water. Had he grown bored with her already? Her unspoken question of worry was quickly answered as he bent to pick a lovely water lilly. This would change her question and facial expression to curiosity and a tad bit of suspicion. For what purpose was Xeph picking the plant, good or bad?
Soleil didnt want to feel suspicious of the man's actions, she wanted to trust him but a lesson her father taught them all kept her from doing that. His lesson was that you can trust no one, not even family. Sadly the lesson was in removing Estelle's limb and killing her mother. The only wolves she could trust were her siblings and mother and now she was alone.
Her neck and shoulders would tense as Xeph came close with the flower. She knew next to nothing about plants. She wanted to move away from him and ask what he was doing but knew he wouldnt understand her words while at the same time she wanted to snap her jaws at him. The only way for her to know his intentions would be to stand there and let it happen, so thats what she did. She stood and watched him skeptically as he pranced around her. When all that happened was a plant was placed gently on her head, behind her left ear, Soleil relaxed once more.
Slowly he would nudge the flower, she guessed he was making it perfect as he spoke in a murmured tone. His nose would gently touch her cheek, a notion that made her all warm and fuzzy inside as he spoke again. She couldnt understand his words but she knew when someone was flirting with her, when someone found her attractive. That much she knew, but what it taught her was that she had just made a new friend one that, after she found Estelle, may very well be mate material. He was a gorgeous male and man did she love his voice.
Again her expression would change to that of a smile only this one was meant to say she found him attractive as well "Merci, Xeph. C'est beau." her only words were to thank him and say that the flower was beautiful.
