A Simple Thank You

Walk | Talk | Think The cat said no more, but by the time Tahlia thought to look her way again she could no longer see her whether because she blended in so well with the scenery or because she had left. It was completely unsettling, knowing the feline beast had been inside the territory, well inside the borders and not even at their outskirts, and even worse now that she had lost sight of her. Was she still there, just being still so it would be harder to see her? Or had she perhaps slipped away into the trees to give the couple some time? A little sliver of a thought warned that she could very well have been getting to ground level with the intent of intervening some more, but she had to trust that Bane would defend her, as well as he could against the feral cat. She let Bane's voice distract her, her golden eyes seeking out his yet again as he promised things would be as he said so long as she agreed to the tradition he had spoken of. Yes. There was that. And as he lifted his head over hers to peer around as he stated the cat had left, she took a moment to admire his scarred physique, so dark and marred in comparison to her own. Yes, she did want him, in all the possessive ways she could, but as he brushed his cheek against her own, continuing on so that their sides pressed close together, she asked with a quiet, somewhat modest hesitance, "You are sure she is gone?" The thought of an audience was none too pleasing for her - these were incredibly private matters after all and she had a reputation to keep up. Not wanting him to think she might be having second thoughts, however, she added at a whisper, "Where?" |
