If not now then when?

She smirked a little when he insisted that his work wasn't noble and it just reaffirmed what she had always assumed about her father - he had been far too serious for his own good. Of course, she had only known him as an old man. There was no way for her to know what he had been like at their age, but he had always seemed to think that his time as an alpha had been for some kind of higher purpose. It was interesting to hear a different perspective on the whole affair and it made her want to pick the brain of more alphas out there to see what they thought about it. There had to be other leaders out there that were more similar to her father and maybe even others that swung even farther to the other side of the spectrum than Tyrian did. She liked hearing the bits about his life that he shared about how he had ended up in his current position and how it had kept him doing one thing in one place for a while. It cast a more relatable and personable light on the amusing and handsome male and made him even a bit... endearing in a way. It made her smile to hear that he wanted to start doing some things for himself and she nodded in agreement. She had taken pretty much the opposite path in life than he had - focusing solely on her own pleasures and desires rather than committing to any sort of responsibilities after her parent's death and was just now beginning to wonder if perhaps she should be doing something more than exploring and flirting. With any luck maybe they could both find a way to meet in the middle somewhere and find a good balance. She took a another drink from the bottle they were sharing and passed it back to him with a smile, saying, "Cheers to that!" She noticed how his gaze was lingering on her and her sapphire gaze easily met his as a slight grin pulled at her lips. She didn't really think the question was over whether he was interested in her or not - the only question was whether he was going to act on it or not. She gave him a daring glance and brought her muzzle up to his, giving him the softest, testing brush of a kiss just to see how he would react. "Do I get to be the first of your thinking about yourself decisions?" she asked as her smirk widened into a grin, shifting a bit closer to him till her side was leaning into his, her voice holding a heavy hint of suggestion to it. Her eyes lingered on his while she waited for his response, the rest of the party goers and noise quickly falling away into the distance as he absorbed all of her attention. |
