so we meet again

He remembered her name and the woman accepted it with a grin and a single nod. "Well I think it's a nice night at least. Good food. Decent company." The dark woman had found it just as humorous that her brother had introduced them as though they didn't have intimate knowledge of one another. He admitted to being distracted and she grinned anew. She had been acutely aware of his position in the crowd as well. He'd carried out the ceremony nicely, a beacon in a sea of faces that would soon be forgotten.

Fel slid to her belly in the soft grass, toes flexing as she gave a little stretch. "Glad to have it over with?" The woman's head gave a slight tilt. "There was talk of you being next." A few voices had muttered about the alpha not having a mate or an heir. Amusement glittered in her deep ruby eyes. Fel was the last one to give in to gossip. Most of it was just the musings of the bored and dissatisfied. That didn't mean that she ignored it. Each little tidbit was filed away just in case she needed it for later use. "What a pity that would be," she purred as she crept forward on her stomach, splaying hind legs out behind her. The epitome of comfort. Fel was at ease wherever she went and this orchard was no different. The woman's thick tail flicked slowly back and forth at her shapely hips.

Bits and pieces of their night together flashed through her mind. Someone else had stolen his virginity, but she'd been the first to give him choices. The first to give him the power to decide. To give and to take whatever he wished. Fel liked to think that she taught him a thing or two about both giving and receiving pleasure. She was rather proud of that. A silvered brow arched as she turned her attention to him. "And what adventures does the rest of the evening hold for you?" She'd already told Pyrrhic that she would find her own way back. Her family knew how she was and if they didn't, then they weren't paying much attention.
