Where There Is Desire

Indigo enjoyed the way her paws entwined in his mane and she held onto him. Being needed was a feeling he didn’t get all too often. Indy felt like he was the dependent one so much more often than not. Knowing he provided her with protection, affection, and that she truly wanted him beside her was enough to warm his hardened heart. Being here alone with her was easy and made him feel like his problems weren’t so heavy anymore. However much his actions could lead to even more heartache if he only opened his eyes. The yearling should have realized where this was heading, he knew what to expect (mostly) with his relationship with Aslatiel and he counted down every day until he was able to see her again. Duchess was his welcomed distraction. His warmth on the coldest of days.

The kiss was tempting and caused the yearling’s skin to become much hotter than just enjoying each other’s warmth. Thankfully she pulled away as Indigo was growing uncomfortable with the pressure. It wasn’t a bad feeling, but a frustrated one. Indy knew there was something missing but he was willfully ignorant. Her dual toned eyes looked down at him before she made a confession, yearning for more time together like this. Indigo smiled, and nodded slightly. ”We will,” he promised her quietly.

She nuzzled under his chin comfortably, pressing against his vulnerable throat. Indigo’s dark lips pulled up into an easy grin as she asked about the rest of the day. The pair of them had woken up slow and already had their tour, but beyond that only his patrols were on his itinerary. ”We could get something to eat, and then later we could do to the plains.” He still wanted to see the sky, but maybe it was better the sky was a perpetual cloud. He’d be forced to think about Asla too much. ”Alternatively there’s still the dungeons to explore.” He chuckled lightly as he rested his massive paw on her shoulder.
