Silver Moonlight

Romulus raised a curious brow and an amused grin replaced his smirk when Lillith asked if he liked her. A soft chuckle escaped the Armada wolf and he responded by placing another kiss to Lil's forehead. "Do I need to give you some more kisses to make it more obvious?" he asked in jest, running his paw down her neck to stroke along the subtle feminine curves of her side, pausing on her belly so he wouldn't go places he shouldn't and set Lillith on fire again. "Yes, I like you, Lil. I like you a lot. Like, this much..." He punctuated his statement with another slow, tender kiss to her soft lips, this one more of a peck than the intimate kiss they'd just shared. "Does that mean you like me, Lillith?" he asked in turn, already knowing the answer, but also enjoying teasing her too much to stop. Plus it would be nice to hear the words from her lips too.

He knew it had been a bold shot to ask to join her in bed for the night, but it was a risk that paid off in dividends. He watched that sheepish grin form on her face and felt his heart soar with eagerness even before she started speaking. "I think that sounds very nice.” Internally, Roman did a little victory dance, while externally his smile simply widened and silver eyes shone with excitement. Before he could respond, however, Lil dumbfounded him further when she reached up to steal a kiss of her own from his lips. He made a soft sound of surprise, but settled easily into kissing her back, letting his mouth press and move against hers in harmony until she pulled away.

Once their kiss ended, Roman gave a happy sigh and stared adoringly at the silver and snow fae in his arms. "C'mon, let's get to bed," he said. Romulus slowly let Lillith slip from his grasp to stand, rising to his paws a moment later. Lying on the stone balcony for an extended period had numbed his leg, but he managed to stumble back inside and close the balcony doors before clambering up onto the mattress. He found the hollow Lillith had made out of the blankets and pillows and nestled himself in, turning his body into another large pillow for her to settle into. Roman snickered and patted his side to call Lillith to snuggle into him. "Your personal cuddle pillow is ready for you, beautiful," he said with a wink and a titter.
