Bedazzled No More

There weren't many words to say before they became obsolete, and both wolves just relished in the other one’s presence. After being apart for so long and believing that she might not ever get him back Lil could ignore everything but Roman being in her arms. Their eyes met and after everything they had been through that perfect moment was everything to Lillith. Being able to gaze into those vibrant silver eyes meant the world to her, there wasn’t another wolf that meant more to her than the man before her. She adored her family but now more than ever Lil was certain Roman was her other half. He helped her blossom, to see the world, he encouraged her out of her shell.

Her family were important, they were the cornerstone of her being, but Romulus was different. He stayed by her side and denied himself when he thought it would hurt her. He showed her over and over again that she was his priority, that he adored and cared about her like she never deserved. That a stranger could mean so much to her after only a few seasons of being together. Romulus carved a place in her heart and she never wanted him to leave it. She didn’t know what love really felt like before him, but she knew it was true with every fiber of her being.

She showed him in the way she kissed him now, and with no hesitation he returned her affection. Deep and longing, the result of denying their affections for so long when it felt like the harrowing end was coming. His lips pressed to hers like they belonged there and she fit against him in perfect fashion, as if he was made to hold her like this. He pulled her close, and heat flared within her as fiery passion ignited in her belly. Lilith was still nervous about being burned but it was all ignored because she finally had her Roman back.

She gasped for breath when he shifted, grasping hold of her and effortlessly shifted her back onto the mattress she had just left. Like she weighed nothing and he hadn’t just been deathly ill. Lil blinked open her garnet gaze as Romulus slipped in beside her and settled easily into the plush bed beneath them. Lilith grinned, feeling her stomach flip flop with nerves and excitement as he took hold of her again, and easily rolled her onto his chest.

Roman was warm and soft beneath her. Lilith relaxed against him, smiling even as his paw touched her cheek and guided her back into a sweet kiss. Garnet gaze closed blissfully as she descended against his lips, soft little hums of pleasure rising from her chest as he claimed her lips and she reveled in the savory taste of him. She couldn’t say how much relief she felt, the feeling was indescribable. He was everything she wanted and needed and the time apart had truly revealed that fact.

"I love you, Romulus Armada.” Lillith reminded him as she pulled away only just far enough to speak against his soft lips.
