When the kids are away, the moms will play

It was pretty sad to think about how their children wouldn't need them one day, but a little part of her hoped that they might still want them in their lives at least a little bit. She knew that if she had the chance or the option she would have wanted her mother around for much longer than she was allowed, but she supposed only time would tell. She smiled as Siren assured her that things would settle and would be even better for them in the future and Dalila believed that had to be true. Even though the future was still clouded and uncertain with how things had been, with Siren here leaning into her on this beautiful beach it was easy to believe that things would turn around and the future was only going to get brighter from here.

She gave a soft, pleased hum as Siren pressed more tightly into her and started tracing her neck and jaw with light, delicate nibbles, making little tingles dance over her skin. A grin pulled across her lips as her sweet, beautiful Queen kissed her chin and Dalila tipped her muzzle down to catch Siren's lips, giving her a light kiss in return. "Absolutely," she agreed, nuzzling Siren's cheek happily. Siren had been her guiding light when she hadn't been able to find it in herself and now that she felt more sure on her own paws it felt more like they shined more brightly together than they did apart. The choice she made to stay at Siren's side and Siren's decision to stay with her in turn had strengthened them so much more than Dalila could have imagined and she was so deeply grateful and in love because of it.

Dalila lifted one of her forelegs, shifting a bit to lay more on her side as she wrapped her foreleg around Siren, pulling the smaller woman into her chest. She would always wonder what she ever did to deserve such a flawless, beautiful woman to call even partially her own. She left a trail of gentle kisses and nibbles across Siren's ears and crown, wrapping her up in an embrace while they laid there on the blanket with the soft sand underneath. In-between her affections she would take little nibbles and sips of the berries and wine she brought and would offer them to Siren as well, feeding her berries off of her claws and passing the bottle of wine back and forth between them until she was feeling just the slightest bit of warm, tingling buzz from the alcohol. For a while she was more than content to simply lay here, holding Siren, quietly sharing a little picnic and more than a few affections and kisses. It was everything she wanted their surprise date to be and more and silently she promised herself she wouldn't let so much time go by before she stole Siren away for a bit of time like this again.
