And just a dash of poison

Tamsyn had been so sure that when she lost Resin that would be the end of things for her, that she would only live out the rest of her days sticking close to her children and not much else... perhaps helping to raise her grandchildren if she was lucky. Kane came into her life and turned it all around. He made her realize there was still so much more life in her to give, so much more love she wanted to experience, and he gave her all of it. Of course she would offer anything she could possibly give to help him find the peace he desired and to see this chapter officially closed—not only because she wanted to help him, but also for the future of them. She wanted to move on from her past and she wanted to help him to do the same so that they could fully live in the here and now together. She smiled as his paw rested on the back of her head, looking up into his eyes with equal love and adoration until his lips claimed hers again, giving a soft, happy hum into his mouth as she tasted him and kissed him back with just as much passion. If he had just taken all of her then and there she certainly wouldn't have complained, but she was also glad when he pulled back enough to agree to let her help him, making her smile as he warned her to be cautious and expressed how much she meant to him.

"I love you too, Kane. You won't lose me. You won't be rid of me that easily," she told him with a chuckle. She knew his concern was genuine, but if there was one thing she knew her way around it was a fight. She knew when to fight, but she also knew when to hightail it and run. She'd protect herself for him and for her family. She followed his gaze as he turned it back toward the path that brought them here, considering his question of whether they should head back toward home to start extracting this poison from their newly found flowers. His alternative suggestion of enjoying the views and claiming her prize made her grin and she looked back toward him with an amused, lustful gleam in her eye. Tam hummed thoughtfully for a moment before turning back toward home with a flick of her tail under his chin. "As tempting as that is... I have other ideas for my prize," she insisted, grinning back over her shoulder at him and nodding for him to follow as she started leading them back home. "I think we need a little romantic date before we start this manhunt.. Think you can plan that for me, handsome?"
