Every day I think of you

Syanna sat quietly off to the far side of the infirmary, counting under her breath to herself while she ran through an inventory check of the Hallows' medical supplies, running an audit on what they had following the raid. Their stores hadn't been hit very hard due to the lack of serious injuries any of their wolves had incurred, but they were running low on things like general painkillers and bandages. She'd need to venture out soon to retrieve more and ask some of the crafters to work on making more gauze and wraps for them. She'd been so engrossed in her work that Syanna didn't even acknowledge the howl calling from the border. She didn't pay attention to them on a good day, given that she had no reason to, so this time was no different. If she had been a little less distracted, perhaps she'd have noticed that the call was in the voice of Ezra, or would have heard the heavy footsteps of the dire brute as he came rushing into the infirmary. She did, however, hear the heavy thud of his armor and belongings when he dropped them to the floor, making her jump with a startle and turn to face him, expression surprised, and then ecstatic.

"Ezr-!" Syanna began to call out his name in jubilation, but was swiftly cut off when her massive boyfriend came and scooped her up in his arms and lifted her off the ground, erupting into a giggling fit while her bushy tail wagged wildly in midair. The vixen-like lady wrapped her slender forelegs around his neck, clinging tight to him while he held her to his chest. His warmth surrounded her, his familiar scent filled her nose, and their fur mingled together in their embrace, and then his taste was in her mouth when he claimed her lips in an intensely heated kiss. She murred happily into his mouth, her tongue welcoming his while they shared a long, passionate kiss to make up for the months they had been apart. By the gods, how she'd missed him! Though every lonely day and night got a little bit easier as time went on, it never truly stopped feeling like a part of Syanna had disappeared when he'd been sent away. Duty be damned, she just wanted her big, dopey dire wolf boyfriend back in her life—and now he was home!

Syanna felt the tension growing low in her belly, a heat rising up within her core the longer and more deeply he kissed her. Delicate claws played along the fur of his scruff, gripping to every part of him as if he might disappear again if she let go for even a second. She didn't know if it was because she cared for him so much, or if she was just that hopelessly addicted to him, or if absence had actually made her heart grow fonder, but the heated desire she felt for Ezra seemed stronger than ever. As he clutched her now tinier body to his, she reveled in everything, finally feeling truly blissfully happy again. Their lips parted, and emerald eyes slowly flickered open halfway to gaze at him through lidded bedroom eyes, holding his smoldering blue gaze while she ran her claws along the back of his neck again. "I missed you too, handsome," she replied, leaning her muzzle up to place a slow lick over the end of his nose. "Why do I get the feeling you're about to show me just how much you've missed me?"
