Hours Left Behind

As they continued on their evening together and their camp began to take shape, they ended up watching the sunset together with her side leaned into his. With the view they had out toward the ocean, the warm, deepening hues of the sunset glittering over the ocean and the stretch of water that filtered into the sound, it very much reminded her of the evenings she would spend on the beach back on Fenmyre's island. If it wasn't for the sharp coldness of the north she might be convinced it was even more the same. Still, it was enough to give her that feeling of nostalgia and she was enjoying watching the shift of colors across the sky with Cerberus, a little smile lingering on her lips while her head tipped to rest on his shoulder.

Once the sun set, Cerberus got their fire going, casting a warm firelight around the covered nook they had set up for the night and giving them some much needed warmth. She was already very much ready to get under the furs they brought for more than one reason so when her brother invited her in with a simple, but gentle instruction, a little grin pulled at Ruse's lips as she more than willingly slipped under the fur to join him. Snuggling up to Cerberus' russet chest was nothing new at this point. His scent and warmth were familiar and she relaxed into him as if it were second nature. Her slender forelegs slipped around his sides while her head tucked into his neck, nuzzling him affectionately as she settled into his broad, masculine frame.

There were things that she knew about that she had yet to experience that she wanted and even though she knew the result she wanted and what her instincts were driving her toward, there was some room in-between those two points that she wasn't sure about. The mechanics of physical affection were still new to her, but the desire was very much there as she pulled herself tighter to him, causing electric tingles to dance across her skin wherever they touched and their fur intermingled. She tipped her head up and began to kiss lightly along the edge of his jaw, finding her way to his lips. After a soft kiss her gaze found his, a questioning need in her pink and blue gaze while she waited for him to take the lead and guide them both to where she assumed they both wanted to go.
