Why does it hurt so much

Incubus continued to watch her through heavy lids. Tracking her nearly every move. Admiring the way she took every step and those subtle curves of his slender body. A tiny grin tugged at his lips without him even noticing. The male was only snapped out of what felt like a daydream as she approached with a single cup of tea.

His thoughts hadn’t gone in that dreadful direction but he was glad she offered the preface so they didn’t have the chance to. Pale eyes moved to the tea, watching as the aromatic steam moved into the air above. Riva continued on with a rather significant change of subject. She was right in assuming he didn’t require such a talk. In his time as a loner there were fleeting flings he’d partaken in and most of the time his partners would also consume such a tea. Rivas next words have him quite a bit to think about. It was true Incubus did want kids and honestly he couldn’t think of anyone else he’d prefer to have them with. But this was very early on into their relationship and after everything Riva had been through with her existing family he didn’t know how she’d feel about taking that step.

After a few quiet moments of dutiful consideration Incubus allowed his gentle gaze to settle on her own. “I am at a point in my life in which i’d be happy to welcome pups into our home. It has been something i’ve been thinking about but i hadn’t found the right Wolf to settle down with.” Incubus studied her as he continued on. “That is until I found you. I can honestly say i’d love to start a family with you. But, that can be now or in the future. If you wish to sip that tea or not, I will support you.” Either way he’d be happy. The decision was ultimately hers.
