How Much It Matters

Reila didn't resist as Chimera grabbed her and pulled her in. Not for reasons that may have been before. She was trained to be giving and obedient, but with Chimera it was different. She could enjoy and accept the quality of life he gave her. It wasn't just a transaction anymore. It never was with him, but that's how she felt for a long time. Wondering if it was all he wanted from her. She was okay with that, but he showed her more.

She smiled as she found her place beside him, relaxing into his bed with much ease and looking back up at him when he spoke. His affections would always be welcomed by her. A gentle paw caressed down his shoulder where she could reach, honestly not anything intended to be intimate. Just her comfortability around him. He seemed just fine to her, she wouldn't need to ask again. She hummed a little in thought before answering him, "I'm doing great. I'm very adaptable, you should know." Was that her quiet attempt at flirting? Maybe. At least the near humorous grin back at him should have told him that.
