I Steal a Few Breaths From the World, For a Minute

The lightheartedness that scald brought to her life whenever he was around was strange. Life with her family was always tense and showboating. Sure they had each other’s backs but they’d be the first to stab you in it to get a leg up. But with scald, she felt at ease. Like when she’s alone with Ze, almost. It made her feel gentle. Watching the fireflies dancing around him she let out a little hum. As if she were thinking about her answer. ”i dunno. You didn’t come find me” she teased.

She laughed at his question of her scent. She knew that her cousins, brother and co’s scent all danced across her fur now. It was something she was proud of. And from anyone else she might have gotten defensive of the question. But She didn’t tense up or shove him away as his nose found its way to her shoulder. Rolling her eyes playfully, she returned the favor. Leaning in to his shoulder now to drink in his scent and that of his pack. ”I mean, same for you. You’d definitely smell better with my scent draped around you… wanna trade?” she said her voice slipping into a huskier tone as she stared at him with lust.

She wanted nothing more than to close the gap between them. So when he leaned into her space she readily pressed herself against him. ”if staying in shape for me i/ on your mind. Come see me more often, I can help with that endeavor” she cooed as she returned his earlier action, licking his cheek now.
