Because I Love You

Walk | Talk | Think



She saw movement through the trees and closely watched the shadowy form's progress, nerves and anticipation warring within her. A part of her, the eager, positive side, was ready to rush forward and greet him and whisper her proposal into an ear to more firmly set the notion there within his mind, but the nervous part, the one that still wondered whether he was prepared for what she would ask, kept her rooted to the spot. Her tail twitched again at her side upon the sands, anxiously displaying her conflicting thoughts. Just a little she shifted her weight upon her forepaws, trying vainly to search her husband's expression for any sign of his own thoughts. Surely he must have known? It was a hard scent to miss.



Still she smiled as he shuffled his way to her and reached out to touch her cheek and muzzle with a kiss, leaning slightly into his touch to prolong it. Sweet and chaste as it was, just that simple touch alone was enough to leave her wanting more, and she turned her muzzle to offer a couple soft licks against his cheek in return. "You know why I have called for you?" she asked quietly, nervously, certain that he did but voicing the question anyway to simply get the conversation started. She was still eager, still with need, but the anxiety she felt made it easier to suppress. She needed to be sure Bane was on the same page with her before she made any suggestions for another litter.
