Hot Springs If I lose myself tonight

A burning desire rose once more as his lover beneath him nodded her compliance. She was officially his now. It only took one command to make it so and he couldn't be happier to have ushered such a claim. Namid was a beauty like none other and he swore an oath to himself that he wouldn't let her slip from his nails like Athena had. No way was she going to leave his sight, his side. Yours, only yours. was her reply that made his heart leap, skipping a beat and his stomach churn with the fluttering of butterflies. Together they would succeed. Together they would do what ever it took to keep Fallen Tree Cove alive. After having his chin adorned with a nudge followed by a whine from her lips his dark licked crown lowered to offer her ear his sweet words once more. He enjoyed watching the way her body reacted to him. The way his words affected her. "Claim your rights, my love. Step up as the lead female." He spoke before shifting his weight backwards a step to give her room to right herself if she so wished.

Of course Vespertio knew all too well that she would not refuse and indeed step up to her place. Fire fanned behind his golden gaze, his tawny pelt maneuvering under the pale moonlight away from the pack border even further. The night was still young and there was one thing left for the new pairing to do to secure their bond and the strength of the pack. He would succumb to her wishes that he knew burned deeply inside her. The yearning all females got during the spring season. Soon, little mouths would be coming into the world. The future heirs of Fallen Tree Cove.

Vesper Fade.

It pleased her, the look of joy in his gaze at her acceptance to be his. It was like a weight had been lifted from his strong shoulders, and if she had thought he could say nothing else to make her happier she was proven wrong. He told to her claim her place as leader beside him, a place that so many looked up to. She felt the sudden weight drift onto her own, the weight of an entire pack to look after and protect. But Namid was strong in will and of mind, and a fire burned within her that could light a thousand fires to keep at bay the monsters that would threaten her land. With Vespertio next to her, she knew she could do it. She would fight to be the leader they needed and the woman that he wanted to lead next to him.

As he stepped back from her, she rose to her paws and gave her pelt a swift shake. She lifted her chin and gave him a Cheshire grin, “Oh, I do plan on it,” She winked. It was time, she deemed, for her whims to be sated. She knew that whatever was in store for them would be alright in the end, that their actions now would not go without consequence. But she was ready for the consequences, she was ready to bring new life into the world and share her bountiful love with the family they would form. Turning and trotting away a few steps she stopped and turned to look at him once more, a look that said a thousand words without a single vocalization. Slowly, her tail lifted and their final game was set into motion.
