She had thought Théadan would be pleased with what the woman had said about him. She knew he was nervous about how the Khluri might act toward him, so it was nice for him to have a positive experience. He relaxed against her though, his arms sliding around her waist to hold her to him, and Navia listened intently as he admitted he might have been a little paranoid. She answered it with a shrug, knowing she likely would have behaved in the same way if the roles had been reversed. What she cared more about was the little kiss he gave her before such an admittance, and the one that came after. The second kiss was far more satisfying, sating the twinge of desire that had come upon her when coming close to him, and Navia sighed quietly when he allowed it to end.<br/><br/>He did not go far, much to her joy, and was teasing her with another light kiss to go along with taunting words. She grinned up at him for it, liking how playful he was and the little added arrogance to his words. It was not often Théadan acted in such ways, he was normally so humble and gentle, that it was funny for her to see him having fun with pretending to be cocky. And exciting that he paired all his playing with kisses. She received yet another and her patience with the lighter, brief kisses ran out. Not content with simple brushes of the lips, her hand caught the back of his neck gently and held him so she could draw Théadan into a deeper kiss. The taste and feel of him flooded her senses, a small moan of delight left her, and her tongue sought out his. With where they were and their proclivity for losing control of their urges around each other, Navia wisely did not allow such a kiss to last longer than a few long beats before she was regretfully pulling back from him.<br/><br/>The temptation to have more was there, bright in her dark eyes, and Navia stared into his pretty greens for another instant before she grinned at Théadan and pulled back enough to lower and allow her feet to rest flatly on the ground once more. “Funny, charming, handsome,” she agreed before smirking and bringing a hand to her lips so her fingertips could brush at the saliva that had gathered from the deeper kiss, “And so free with his kisses too. We’ll have to see what else you’ll be so giving with later when we find that bed.” Navia sent Théadan a quick wink, then pulled free of his hold, knowing they needed space if they were to continue with their shopping. They would have the evening to look forward to, hopefully in her friend’s home. They would have return Sura’s Necklace, have a good meal with good company, then they could retire to a real bed large enough for the two of them.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>Another hour passed of them lost in the aisles of the Khluri market, enjoying the different sights, smells, and tastes the different booths provided them. They found that map Théadan had decided they needed and upon seeing it, Navia remembered how he had given her the one his aunt had had tucked away in her belongings. She said nothing of it, only briefly wondering whatever came of it after she’d left it in Théadan’s chambers in their haste to escaped Nygaard. Food had been next on the agenda and after she had briefly considered them grabbing a meal they could eat while they walked, she suggested they find something they could eat once they were out of the city so Wyndagar could use the time to have a bit of exercise on his own. Extra food was bought for their journey, packed away on Wyn’s back, and they asked for help finding a horse to purchase. After one of the food vendors had described where to go, Navia was practically bouncing with her excitement of finally having a horse of her own again. With them leaving the innermost portion of the busy market to head toward a stable that had been built beside a store, Navia pushed her hands through her hair both to smooth it and to help expel her excited energy. “We have to take Wyn in with us,” she looked first at Wyndagar before her eyes went to Théadan walking beside him, “We have to make sure he likes the horse. And hopefully it’s already named or you'll have to pick one. I’m terrible at names…” She paused before smiling sheepishly, “Have you learned yet how to say ‘horse’ in Khluri? It’s<i>azva…</i>”
