He chuckled lightly as she reminded him of their ultimate goals before Berien had entered and so rudely interrupted them. Before he could reply to Raida's words, his eyes widened at what they entailed. His shock was quickly subsumed when her lips found his and drew him with the passion in the kiss. She was all business as she took hold of him and they both sunk from the couch to slide to the floor carpet in front of the fire. Beneath the heat of the flames and the surety of her hands on him, he was entirely out of his depth. The pain and abuses he had suffered at the hands of the humans had scarred him in ways he would dare not contemplate but in the few moments he had known this beautiful woman, she had somehow found the way to peel back the horrors and humiliations he had endured.<br/><br/>Before the fire, only the clothes they were separated them from their ultimate goal. Laying partially to the side of her, his body leaning over on hers slightly, he allowed his hand to slide from her shoulder to grip her breast through the sheer fabric of her shirt and give a light squeeze. Meanwhile, his lips parted from hers reluctantly. He leaned up on his other elbow, giving a moment to drink in the sight of her. Emerald hair fanned out around her and in the light of the fire she was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen in his life. He gave a silent thanks to the Mother Goddess for sending him such an angel. A small part of him sent a pang of guilt and remorse.. so many had had to die to reach this point. But the red desire and budding love was surely worth it, was it?<br/><br/>He allowed his body to rest more fully on top of her, seemingly sliding between her legs fluidly. He rested only a small bit of his weight on her, still retaining the use of his right elbow to balance. He kissed her again before his lips trailed from hers to taste the line of her jaw before kissing her neck and nipping at the flesh gently. The hand on her breast, having grown static after his quiet study of the woman, now squeezed once more, thumb and forefinger curling around the budding nipple and pinching softly.
