Aelena's smile grew at seeing the normally stoic Druid smile. It made her feel good to bring him joy even if she was pretty sure that she had wind burnt her tits. Still it was worth it. Iylldrraen had no idea how long she had wanted him. There was no way he could know that from the first moment she had met him, even though he chastised her foolishness for healing others before herself, she had been drawn to him. He had seen her as a child then. Now she would remind him that she was a woman every time the opportunity presented itself.<br/><br/>She saw him touch the icicle pendant and she could not keep the memory from welling up in her mind. She remembered how excited that she had been to show him and how he had hugged her tightly in his strong arms. He was proud of her and she had given it to him as a thank you for him saving her life. She had wanted him to have a reminder of her no matter where his journey took him.<br/><br/>Even without the token he had given her in return she would never have needed a reminder. The Druid was never far from her thoughts. The few men she had been with were all, in a sense, lesser versions of the elf or had some characteristics in common. They always fell short of the real Iylldrraen but had made for enjoyable companions. She wondered if he had taken any lovers. He had needs and it had been a long time since they had seen each other. Part of her hoped he had, if only to ease her worry that he would think less of her if he had waited and she had succumb to her needs.<br/><br/>The thoughts were interrupted when the griffon dipped, beginning the descent into Auberdine. It still stung to see the place in such ruin. It seemed that for all of the good that they did, it was never enough. She shook off the bleak thought once they had landed and slipped from the griffon's back. Iylldraaen was beside her in a second and she welcome his embrace although her eyes did widen when his fingers stroked around the base of her tail. It was a sensitive area and he knew it. The grin on his face told her that it was no accident.<br/><br/>"I do like ...to challenge you. It's how we stay at the top of our... Game." She struggled to get the words out with him tormenting her in such a way. Pleasant tingles ran up her spine and Aelena had to bury her face against his chest to muffle the little whines that flowed from her mouth. How was it that he could simultaneously make her feel ready to take on the world and have her knees shaking so bad she could barely walk?<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
