Seeing his desire reflected in Terra’s beautiful indigo orbs causes a low rumbling growl to issue unconsciously from him and his body begins to react. As she returns to him resting her head on his chest Tyger eagerly yet tenderly wraps his arms around her and a sigh of pleasure escapes his lips. He starts to say something in reply to mention of using too much energy today but is stopped by her kiss. He expects it to be another quick butterfly kiss, and is pleasantly surprised when it turns out to be a long tender kiss. His arms hold her a little tighter and he returns the kiss with the same tenderness. It is difficult but he keeps his desire out of the kiss and only passing his rapidly growing affection for her through it. He is surprised that he is not disappointed in the least at not being able to act on his desire. The fact that she returns the desire is enough for tonight. “I hope that when you are at your best, I too am at my best.”<br/><br/>As Terra confesses her being uncomfortable sharing her feelings Tyger smiles warmly at her and lets her talk. He is content to hold her in his arms and gaze into her eyes as both her words and voice are soothing to him. The hand moving on his chest raises goose bumps on his skin even as it sends a warm soothing thrill through him. When she takes her eyes away from his pressing her ear to his chest again his eyes close in contentment and the low rumble of his purring starts up again. When she stops talking he remains silent thinking about her words and the great warmth they have given him. Then she says that it is his turn to ask a question because she had asked two in the shower. He laughs lightly at her comment about cheating. “My dear Terra, I’m not keeping a score card and you have volunteered answers to questions I would not have dared to ask. If you have questions ask and I will answer. For me now you have already answered all that I need. I’m sure I will have questions at some point.”<br/><br/>“I’m not sure why I am so drawn to you either, but drawn to you I am. It started on the transport, something about the way you looked at me when I transformed. I would have set with you after my display, but the mercenary took the seat before I could. I really did not want to start exploring this attraction with her so close. I figured I would get another, better chance, but never imagined we would be assigned the same room. Now I am finding a deep affection growing for you as well with being more comfortable with you than I have ever been with anybody.” He gives her a squeeze and kisses the top of her head. “I’m overjoyed that you would welcome me to your world and you can see a future with me, because I have already started thinking about a future with you.” He laughs at himself. “I guess I have already made that clear by saying I would return with you instead of going back to my own world.”
