Kilo studied her back, the way her tails wrapped around her.  Something wasn't right here.  How could things become so cold after a single evening in the inn.  With all of these new new people in the inn, something seemed to have changed dramatically.  He reached out and took Korono in his arms, vaulting them into the sky using his new wings.  He was pleased to find that they were powerful enough to be able to support both their weight easily.  He sparked his foxfire, and it spread, consuming them both.  As it surrounded them, he felt her essence mix with his again.  It was hot, brilliant, and burned away any other thoughts except hers.  He felt his need for her coming back just as strong.  He didn't wait for her to say anything, but he kissed her then.  Kissed her full of all his desire.  He hoped that she would FEEL his desire, more than just his words.  He had never felt complete until they had begun the ritual of mating.  When that had been taken away, it felt like a loss of his very center and core.  He decided in the moment he grabbed her and lifted her skyward that she was worth fighting for.  What they had was new and he didn't understand it, but it was essential to his very being now.  She was part of him, and if he had his way...it would be forever.
