She sensed the woman before she saw her, and<em>smelled</em>her just the same.  Next to nobody had senses like hers, so refined from many a year in the Underdark, then many a year training alongside Sun Soul Monks (a bit uptight, but hey, they could kick plenty of ass when the time came to it, and the weren't<em>all</em>celibate either!).  She laughed at the tall, brutish looking beast of a woman, but did still take her latter words to mind.  Reaching up, she scratched the woman under her muzzle, finding it a bit hard to scratch behind her ear unless she climbed up her body, and she wasn't in the mood to climb her... not now anyway.<br/><br/>"Ah... I love you too my little Demi..." she cooed in a distinctly playful pattern, the scratching only lasting for a moment more "And I do... sleeping is an accomplishment in preparing for a good day, as is bathing... I even tried out a new scent for you, vanilla based and subtle so it doesn't overwhelm your sensitive nose... you like?"<br/><br/>Minutes later, they were in the sitting room behind the main chapel, and before Chess was the beautiful, long-white-haired and obsidian-skinned drow goddess that was the head priestess of the temple, the 'second in command' of the temple, but head of actually running the temple when Chess was away on business, pleasure, or some combination therein.  Chess walked over and greeted her with a kiss on the cheek, kneeling down to kiss her cheek (not that she had to kneel too far with her height), and afterwords took a seat on something plush and soft right next to the woman likely four to six times her own age and yet looks to be the same as she.<br/><br/>"Oh no, didn't oversleep!  Had a lovely bath though, probably what did it." Chess replied with a smirk, sitting and reclining alongside the drowess, patting the space next to her for Demi to follow, if she chose to this time anyway, though Chess half-expected her to not do so for one reason or another "Now, you've been waiting for me, so I assume you have something of note to share?  Something for me to take care of today, by chance?  I would be more than happy to serve our goddess on a day such as this, and a night likely to be just as beautiful."
