In truth, she would be lying if she said she didn't miss the solid weight against her, but... at least this way she was going to be able to calm her breathing and rapid heartbeat. Most likely. "Unless you are apologizing for indulging me, in which case, well, apology not accepted, I'm afraid. If anything, I do hope you'll do it again sometime."

"Before you go," she said, seeing that Aspel was about to escape - to the kitchen, most likely - she turned her back on the other woman, bundled up her hair with her free hand. She had no doubt the mark was prominent against her fair skin. Turning her head over her shoulder, she smiled slightly. Might as well remind her what she was turning down. "Zip me up?"
