Honestly, she wouldn't have said no to the pouncing. Maurus had an odd effect on her. But she wanted things to go perfectly for them. He was too important to her. The fact that she was a monster sort of put a damper on things. It was easy for her to forget what she turned into every full moon when she was around him. She felt like it was okay for her to be herself when she was around him. No scary werewolf, just Delphine.
Delphine laughed hard at the fire elemental thing. Oh, he was precious. "You're silly," she said as she smiled and leaned closer so she could nuzzle him with her nose. What was up with all these feelings? It felt like her heart would explode.
Long, dainty fingers continued to play with his hair. She purred into the kiss, unable to help herself as her lips brushed against his.
