Arla watched the way his ears swiveled and turned. Although she had less and less Sephi blood with each generation, she recognized the movements well enough. The involuntary nature of them, and the story they told all on their own.
She felt the tips of his fangs against her lip, but didn't pull back. Instead, she leaned in and captured his lips with hers, letting the kiss linger for a moment before making good on his request. They weaved their way through the ship until they arrived in the bedroom, and in an instant it became very clear that this was not simply a wide sided desire that lay with her.
He pressed her back against the wall, and she took in a deep breath at the feeling of his hands touching her. It had been far too long, and she returned his kiss with a hunger she didn't expect.
He pulled her shirt away, and she turned the tables, spinning him back against the wall only to see him stop, her sensitive ears picking up the sound of his mumble and she paused, following the gaze of his eye down to the scars that covered her skin.
She simply looked straight at him, unwavering and unashamed of them. They were the price she paid for the life she led, and she... didn't regret it.
Is there a problem? she asked, her voice almost taking on an amused tone at the sign of his surprise.
