He closed in on the distance between them and dropped to his knees, mirroring the way her own body was arranged. Even from a kneeling position, Saul was still at least a head and a half taller than she was. With her muzzle pointing down and her mediterranean blue irises gazing into his viridian orbs, Lilin awaited the explanation that would surely come. Even the most unobervant person could have easily picked up on the anxiety enshrouding him in its embrace. "Are you alright?" Her body was responding to the tense atmosphere, her heartbeat accelerating as her mind perused what could have been the culprit of her lover's strange behavior.
Her name, spoken softly, was the prelude to his announcement. His first words were enough to force her dichotomous receivers into submission. For a fraction of a moment, the Soulstorm heir braced herself for the worst possible scenario. Her brain heard and processed his love declaration with an uncertain smile, awaiting an impending "but" to rain on her parade and shatter the moment. Their love for one another was no secret anymore; she could not fathom the reason for his nervousness. There was a brief pause, during which Lilin subconsciously held her breath, followed by an inquiry that outright stunned her. She blinked; once, twice, then everything came into perspective.
Her worried frown melted into a smile, far too amused for the sincerity of this moment. She had to purse her lips in order to conceal it and regain her bearings. "Yes," she conceded finally, pressing the tip of her nose against his. "You had me worried for a second there!" It was then that she allowed a lighthearted laugh to escape her throat, cleansing her body of built up anxiety. Her salmon pink tongue darted out briefly, brushing against the side of his maw in a greedy manner: she was his, and he was hers.
