They were still dancing, despite being far from the music. It was a primal dance, one that called more to the blood singing in his veins than to his heart or his head; it made the growl build up in his throat, and the fire burn brighter in his eyes as he searched for her in the trees. Drakien wasn't very good at this dance; he would have liked to catch her before they made it far, but she'd slipped away from him, and now he couldn't find her, catching only glimpses of her russet fur before she disappeared again.
It was in one of these momentary losses of his prey that she sneaked up behind him, her fingers brushing his back and causing his fur to stand on end as he whirled around to face her. She'd darted away again before he'd even fully registered her touch, though, and he could only rumble deep in his chest and follow the flicking tail before him.
The chase ended on the bank of a frozen stream, and Drakien paused just as she had at the edge of the woods, taking in the scene before he stepped out into the moonlight. The silver beams ghosted over her fur beautifully, and he moved slowly up behind her, carefully wrapping his arms around her waist and hunching his shoulders slightly so that his head rested atop her own. He laid his ears back, hearing the familiar, soft clink, clink of his earrings clashing together, and let out a soft sigh, unsure where to go from here. He didn't want to force her into anything; she would have to lead.
