Blacktail Deer Plateau sweet talker

He moved quickly behind her with sudden movements, making her believe he actually aimed to harm her. Indie’s jaws clipped shut and she tensed her body, hoping she could cease his movements with her sheer willpower. It seemed to work; the portentous brute feinted back amongst the shadows, leaving her undefiled. Indie released a clenched breath with an audible whuff and craned her ears forward.

Indie had no idea how to handle this man, so she would deal with him as she did most other men: with a little bit of flattery, a little bit of sensuality.

Either way, she eagerly awaited her response. He was a creature of the night, just as Indie was… and Indie always worked better in tandem
