She beamed at him, her eyes softening as she drank in the sight of him. He was the best thing that ever happened to her, even over the children because without him they wouldn't exist. She pressed her side against his and nuzzled into him, wanting to be close to him and wishing they'd never have to separate from each other's sides again.

Even without Easthollow I'd still be home at your side" she whispered softly, eyes glistening again but this time with tears of love. She suddenly remembered the other thing she needed to tell him, but she hesitated thinking it could wait for now. After mulling it over in her head she decided to breach the subject "I asked Valette for...for breeding permission. It was denied but she said we could ask again in the spring. She had good reasoning too...I think it would be best to wait" she spoke softly but moved away from his neck so she could see his reaction. She prayed it wouldn't ruin the moment.
