Lost Creek Hollow How can something so small be so frustrating?

Howl's words caused a tightening in her heart, and she gave him a slow, soft kiss on his cheek. After, she met his gaze again and held it for a moment. "I'm glad you think so. I feel the same way," she replied softly. "I don't mind listening if you ever need to talk about it, though." She wanted him to be able to freely discuss his feelings with her no matter what. 

Unable to control herself, she nuzzled his throat again. She fit perfectly there and was pretty sure she could stay there forever.
