Blackfeather Woods There's no such thing as sweeter a sting

Their alliance was sufficient on its own, but having loyalists and followers who believed in their claim was the most important weapon for their rise. Averna and Astara were Melonii blood, Aries was as good as a son to Nyx and Relmyna was malleable enough to count her in should her connection to Kove not be too serious. They were sufficient, they were a strong foundation to what Blackfeather Woods needed to become, and the only thing lest was figuring out a way to place them both on top again.

Lets not worry about that now. We will both be ready when the time comes, said Damien in response to Nyx's brief on her heat cycles having noticed her worry and discomfort. Nyx was a flawless specimen and Damien doubted their union would come with complications. All they had to do was wait, be patient, and their commitment to Blackfeather Woods' cause would be rewarded with healthy spawn, but everything great started from the bottom. They had to take a few baby steps before they could fly.

But oh, how impatient was his lover.

It took her but a minute after Damien lead her to their nest for Nyx to attempt her own advance, nuzzling Damien's neck lovingly, slowly. Physical contact was a delicate matter for Damien, having had few and ever-uncomfortable encounters through his life. While Asterr had been a pleasing woman their union had only been one of pure instinct and beyond their friendship and the secret daughters that carried their blood they shared little else. And there there was the whole drama with Cicero, which had ultimately driven Damien off his rails and deep into a darkness he wouldn't have been able to come out of on his own. This time it was different. Nyx meant so much more than just a friend, and even plenty further than a lover. Nyx was Damien's deepest desire that had grown from a cold promise of political interests to deep love like Damien had never felt before. He had seen her become a woman, he had seen her become his woman, and now only his fears stopped him from letting her in. But he refuses not to her touch and with a soft whine he allows her to run through his fur with warm kisses. At some point Damien gathered enough courage and pressed against her himself, running his nose up her neck and planting a shy kiss upon the base of her right ear, and for the first time in his lifetime Damien felt pleasure.
