Northstar Vale Lilac's Serenade

This shouldn’t be happening. Was all he could think of as she leaned into him, as she joined him in a slow dance of affection and longing. Her need and want, matching his own. He circled her, his body caressing hers. His running down one side of her delicate frame, and up the other side.

We shouldn’t do this. He’s mind continued to scream at him. But he couldn’t dare to pull away, couldn’t fathom separating from her. The revelation that she had feelings for him, should have shocked him more, and probably would once he wasn’t in such proximity to her scent. Her pheromones.

“Then don’t.” He spoke boldly, more sure of himself in this moment than he had ever been. He didn’t want her to hide from him, he wanted everything. His possessiveness getting the better of him. There was no self-restraint left, only her words could stop the inevitable. “I love you.” He hadn’t meant to speak. He hadn’t intended to reveal his heart, still confused by his feelings for Hiromi and the situation with Shi. But in this moment, there was no denying the love that he felt.
