Greatwater Lake Not the Man I Once Was

It was easy to forget all her previous reservations while in his embrace, and even easier as he offered his reassurance that he would never not want to see her and that he would never want things between them to be so bad that she would want to kill him. His words sounded so genuine that in the back of her mind, she wondered if they were honest, but she pushed the doubts away. If she was going to keep seeing him, then she needed to trust that he was being truthful with her. Or at least try to trust him again; it was easier said than done.

Of course, it was even more difficult to remember why she had been angry with him in the first place when he was offering affectionate licks and nips down her neck and over the fur of her shoulders. The tension finally left her muscles and her expression softened against his neck. Neither would I, she murmured quietly into his fur. 

She was quiet for a few moments, nuzzling his neck some more before speaking softly. I was going to stay here for the night before returning home. Do you want to stay with me? She was unsure what he had planned to do originally, but she much preferred spending the night with Donovan as opposed to spending it alone with her thoughts.
