"I never said I wanted to rule, my sweet." The grooming halted momentarily as she met his eyes, all she would see there was devotion. Then, he leaned in to butt his head gently against hers. 

"He was a fool to war with you, and would be a greater fool to show his face in front of you again. I'll make sure he regrets such a decision." 

His gentle ministrations continued briefly before he fluidly rose to his feet to give a languid stretch, grinning down at her. "Of course I agree. I want you, not your power. Even if it meant I had to live a loners life and see you once a moon, I would not care. Still though, it would be fun to boss a few idiots around."
