the echo of the sounds she had made was something he recalled again and again as they stood together. he drew his teeth carefully over the sensitive edge of her ear but said nothing.

peace for a time before they parted and he sank down upon haunches turned weak with the effort and pleasure.

and then the shame did begin. ruenna had not even been gone an entire month and he could not have waited. lady meadow had offered him a chance that he still wanted to take despite the selfishness of that thought. he had succumbed to emotion against the mastery of his skill.

germanicus was silent now. he waited for her to speak and realized quite belatedly that he had never truly looked at her before this hour, mostly due to the crown of brambles in her aura. 

would she return to wearing it now?
