Ravensblood Forest And if you long to never die

sorry i died for a while

She rolled her eyes and shook her head at his corny words, but she couldn't keep the grin from her face. Truthfully, she liked that he complimented her so often. 

She settled down and began to eat when he did, quiet for a few minutes as she pulled chucks of meat from the deer to chew and swallow. She, too, was in a good mood; it was hard not to be. 

When he spoke again, she stopped eating and offered him a tender smile. Her gaze held his, the emotion in his own making warmth bloom in her chest as the familiar fluttering returned to her stomach. I did too, she said, her lips still holding a smile. I hope there are more nights like that and days like this. With that, she picked up the leg she had been working on and settled back down next to him, making sure they were close enough that their sides touched. She nuzzled his shoulder and then returned to her meal.
