Nova Peak Self-made confession

Kieran was an honest man, that was for sure. Whatever else he was, at least he was honest. Kaskara treasured that about him, and her heart inflated immediately at the thought of spending her life with him. "I don't think anyone would argue that." She looked at him, really studied him, and finally took a step forward to close the distance between them. Though it was awkward, though she felt foolish, she wanted to be closer to him. They had already said the words and even if they were only courting, she wanted him near.

She reached out with her muzzle and gently pressed it into his cheek, trailing it along the bone there to stop at his ear. She pulled back then with a breathless laugh, feeling silly and girlish. She had never felt this way before. "I'm glad to be stuck with you. I wouldn't trade that for the whole world." Though her heart was only in its beginning stages of opening to him, she was glad he was there. Kas knew they would make a great team. Suddenly, her eyes went wide, and she asked, "What will Scimitar say?" She stared at her lover, mate, whatever he was now, with wide eyes.
