I feel like a goddess

I' to one another as we stand, hand in hand, and it really does feel like a song It's like they're huent the closer we stand

"W-where are we going?" I ask as I slide my arms around his neck, breathless

"To fulfill resonance, my pretty one," he tells me "We will find a private cave and become mates"

Well, that was rather sudden and decisive I like it, though "You didn't even ask me," I point out, a little amused "Shouldn't you have asked?"

"What is there to ask?" He looks puzzled as he carries me away "It is resonance Our khuis have decided we areelse to be decided"

Well, he’s very confident about that “You’re lucky you’re cute, then”

"Cute?" He makes a face as he heads toward the fire that’s been built for us humans He settles ives me the cloak off his back

I curl up under it as others begin to trickle toward the fire, and I’esh sits next tohi I want a lot of daht now, they’re all tied in to him
