I'd meant to give you a fun surprise, but instead I was the one taken aback when the tears fell from your eyes.
"Bran!"
You wrapped your arms around me and held me close. "I'm okay," you said in my ear and a shiver went down my spine as your hand found the small of my back.
It had been so long since you'd touched my skin.
I hadn't parted from you for even a single day since our escape from The Unity headquarters yet it was like I hadn't seen you in years. Loong have eyes and ears and taste and smell, but they're still different from a human's and even the inputs tickle different parts of the brain. I'd thought you were pretty as a loong but now I found you unbearably delectable.
Your lips were chapped but still soft and you still tasted the same, just with a dash more sea salt.
Your fingers tensed in my hair and I heard the beginnings of a moan in your throat. Impatient, I moved lower, kissing down your neck, to see if I could lure it out.
"Mm… Ah!"
