Serena watched from a distance along with the other beastwomen as Fay hid behind the oak tree with James. The young rabbit beastwoman confessed her feelings in hushed tones while they kept an eye out for others.
They were some distance away, so Serena couldn't hear what exactly was being said. Which was fine by her. However, there was one thing she was curious about.
"Hey Wilma." Serena whispered at the other beastwoman, making Wilma shift towards her. "If James likes her why doesn't he make his feelings clear?"
From what she remembered in the book and got from the original owner's memories, beastwomen rarely initiated courtships unless they really wanted a beastman a lot.
Typically, it was the beastmen who proposed the courtship and the beastwoman who accepted or not. Which often led to them being mates. It made her curious as to why Fay was doing this and not James.
