A coy smile spreads gently across my face as I advert my gold and green gaze. This older male does not smell familiar to me at all – despite his colors being eerily similar to my own. I am certain that we are not related and thus my lustful wiles will continue.
”It isn’t so unfortunate for me, I think.” I speak softly, a tinge of desire tainting such innocent words.
My first winter has grasped me tightly and it isn’t going to let me go anytime soon. It will be one to remember, that I am sure of. Perhaps I do not know of what game it is that I truly am playing but those thoughts elude me for now. I am enjoying his attention just as much as I can tell that he wishes for mine. I begin to step closer to him, dark paws delicately placed upon the earth in the instance that he may reject my closeness.
I do not speak again, I only measure his reaction to my pursuit of his company. I wanted – no, needed – a closer proximity to him as nature demanded it. I was short and to the point, his words of having no mate nor imprint enough to secure his position as my suitor should he want it. I rub my neck and chest lightly against his broad shoulder as I turn from him. My tail flags to the side and I look back with an expectant stare, if only he would get to his business.
