Kiss me like you mean goodbye,
SAID THE SPIDER TO THE FLY!!
Her acceptance, upon hearing it the marbled king expelled a breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding. Their personal space became each others and she buried her head into his fur, Lucifer realized just how perfect she was for him. As a larger female, Lucaya was not so breakable, but she still felt small and fragile against him. Fiercely protective instinct kicks in and his foreleg wraps over her and pulls her in closer to his massive chest. There was trust, love, she made him smile and laugh when he wanted to tear others apart, made him comfortable. He had confided in this female that he still suffered flashbacks from his war-dog days. There were no secrets between them, he knew her and she knew him completely.
"Thank you, my love." That deep, throaty whisper caresses against the shell of her ear, his voice shaking with emotion and his teeth just millimeters from touching her delicate skin. He would perform the ritual marking when they got home and announced their union. She would pierce his left ear as claim, and he would pierce hers. Once the hole was made, a piece of wood would be used to keep it from closing. Haziel was more than adept at the marriage ceremony, as was Elijah, they could put the wood through as they had the most practice. When she gave him heirs, Lucaya would pierce her other ear. It was a den mother custom. The alpha female is the only one to pierce her right ear, this way everyone knew who was in charge. It was an explanation for when they got home. "Let's go home, Lucaya, there is much to do. We must prepare for the ceremony." He smiles and releases her from his grasp, rising to go back to reality with a new pep in his step.
