Meadow

She could feel the warm caress of his gaze before she saw him, though she could have turned her golden eyes towards him much sooner she rather reveled in the feeling letting it slide down her spine until she could hear his approach. Though she would not have much cared who had taken her very obvious bait, she was not displeased as she let her gaze rake over his delicate frame until they landed on his angular face. Not displeased at all, she purred to herself as he issued what could only have been a greeting though the language was entirely foreign to her but some things simply have a universal sound. At least it was followed up by something she could understand, for it would be rather a loss if she had wandered somewhere that spoke some unintelligible dialect and she couldn’t enjoy the compliments he and others would soon be paying her. Though she could understand his words their meaning took her a moment longer to decipher until he turned his head towards the fading sun. Her ears flicked forward in understanding as her tails swished gently at her hocks at the intriguing specimen which had been delivered to her.

“Why yes, she was kind enough to lead you here to find me.” Her velveteen voice was as silky as her mane and twice as thick as she batted long eye lashes towards him. As her nostrils flared and she caught his scent on the cool wind there was the most intriguing mixture of sun and sand of a different kind that that which littered the beaches she had arrived on not long ago. Getting the salt out of her glistening coat after it dried had been a hell she was not eager to soon revisit, and leaving it lay was utterly unimaginable for the prim woman. “It is a rare gift in times such as this.” Her lips curled into a soft smile and whether she meant the sun or herself was anyone’s guess. Though if that someone knew her the answer would undoubtedly grow much clearer as Talisa rarely had thoughts of someone other than herself. While beauty might not be her only talent it was the one she enjoyed the most and it had yet to fail her.
