Seraphina didn't want to let this night end, holding on dearly to Elaya until she had to slide off in order for the wolf to transform back. Both of them were full of smiles and giggles, Sera's cheeks pink from the wind when Elaya had run.
"You say that dear Elaya, but would you allow me to ride you in front of the others? I assume not," Sera replied, leaning into her lover. She wasn't sure what kind of boundaries Elaya did have, but she only let people ride her in the case of an emergency like today when they needed to move fast. Normally everyone would walk, and it be rude of Sera to expect any kind of specialized treatment from Elaya unless told otherwise.
She walked hand in hand with Elaya back to the camp, thinking about what she had just said as they approached.
Kai and Lairia had been off to the side watching everyone quietly but when Tatia and Rey started getting a little too...personal... Kai offered to escort Liaria up to the top of the cliff and away from the scene, to give them both a chance to breath and perhaps join Drea and Gerry in conversation. She thanked him and agreed and the two slipped out, walking up the cliff side as they chatted about their adventures over the years.
Tatia tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, a little self conscious. She was slightly embarrassed about touching him now, knowing that he would never allow it normally. Some days she felt like he was toying with her, flirting yet not flirting with her. Yet as wise as Tatia was of this she never did anything about it. The siren would rather receive the attention then be ignored all together.
"Yeah...I feel alright," she lied, knowing he could hear her heart stammering but not wanting to talk about it, "It felt weird. You're eyes turned purple and you got really good looking. Not that I'm saying you aren't handsome right now, it's just...uh..."
Sera and Elaya arrived then, just in the nick of time to say the stuttering siren from any more embarrassment.
"Just need Duldrea and we will have that chat," Sera explained, waving up at Drea to come down from her roost with Gerry, "Amitiel, Narxis I'll need you guys to clear out for an hour. Go join Gerry or take a walk. I think Kai just joined him up there too. Rey I'm sure Tatia doesn't want you listening in too. Go with the angel and the demon please."
"I don't mind if he stays," Tatia shrugged.
Seraphina gave an all-knowing smile and shook her head, "While I'm sure you don't
mind I think it will be easiest talking to you with as few of people as possible. Sorry Reynault."
She waited till the clearing was empty other than the three of them, helping Tatia up. Moving over to the frozen cave entrance she thawed it, wanting more privacy. Tatia had control over their 'guest', who was now asleep against one of the walls, so Sera didn't worry about her. Beckoning everyone forward, Tatia passed first and she caught her arm.
"Don't force yourself on him," Seraphina whispered, not really having any wisdom on flirting but knowing Tatia's approach right then had been all too forward, "You can't force anything."
She let her move forward and turned to Elaya, grabbing her hand and kissing it secretively before Drea showed up. She was glad to have the wolf at her side, trusting Elaya with everything.
