"I feel quite well.. though a bit weak", she answered, nuzzling her cheek against Kira's arm and letting his body wrap around her, warming her up a little bit. "I always saw her as something more than a pet.. but I think she starts to love the position you teach her to like. She wouldn't if she didn't want to, w-with her personality she surely wouldn't go with it if she wouldn't really want to.. And somehow... I see her as a part of you...? It is a bit strange now that I think about it.. And what are you thinking, Master?"
Master was said in a warm tone of voice, much more like she would be telling his name. Actually.. those two were equal by now in her mind, Master and Kira. She.. wanted to be Kira's, was his and wished for it to be like that. Being with Kira made her happy, the snake male still talking to her in her dreams.. taking her to places she never saw before. Ayame loved him with all her being, that much was clear earlier and now even more.
