Lost Continued (Teagan) - The Cages (ST/Teagan)

Her gaze full of heat found his, "I wouldn't be upset if you did..."

"It is a part of who you are.." she shrugged as if to say she accepted him as he was.

His reply earned a smile, "What part of any of this isn't?" she asked him teasingly.

She smiles a wicked smile... "To let you in on a secret... I like it." she whispered, her lips just against his as her eyes danced with wickedness.

"These gifts, in my society earn you a label, they are normally bestowed upon faithful servants. Not just lovers.." she reached up and caressed his cheek once more. "The word is ghoul." she said.

She nods, "I just don't want you taken off guard if that word is used before you. The fact that you have tasted my blood is the only reason we can be together with out me breaking some serious rules..." she snuggled closer to him as she said this trying to make him understand.

She held him close, "What are you thinking?" she asked him softly her idle hands stroked his back.

Pausing she looks up at him with concern, "What troubles you?" she asked.

"Please?" she asked softly, "I want you to always feel comfortable talking to me.. about anything." she then took that moment to bump her head against his shoulder like the large cats they both turned into.

She nodded, "Perhaps not the thing to say, but I am...old...and there are things I am still learning about who I am..." She offered.

"All your long life you will learn. You will never cease to be learning. You well always find new questions. sometimes you will find answers, other times no. I am more then willing to help you any way I can." She offered a reassuring run on his back.

"Come, I want to take you home." She said with a smile.

She took his hands but then stepped away with a smirk as she shifted into panther. "Any day now." She teased.
