Eagle Crest Hallows [2]

Indigo

Master and Mistress walk back into the house and I lean against Zoey, smiling up at her.

I'm not fragile. That's not possible.

Zoey

I shrug, rolling my bad shoulder. "I know." I said weakly, my bones aching. "But you still need to be careful. That healing doesn't heal your insides that well. Only partial. That's why she couldn't heal my arm."

Indigo

I nod and sigh, rolling my head onto her good shoulder and closing my eyes.

Trust me. I know, I say, setting my hand on my stomach.

Zoey

I nod again. "Good." I smile, brushing my fingers across his cheek.

Indigo

I smile and lean into her touch, growling a purr.

Zoey

I smile wider and kiss the top of his head, sighing.

Indigo

She kisses the top of my head and I smile, moving my lips up to meet hers.

Zoey

He kisses me and I smile, kissing him back.

Be careful.

Indigo

I don't take the kiss any further, smiling lightly.

I know.

Zoey

I nod slightly, wrapping my good arm around him from behind.

Indigo

I smile and growl, nipping her neck when I get the chance.

Zoey

He nips my neck and I smile wider, watching him suspiciously.

Indigo

I smile, eyes closed again, and kiss her neck, very aware of the fact she's looking at me.

Zoey

I relax as he kisses my neck and close my eyes as well, leaning my back against a tree.

Indigo

I pull back and nuzzle my face in her neck instead, searching for her hand to hold.
