Onyx let out a gleeful chuckle when she licked his nose, then flushed as she touched him. At her compliments he replied a whispered, "thank you". When she spoke the last sentence his breath caught and he found himself gushing in a lovestruck rush, "I like thinking of myself as your mate, also." He playfully climbed on top of her, pressing his chest into her back so that he could mutter into her ear, "and you're a stunning vixen," in a sultry tone.Moonshadow responded almost immediately, a gentle excitement alive in her voice "I would love that." She held his gaze gently, whispering, a powerful revelation uncovered, "This is what I've dreamed about. I thought it wasn't real." She licked his nose endearingly, before slipping under his body, letting their fur touch, up on the other side where she rubbed against his, growling contentedly, before she continued "But now I'm happy, knowing I'm by you're side Onyx. The caring, kind, handsome, charming fox that you are." She eyed him head on now, a rare sign of boldness from her, so that he knew she was genuine. Moonshadow added quietly, sincerely "I like thinking of you as my mate, as your vixen."
