As the man entered her den, she caught his rubies in the shadows. He kept himself hidden against the corners of the walls, which caused a wave of confusion to flow over her own being. What was he hiding from? From her? No.. that couldn't be. He wouldn't.. he couldn't! No. There was something else, there had to be. Was he taken aback on what she had said to him? She wrapped her tail tightly around her paws, feeling a little more secure like that. Leaning back on her haunches a bit, she let her shoulders relax as she let out a small breath.

Her eyes focused upon the ground, attempting to sheild herself from what he would say. "You're right, my Queen. You have changed. I saw beauty in you the moment I laid eyes on you, and that beauty has since only grown." her eyes flicked up to meet his once again. He thought she was.. beautiful. "I have had my heart set on you since we had met. My daughter even has taken a liking to you. It would be my honor to call you my mate." A small smile broke out on her face. "Truth be told, I changed a bit myself. But that doesn't mean I don't love you." As he moved forwaard into the light, she caught sight of why he had been hiding. New horns had sprouted from his skull, causing her heart to beat even more wildly for him. "I do love you Themis." He loved her..

Standing up, the girl coudln't help but feel giddy. "I love you too, Mabbit." she murmured, allowing her body to float towards him. She gently pressed her cheek against his chest, eyes closing for a moment. "Ever since we've meet, I felt this.. pulling towards you. I knew you came into my life for a reason. I've loved you for a while now.." she told him, pulling back and gazing up at him. "Mabbit, you've gained horns. I love them too. They suit you." she grinned. Her heart finally felt.. full. Mabbit, King of Amberbjorne. Her mate, the one she loved more than anything. Her lover. Now made clear. "Thank you.. for loving me. For staying throughout everything."
