Emma headed back to her room carrying the scent of Shalimar all over her. Her skin still tingled at having been so close to the feral all night. She'd wait to shower as long as she could so she could enjoy the sensations of her as long as possible. She never felt so alive as when she was lying in the feral's arms. When she felt Shalimar hold her close she felt like it was where she belonged. She felt like she was born and molded just to fit perfectly into her arms. Now that she was apart from the feral she felt out of place. Felt like all she wanted to do was go back home. She knew she couldn't sleep alone another night after experiencing an evening with the feral like she just had.

She made her way into her room and began to think of ways she could tell the feral how she felt. She didn't want to just blurt it out, but somewhat ease into it. She wanted a situation where she could judge the feral's reactions as to whether or not to proceed. She wanted a sure fire way that she could "seduce" the feral and not be rejected. She couldn't imagine what she'd do if she was ever rejected by her. Of all the mutants, threats, and dangers they'd faced together she was much more afraid of Shalimar because she knew she could hurt her the most. She knew Shalimar had total control and hold over her heart and if she wanted to could break it in a second and paralyze the psionic. She was determined not to let that happen.

She headed over to her drawers as an idea came into her mind. She reached into her top drawer and removed one of the few pieces of lingerie she had. She smiled as she pulled out a pair of black tie lacey underwear followed by a beautiful black lacey bra. She couldn't remember the last time she'd even worn them, or the last time she had someone she really wanted to wear them for. A satisfying grin spread across her face as she held the two garments between her fingers.

Emma quickly disrobed and slipped the lingerie on. She looked at herself in the mirror and hoped Shalimar would like what she saw. She put her clothes back on over the lingerie and grabbed an envelope off her desk and headed out of the room. She rounded up some snacks knowing she didn't have enough time to cook a proper breakfast, and grabbed a bottle of cider from the fridge and some wine glasses. She made her way back to Shalimar's room with the lot.

She slowly entered Shalimar's door as she felt relieved that the feral was still in the shower. She placed the cider and snacks on the desk and began to make the bed. When she was done, she placed them in the center of the bed and put the two glasses onto the nightstand. She quickly cleaned the room so it would look more appealing.

She looked up the bathroom door as she heard Shalimar's shower come to an end. She felt tense and knew if there was ever a time to make her move now would have t be that time. She inspected the room and was content that it was ready for the feral. She walked over to the candles Shalimar kept beside her bed and lit them followed by the ones on her dresser. She turned to lock the door to Shalimar's room and faced the bathroom door in anticipation.

She removed her clothes as to only let the lingerie below be seen and placed them out of sight behind Shalimar's chair in the corner. She heard movements coming from inside the bathroom and knew Shalimar must be getting dressed. She hoped that soon enough she'd see everything she'd missed from being absent in the shower.
