Something about the way her dragon held fast to her spoke of restraint; of the overwhelming urge for something he was holding back from. "And he, like any being, would prefer to hear the most beautiful song possible. Even if that means that they must let the bird sing from its branch and watch it from afar."
Fingers tightened on her waist, and she could feel the prickle of claws though the thin fabric that floated around them in the current, and the purr that was rumbling though him shifted into something slightly darker, slightly more dangerous. "I would claim you now to let them all know of who you belonged too, had I the strength left to do so."
She was hazy, staring at him though the steam, and the clawed hand that had strayed down to grasp her bared thigh was infinitely distracting as it played across her skin. Dangerous and distracting and oh so very welcome as claws lightly scratched at her skin in a caress that spoke of violence and passion, adoration and want. But even with it his words registered.
"Had you the strength?"
Kohaku nodded solemnly, eyes closing as he fought to grasp some measure of control. "The curse his waters cured, but the weakness still remains; I'll not recover fully until submerged within my own. I am only half a god for you, Chihiro, until I can win against the Cove for your hand."
Note: This is the last chapter I've got finished for you. There IS more coming -I have it all planned out and ready to be written-, just not yet.
