Svenn settled down beside her, his head turned towards his mate. "Well, maybe," he meowed, shifting his eyes. And before Arya had the chance to reply, he teasingly nuzzled her belly, tickling the female Kuhna playfully with much affection.
Hilard nodded, bowing his head to his parents as Ashani did so as well. He stared into the rocks deeply, his eyes almost reluctant to let go of the monuments.
But finally he turned around to face Ashani. His eyes seemed unsure, and it was almost easy to see his limbs shaking lightly from stress or anxiousness. He shook his head, telling himself to stop worrying about this. It was obvious how she felt, wasn't it? The same went for him. So why was he still reluctant? "I wanted to bring you to them, so they could approve my choice..." he blurted out, shifting his eyes from side to side slowly. "It was a custom from my clan, to do that..." he explained, finally locking his gaze with Ashani's.
Hilard crouched down, his rear raised and his head lowered to the ground. His eyes were closed, and his tails formed a heart. "Ashani, daughter of the Ancients' proud bloodline," he started with. "I, son of the Kamo pride, demand your paw for your eternal love and trust, until death comes between us."
Finally, he had said it.
