"It's a deal, Baby!"

"Dàinn, do you mind going a little slow??" Cassiel whispered softly receiving a soft chuckle from his mate. 

"Yeah... Um slower??" Dàinn questioned back with a smirk.

"Stop it!!!!" Cassiel blushed, realizing he had unintentionally opened the door to playful banter. Dàinn's chuckles echoed in the quiet night as he leaned in, his warm breath tickling Cassiel's ear.

"Alright, alright, I'll slow down," Dàinn teased, his voice dripping with amusement.

Cassiel lightly nudged Dàinn, a mixture of embarrassment and laughter on his face. "You know what I mean!"

Dàinn wrapped an arm around Cassiel's waist, pulling him closer as they continued their leisurely walk by the lake. "I know, I know. I just couldn't resist."

Cassiel shook his head, still chuckling. "You're impossible."

Dàinn's expression turned more serious as he looked into Cassiel's eyes. "But you like me that way, don't you?"
