The crackling blue flames lingered around the lake, creating a warm, comfortable atmosphere as the pair lay atop each other, gazing into each other's eyes.
"It might just be the heat of the moment, but… these growing feelings inside me," Asuka confessed, her hands brushed Leon's cheeks, as she knew he held someone else in his heart, and that he might never become hers alone. "I cannot stop them."
Leonhardt's eyes narrowed, though he couldn't quite understand the human concept of love.
Monsters had their concept of affection and love.
Some races treated it lightly, and others, especially those with high intelligence and sentience, treated it even more sacred than humans.
"Please… calm the fire that burns in my body."
Asuka grasped Leon's hand and placed it on her muscular stomach. Her smooth caramel skin shimmering in the flames as she tensed the moment his palm pressed against her.
His eyes shone with a deep red glow.
