Zeke's lips twitched. "So? And?"
"So I want you to do something that'll make me happy, too."
Her eyes sparkled as she looked at him. "I want you to confess to me in public right at the Tribal Square and shout 'I love Luna most!'—how about it?"
Zeke's mouth twitched hard a few more times, the tips of his ears flushing a fiery red. "...In your dreams."
How was he supposed to say something like that, let alone shout it in front of everyone?
"Not gonna shout?"
Luna huffed, her soft, snow-white foot suddenly stepping onto Zeke's knee, as he knelt there wiping her feet. Her damp toes curled under his chin, lifting it. "Fine, I'll go ask Jago to take me to The Salt Lake to see Corbin…"
Zeke caught her ankle in one swift move, his emerald eyes turning dark. "You dare!"
"Try me and see!"
She suddenly pointed at her own slightly reddened lips. "Once I get to The Salt Lake, I'll say... you bit me and made me bleed..."
She didn't even know if it was actually bleeding.
