She has lived so long and seen so much but he doesn't believe that he needs to know every experience she has had over her many millennia to appreciate the woman she is now and what her gentle guidance and wisdom means to him.
She is brilliant, she always is, and pressed against him in the chill of the night she is a welcome warmth. Ethereal in a way someone of her age would always seem to a mere mortal. But not some distant untouchable thing. The most impressive part of who she is is that, compared to himself, she seems so much more approachable, personable in a way that he had never allowed himself to be. Honerva, a woman, deeply insightful and intelligent. Unlike Cor who had spent all his time cultivating The Immortal, cold and untouchable.
But not now, now he is merely a man enthralled, kissing her harder, coaxing her lips to part so he can savor the taste of her. Tongue pressing deeper, a soft rumble of pleasure in his chest, his grip on her unyielding and possessive.]
