"Wait here for me. I know he won't hurt me." Lily needed to go in by herself, knowing how he could react. Dran nodded, watching her turn to go inside the cave. He wasn't worried about what she would do, it was more what Dimitri would do in the wrong mood or temperament.
Lily went deeper into the cave seeing Dimitri towards the back still curled up. "Hey its me." He didn't move at first when she walked up next to him running her hands over his scales. "I know this isn't what we wanted or what we planned, but that doesn't mean its all bad either."
He began to move, uncurling to look her in the eyes at her level. *It may seem easy for you to come to terms with this, but I still need time. Besides it doesn't look like you need me anymore.* He was looking at the left side of her neck, Dran's mating mark on display. "Did you think I was going to say no? Why? My mother told me that it was possible for gods to have more then one mate. Surely your mother said something to you?"
