Emrys made a soft noise of agreement when she moved his hands to her hips, while he continued kissing her neck. It was a pleasurable activity, of course, but it was also a good distraction while she spoke — it meant he had enough time to process her words and consider his own without having to look her directly in the face while he did. Obedience was a strange choice of words — he had never asked for her obedience, at least not in as many words, and did she seem the type of woman who would be eager to give it in most matters. And her conclusion — that she was worried about him. It was touching, he supposed, but what to make of that? How to respond?
"You could never cause me to be uneasy," he responded easily. He was still keeping his tone flirtatious, hoping that between that and the way he was touching and kissing her this conversation might fall by the wayside before he had to find any real answers to her questions. He slid one hand from her hip to her backside, pulling her closer to him. He kissed the edge of her mouth, smiling against her skin. "And I think you give yourself too little credit. You are an excellent comfort to me."
