Poe
I'm a lady Poe.
Rita couldn’t help but smile as his hands slipped down her sides and thumbs outlined the lines of her abdomen. It always amazed her how soft his touch could be, because aside from his warm brown eyes and curly hair, Leon was a powerful man. She had never known him without the curse, but being a werewolf kept him in unbelievable shape and ever since they met he could easily toss her over his shoulder or carry her up the stairs. It was as though it took very little effort, if any, and to see him admiring her hardwood and strength made her feel equal. She was not a hindrance anymore. Instead, she was just as strong and could carry herself alongside all of them. There was no need for Orvar’s doubt or questioning as to why she was involved.
And when his lips crashed against hers, deep and needing, she wrapped her arms around his neck and followed his lead. It was a powerful kiss, so much so that Rita felt her body instinctually melt into his and the breath being pulled from her lungs. All she wanted to do was take him home and---
“Fuck, really?” Jason called out as the door to the basement opened and he descended the stairs with some ice packs, “Get a fucking room before it starts smelling like wet dog down here.”
Surprised by his entrance, Rita pulled back her lips from Leon and turned just enough to shoot Jason a glare as he approached them with little care as to what he was interrupting. At his snide comment, she rolled her eyes and slipped from Leon’s hold to take the ice pack from Jason. “Shut up, Jason,” she scoffed as she took the ice pack and pressed it to her shoulder. Immediately, she winced but let out a deep, relieved sigh as the burning dulled under the cold compress. “Are we done here?” she asked.
“Yeah, I guess tasing you twice is going to have to be enough for today,” he replied, pushing it ever so slightly with his peripheral on Leon. It was like a battle of testosterone, but Rita knew that between the two – Leon would win, any day. “Next time we can work on more situational awareness. You know, throw you in hell and watch you work your way out of it. Heard you’re pretty good at working your way out of handcuffs, maybe we’ll have to test that theory. Who knows, I’ll figure something out.”
Rita nodded and turned back to Leon. She took his hand with her free one and flashed him a knowing smirk, flirtation clear in her eyes. “You wanna head out then? I can think of a few things we need to get done at home.”
