Her name rolled around on his tongue as if it were a piece of hard candy. Furred ears twitched when he called her lovely, but her face was an expressionless mask. Suddenly, she didn’t care that he had also called her kitten again. Her tail uncurled and dropped towards the floor, a slight lift to the tufted end kept it from dragging on the paneled flooring. Julianna observed Eoin where he stood across the room from her. Her gaze leveled on his as she opened her bag and pushed her whip inside it.
He was toying with her. Julianna forcefully reminded herself that he was a whore and it was his job to charm people. He’d just ask quickly do the same to an intruder if it meant getting what he wanted from her. She didn’t know what he wanted, but it had to be something since he’d neither handed her off to the madam of the brothel or asked her to leave.
Julianna’s tail bristled as he sauntered towards her, but she didn’t move. Obviously, he intimidated her, but he didn’t need to know that. She stood her ground and lifted her chin defiantly. The amulet was out of her reach, for now, possibly, for good. If she was lucky, she’d just have to make it through this encounter and she could be on her way.
He wasn’t looking at her. What was he looking at? Something slightly above her. A kittenish noise of protest sounded in her throat as he handled the sensitive ear. The shrill chirrup was to mask the involuntary purr that started. “Yes, I can control them.” She could not, however, control the vibrations that wavered her tone. “And my tail too,” she added, before he felt the need to grab it as well. She would have touched his feathers if she could reach them, just to prove a point.
“Is there something that you want?” She pulled her ear from between his fingers by forcing them to fall against her hair.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
