Soon, she was carefully scrubbing the brightly striped dragon down, and Ahigath was sprawled out in a near-euphoric stupor. It felt so good to have those itchy places finally reached! She crooned and warbled, rubbing her cheek against Haseya in an almost foolish display of utter affection. Ahigath didn't mind, though. It was worth it just to feel her bonded's love and disbelief grow all the more.
The older woman could only laugh softly to herself, pausing to kiss the little dragonet on the snout. Though Ahigath could never replace her loss, she had made Haseya whole.
