The bigger they were, the harder they fell for her.
Peony lifted her chin with the touch, all the better to display her pretty face in the light, eyes fixed on Ianthe's lips and lashes lowered. A very deliberate action on her part. If there was one thing that Peony had learned from many years of dealing with influential people it was that they were always willing to believe they were an object of want.
That the Deathwarden was kind on the eyes didn't hurt her cause either. Disappointing that she let go so quickly.
"You might wish to bring a notetaker when we meet again. My skills, talents and magic are innumerable and it would be a waste for you to tire needlessly." Being in the pocket of a woman in power might suit her well. "Consider me at your service once your duty recommences, my Lady." And she delivered a sweeping curtsey, graceful as if she were wearing the finest silks rather than a borrowed cotton dress.
As for sating her zadza - that might prove more challenging.
