All Annora did was bit her lip softly as she was glared at, but the words Scarlet said set her more at ease, causing her to smile gently as she thought over her words. As her forehead was kissed, she leaned into it a little and cooed softly, whining softly in approval as she snuggled up closely to the witch. She had not been spoken to or been treated like this for a long time, but there was a time in days past where she had similar experiences in her life, so she had some inkling of how this worked - but Scarlet... the way she treated her was far beyond anything she imagined. While it was hard for her to trust, Scarlet was very good at reassuring her that everything would be fine. She needed that. As Scarlet explained how familiars worked, Annora smiled softly to herself and felt herself getting all blushy again. There was something about it that sounded so wonderful to her and she was glad to know that her new Mistress did like her pets having free will - another thing that made her more relaxed about what was happening. She especially enjoyed the thought of having a collar and briefly imagined herself in one before feeling Scarlet's lips on her again. This time, Annora was quick to react and returned the kiss eagerly before bashfully pulling away with a cute little smile on her face.

[b][color=ff86ee]"I will try.. for you.. it's been a very long time since someone has treated me... like this.. thank you."[/color][/b] She cooed once more and let out a sigh. [b][color=ff86ee]"Maybe.. later.. the familiar thing does sound nice...."[/color][/b] Her voice trailed off as she began to fall asleep, her head laid against Scarlet's shoulder. Annora hadn't realized how tired she was nor how safe she really felt in the witch's arms.
