Oh he heard it, had the Master been a weaker telepath, he might have thought it was just him thinking it, but he was not.
So as he kissed her back, just as passionately, he proceeded to send her the same message back, stroking – caressing her mind with his.
“Love you as well Love.” he repeated out loud, pressing his forehead against hers.
Feeling his presence in her mind confirmed that he had heard her. Not only had he heard her, but returned the sentiment. That thought made her want to smile.
It was hard to part lips, she didn’t want to stop. However, she did stop, if only make contact as she relaxed against him. “I have and always will you love, my Master.” There was a hint of possessiveness in the way she spoke. Because he was her Koschei.
He felt himself almost melt from the confession and he smiled, wrapping his arms around her. He ran his fingers through her hair and nuzzled the crown of her head.
“So… i was thinking… that pact that we made when we were kids… what do you think… should we finally get around to it?”
