Let's be honest. This probably isn't something that should surprise him? It really probably shouldn't.
And to be honest it doesn't. It doesn't so much surprise him—more that it rather floors him. A kiss...
...and yet not quite a kiss at the same time. A touch of lips to lips in something gentle and commanding. Loving and rebuking both. Brief. Like it's a simple touch to get one's attention and yet not simple at all. This is important.
So much so that, in drawing a quick breath as she begins to pull back, he's almost convinced he imagined it, were it not for the tingle of her mana still there and he will only just barely force himself not to bite his lip a little for it. But honestly—
Honestly she didn't even need to do that to stop him cold, eyes snapping to her fully startled by just being called out that bluntly.
Or that perhaps she felt that strongly about it. ]
