"Good."

He tastes very good. Nadine would be hard pressed to put the taste into words. Some blend of familiar flavors, but somehow combined in a way that defies comparison. Sweet, and somehow hotly bitter, but pleasantly so. There's notes of honey, of wine, of sweat... but that's not exactly right either.

And at the moment, she's not very inclined to dwell on sifting through adjectives anyway. Her senses are filled with Jaskier in a way they never have before. To say that she hungers for him wouldn't be a metaphor right now.

Thankfully he's quick to agree that it's time to go. She doesn't even care where at this point, it doesn't matter. And the cozy bedroom in Jaskier's tree is perfectly suitable. More importantly, it's private. Now that they're truly away from others, Nadine is able to shake off the rest of her inhibitions. This isn't a night to get caught up in her own mind, or for overthinking. Tonight is a night to tap into that darker part of her. That part that craves power and control.

Tonight she's a vampire queen, and Jaskier her willing 'victim'. The magic of the Horizon, her current outfit, the blend of herb and spirits in her system all help her embody the role.
