Neveah heard Aerendyl speak, though his words barely made sense as he pulled her chin up to kiss her. She wanted to fight against him but something in her complied instead. Her lips met his and she kissed him back deep and passionately. Anyone who was watching would think it was just some random couple. This wasn't some ordinary couple though. These two were technically sworn enemies as far as the dawn of time. Neveah was just good at keeping an open mind.

Her lips curved to his and she eventually pulled away, reluctant. She shook her head, taking a step back. She was shocked, unsure what had come over her.

"This isn't right Aerendyl... We aren't supposed to want eachother. Our kinds differ so much..." she said, sounding unconvincing.

Aerendyl continued to walk as if he was leaving for Ravenshire. I know.. That's why I'm leaving. You don't need your reputation tarnished by me. I'm just a mut. We aren't supposed to be together. He stopped for a minute to look at the flowers again, seeing as this was probably the last time that he'd ever see them. Aerendyl felt like a part of him was getting ripped to shreds, but he didn't want anything to happen to Neveah. She was a queen and he was a fallen king and werewolf. Nothing about this relationship would be natural or normal.

"You don't need to leave. I've made a place for you to stay. You can stay. I'd feel much better if you stayed," she said gently, stepping after him as he walked. She reached out and grabbed his wrist, trying to turn him around to face her so she could talk to him without him leaving.

"People will think and say whatever they feel like. They're free to do that. It doesn't matter how good I am at being the Queen. There will always be someone who has something to say... like my brother."

Aerendyl stopped and faced Neveah. Neveah, I'm never going to stop loving you. I will literally love you until the day I die. There is no one else for me in this world. You don't need that on your plate. Your brother already wants me dead for reasons I don't understand, and you said it yourself that you are not into the relationship. I don't know if this affects you like it does me. I don't want to go. I want to stay by your side and never leave, but if that isn't what you want or need then I will do what is best for you.

Aerendyl moved his wrist so that the two of them were holding hands. She felt soft and smooth to the touch. I will stay if that's what you want. There's nothing I would love more, but you have to know that I'm going to want you. I'll leave you alone ad I wont contact you if that's what you want and when everything is okay, I will leave and you'll never have to deal with me again. He smiled down at her though it wasn't a happy smile. There was some sadness behind his eyes, knowing that he would have to leave her one day. There was no telling what she felt or if she even was affected by the imprinting. Aerendyl Just wanted to kiss her again and try to forget what happened. He wanted to be with her not just physically, but emotionally too. It was up to Neveah though what was about to happen.

Neveah listened to Aerendyl confess his emotions to her. His love for her and that he would do anything for and with her. It made what little blood she had in her body rush to her cheeks into a blush. She looked at her hand, which Aerendyl was holding. A soft smile crept along her lips. She looked up at him gently.

"You don't have to leave. I'd like it if you stayed here. That's what I want," she said, her voice firm, her decision made.

With that, Neveah leaned up again and kissed Aerendyl. She realized she had to tone herself down a bit, noticing she was putting a lot of emotion into the kiss.

"Just, don't expect anything to come of this... I'm sorry. I just... I can't do the relationship thing. If you want anything else though, I can handle that..."

After Neveah had kissed him, Aerendyl felt a warm sensation run through him. He could feel the passion in her kiss which she must have enjoyed. She told him not to go and that she wanted him to stay. This had made Aerendyl smile a bit. He wanted to stay and be close.I'll stay as long as you want me to. He said softly, still not letting go of her hand.

She started to tell him about how she wasn't able to do a relationship but if he wanted other things, which he assumed was physical contact, then she could do that. This bothered Aerendyl a bit. He did't want just the physical aspect he also wanted her to be just his. It hurt to think of her being with anyone else physically and for no reason at all, he started to feela little jealous though he didn't show it. Aerendyl just nodded at her comment and kissed her again. This time not as long though. Just a short kiss.

As he kissed her though, he could feel his stomach tighten up a bit. Hunger had started to roll in and the last thing he had to eat was the moose from the night before. Aerendyl looked down at Neveah who was still close to him, slightly in his arms. Are you hungry? Would you like to hunt with me tonight? Or do you already have plans. He smiled down at her waiting for a response.

Are you hungry? Would you like to hunt with me tonight? Or do you already have plans. Aerendyl said.

Neveah looked at him quietly for a moment. She was getting thirsty, but she hesitated before answering. She wasn't sure how safe hunting together would be. She didn't want her ignorance to his kind to get in the way of her being his friend though, so she nodded.

"Sure, I could feed. Where would you like to go?" she agreed. There were tons of places they could hunt. Usually she just hunted in the back acres of her quarters, but if he somehow knew of a better place, she'd consider going there. At this point the sun had dipped fully below the horizon and it was dark, the lamps casting shadows of teh plants about the grounds.

Aerendyl nodded in delight. I know a good place. Should have something good out there. As he said that, a slight breeze rolled in with an odd smell. Smells like we're going to have a nasty storm roll through. If we leave now then we should be able to get there in time, but if not then you can just feed off me. I got plenty of blood to spare. He smiled not really thinking much about what he just offered. He didn't want the trip to be a complete waist of her time.

The two of them started to run through the woods. Aerendyl turned into a wolf pretty quickly into the run so he could keep up with Neveah. it only took about a good 20 minutes to make it to this small clearing of flowers. As much as it was slightly romantic, this was a good place to hunt normally. Aerendyl walked around the clearing sniffing around. Not much was popping up for the exception of some rabbits and a fox. I swear I didn't just bring you here to look at the flowers. The storm must have forced the other animals into hiding. All I can smell is small things that wouldn't even quench our hunger. He spoke to her still a wolf. This feeling was still odd this him. The two of them could communicate without having to speak, which was good for him since he couldn't talk out loud as a wolf.

With this though, Aerendyl turned back into an elf and started to make his way over to Neveah. Sorry for waisting your time. I used to hunt here all the time so I figured there would be some good game. I'm sure there would have been something better back at the capital. Once he reached Neveah, A very loud clap of thunder rang through the sky. Aerendyl looked around quckly as it surprised him. Rain started to cut though to the ground as the thunder spoke loudly. I'm going to take a wild stab and say that there's not much out and about right now. Well if you want you can just feed off me. I'll just eat some of that meat you gave me back at the house. He was shirtless alrady so if Neveah did end up taking him up on his offer then she wouldn't have a hard time getting at his skin.

Aerendyl suggested a good place he knew about, but also mentioned there was a storm rolling in. Neveah was fond of storms and her face broke out into a grin.

"I'm fine with a little noise and some rain. It's refreshing," she said, her eyes bright. She ignored his comment about letting her feed from him though. Besides, she was unsure how his blood would react in her system. When they arrived at the area, it was a clearing with lots of different flowers and plants. She could smell the fox clear as day, but nothing else was around really. She breathed out a gentle sigh.

Aerendyl had shifted back into his elf form and spoke to her again properly, "I'm going to take a wild stab and say that there's not much out and about right now. Well if you want you can just feed off me. I'll just eat some of that meat you gave me back at the house."

"I don't know if feeding from you is a good idea. I'm unsure how your blood would react with my body. Humans and animals are predictable. But a wolf, I'm not so sure. Plus, if you're hungry we should probably head back anyway?"

By this point the rain was pouring down onto them, and Neveah's hair was soaked to her back and shoulders. The hunting clothes she had put on were also dripping and sticking to her naturally cold skin, outlining her figure well.

Aerendyl shrugged at Neveah's comment. He could understand why she wouldn't want to feed off him, he was just being nice. I understand. I just figured you would hungry. He smiled then brushed his hand past hers as he walked passed her. He started to sniff around again, but this time nothing was popping up. The storm really did scare everything off. The rain made his hair look long and wavy. The water dripped down his chest making it glisten a little. Aerendyl turned around to look at Neveah and saw her clothes stick to her figure perfectly. He wanted to look more at her and touch her, but he knew he couldn't. Please feed on me. He let slip out quietly. Hopefully the rain was loud enough for her not to hear him.

"I'm not sure thirst works the same way your hunger does. I can control it for fairly long periods of time if I need or wanted to." Neveah spoke gently, her voice easy to hear despite the rain and thunder. She watched as Aerendyl sniffed around one more time before stopping. They were both silent for a few moments before either of them spoke again.

"Please feed on me," left Aerendyl's lips, and Neveah heard it clear as day. Her brow furrowed. She had never once, even in the middle of sex, been invited by someone to feed from them. Usually she coerced them or asked.

"Why? Why do you want me to feed on you so badly? Is it your genuine concern, or the imprint talking?"

Aerendyl didn't know how to respond to this. Never had he once wanted or even thought about someone feeding off of him. Maybe it was the imprinting thing, but if it was then he needed to get himself under control. The wind from the storm started to pick up a bit more. Anymore of this and it would start to become dangerous for the two of them to be out.

I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me there... The storm is getting worse though, we should get out of here before be can't. Aerendyl didn't want to look at Neveah due to embarrassment. He turned away and started to walk towards the city. It had only been a month since he imprinted on Neveah, but it felt like his feelings were getting stronger and stronger by the day. He wanted her to feel it too, but wasn't going to force her into anything. he knew she wasn't the relationship kind of person and the face of the matter was that she was a Vampire and he was a Werewolf. Not only that, there was the small thing of Aerendyl being a fallen king. That would tarnish anyone's reputation. Aerendyl just sighed as he walked along. Who knew life would get this complicated.

Neveah pushed some of her wet hair from her face and nodded gently.

"Yeah, we should get going. It's getting late anyhow. The sun will be up in a few hours I suspect, though probably not too brightly if this storm doesn't pass." she spoke gently, though seconds after she finished her last words, lightening struck the earth just feet from them. Neveah leapt back away from it and gasped loudly. She was crouching, an instinctive stance for when danger was about. Thunder cracked seconds after, and Neveah tried blinking to eliminate the brightness from her eyes.

"Are you okay? Let's go. Your house is closest to here," she said, not waiting for a response once she checked he was okay, and darted off in the direction of his new house.

I'm fine let's just go! Aerendyl started to run after Neaveh. They weaved between the trees dodging the fallen branches the storm had caused. She was much faster then he was in this form. Aerendyl decided to turn into a wolf again to catch up. I knew Vampires were fast but I wasn't expecting you to be this fast. Aerendyl laughed in his head. It was kinda cool that he could talk to Neveah through thought when he was a wolf.

It only took a few minutes for the two of them to run back to his place. The rain had washed off the mess he made on the side. By this point too, Aerendyl's stomach was starting to rumble again. Neveah stood under the cover by the front door as Aerendyl started to change from again. He shook off as much water as he could then changed and ran over to Neveah. He smiled at her then opened the door. They both walked in and a burst of cold air blew into Aerendyl. He started to shiver a bit and started to breath deeply while trying to stop. He turned to Neveah then smiled gently. I need to take a shower before I freeze to death. I'll be right back. Make yourself at home.

Aerendyl strolled over to the bathroom and took off his shopping wet clothes before closing the door. He then turned on the shower super hot and waited for the steam to fill up the room before hoping in.

As the two of them ran next to each other toward Aerendyl's house, he spoke inwardly to her. "I knew Vampires were fast but I wasn't expecting you to be this fast."

Neveah smiled softly, her hair long and wet behind her, whipping around in the wind. "A vampires abilities are only limited by the creature themselves." Her voice sounded playful but true. Moments later they arrived outside his new home and he opened up the front door, allowing a cold gust of air into the entryway, causing Aerendyl to shiver. Neveah smirked slightly, since the cold didn't really bother her all to much, besides being soaking wet. She watched as Arendyl went toward the bathroom, and began undressing even before closing the door. Her eyes lingered on the knob for a moment before she turned away and entered the living room. She lit the fireplace and watched it roar to life, giving the room a heavy warmth.

Despite the heat, Neveah's hair was dripping onto the floor. She frowned and chewed her lip slightly. She moved the short distance from the living room to the hall outside the bathroom and knocked on the door quietly. She was in search of a towel and usually she would know where it was, but someone else had set up the house this time. Plus she wasn't occupying the space currently, so it would be rude to just snoop around. She waited, listening for an answer after the knock.

Aerendyl set aside a towel for himself once he was done cleaning up. The bathroom was just how he liked it now, warm and steamy. Since there was no blood on him, this showed would only take a minute. Just to clean off anything else and warm up. Once in, he heard a small knock on the door. He guessed it was Neveah looking for a towel. He should have offered her one before taking off. Aerendyl turned the shower off and quickly hopped out, wrapping his towel around himself. The scars on his chest were very prominent since the room was all steamy. They seemed to pop out when it gets hot.

Aerendyl quickly grabbed a towel for Neveah then walked to the door. Opening it slowly, he saw Neveah standing patiently for him. I assumed you wanted this. He handed her the towel before walking out of the bathroom. The steam rolling out quickly, slightly filling up the room. I should have offered you one before I left. I'm sorry. He smiled gently then turned to go to the bedroom. He pulled out a shirt and shorts so to not make Neveah uncomfortable. Normally he would just walk around shirtless, but he figured she didn't want to see that right now.

After he got all dressed, Aerendyl walked back out into the kitchen and opened up the fridge. Can I offer you anything to eat or are you wanting to wait until you go home? He spoke gently but a little impatient. He was starting to get hungry himself.
