[IC] A Whole New World

[Soul Hunter]

"It's only int he last few generations they've become like that" she sighed and looked to him happily. "And loo it'll all be fine Zack" she said smiling "I can go over a few things with you so that you'll feel more confident if you want" she said to him and then made him sit down to eat his breakfast. "But you do need to relax as well"

[KatherinWinter]

"I would feel better if we went over things I need to know." Zack reluctantly returned to the table. He started eating again. He knew he would need the energy that the food would give him. He needed to finish the sculpture of wisps. He knew he could do it. He just wasn't sure that he could complete the sculpture, but he wasn't sure that he could complete it the way he wanted to do in the time he had left.

[Soul Hunter]

"You don't need to complete that sculpture you know we can show them the other two as well" she said knowing exactly what he was thinking and leaned over kissing his lips gently. "I'll sort some stuff out and then go over the stuff with you before we go to see Wisp ok?" she said softly.

(heading to bed now so goodnight)

[KatherinWinter]

Zack smiled as she read his mind. He wasn't convinced that he didn't need to complete the statue of Wisp. How would he could he explain having just a couple completed pieces? Surely the expected to see dozens of completed works. He would work on the sculpture as much as he could today.

[Soul Hunter]

"They know statues take a long time to complete so won't mind if something is complete or not as long as you have one or two completed statues it should be fine" she said softly "I've told them you've just moved to this town and that you are looking for a job as a sculpture but also that you're a new one so they don't expect to see dozens of pieces of work like you might expect"

[KatherinWinter]

"Alright. We will show them what I have completed. But I want it to be clear that the statues I gave you are not for sell." Zack told her. He was still uncertain about showing these strangers his work but he trusted her.

[Soul Hunter]

"Obviously, I'm not going to let them have those ones, they are ones you made for me so they're like treasures to me, they can ask for the same animal to be done for them since the one you have done of Calcifer is a popular model for statues" she said to him "But they are not allowed them in particular like I said they're too precious to me" she said honestly. "Don't worry it'll be fine, I can help you out in the interview anyway I asked them that as well and told them you were a bit shy around strangers sometimes."

[KatherinWinter]

"You truly are my mate," Zack beamed when she told him who much his small gifts meant to her. He went to her and wrapped his arms around her. This time he didn't just brush his lips against hers. This time he kissed her passionately. He cupped her face tenderly as his other hand caressed her back. He had never felt this way about anyone. He hoped she knew how much she was coming to mean to him.

[Soul Hunter]

Smiling surprised at his passionate kiss she slowly began to kiss him back and when they pulled away she smiled at him and kissed him softly afterwards. "and your truly my mate" she said softly and hugged him as well happily. "I love you Zack, more than you know" she said and rested her head against him contently.

[KatherinWinter]

"Did you say..." Zack couldn't believe that he was hearing the words he had been longing for. "Say it again. I don't think I heard you right. You couldn't have said what I thought you said." He begged her.

[Soul Hunter]

Blushing she looked to him and repeated what she'd said to him "umm, your truly my mate" she said rather embarrassed now that she thought about it and looked to him waiting for his reaction "and you don't need to beg either" she said to him and kissed him softly.

[KatherinWinter]

"You have no idea how happy those words make me." Zack kissed her again. This time he held her against him and deepened the kiss. He slipped his tongue into her mouth and got the first taste of her. He groaned as the taste of her rushed through his body.

[Soul Hunter]

Kissing him back she hadn't expected him to slip his tongue into her mouth catching her off guard but still kissed him back and played with his tongue a little as well blushing more hearing his groan. She knew exactly how much it meant to him especially after such a passionate loving kiss.

[KatherinWinter]

Zack stepped back. He knew if he didn't he would push her to let him take her. But he also knew she wasn't ready. Breathing heavy he moved away from her. His body was on fire. It was demanding that he claim is mate.

[Soul Hunter]

Keita panted a little catching her breath from the kiss still as well as feeling her own heart racing like mad in her chest. "You ok?" she asked him softly "anyway shall we work a little on what will happen in the interview or rather meeting tomorrow"

[KatherinWinter]

"Give me a minute." His expression was filled with pain. He had to fight not to claim her right here and now. He paced the room for several minutes until his body was once again calm. Then he sat as far from her as he could. "Alright I think I can focus now."

[Soul Hunter]

Keita watched him a moment thinking before he came over and spoke up when he'd calmed down "Are you ok?" she asked him "You looked like you were in pain before" she said to him noticing he was also sitting far away from her as he could. She shook her head and moved so she was sitting opposite him and turned the laptop she had on now to show him a few things that would help him out and also what's happen in the meeting too so he didn't get too lost at least.

[Soul Hunter]

(no idea what happened ...)

[KatherinWinter]

"Im alright. I shouldn't have kissed you like that. I will have to be careful how I touch you. My body is demanding that I claim you and I know your not ready." Zack explained. "Id heard how painful the urge to mark one's mate could be but I never realized exactly hard it would be to fight the urge."

[Soul Hunter]

Keita listened to him carefully " You did tell me a bit about that a bit before and you're right I'm not ready yet but I really wish I could help you since I don't like seeing you in pain" she said to him trying to think of some way to help him, an alternative.
