Thread: Girl in the Fire, Boy in the Storm (Absinth and Enigma)

What did you do to piss the demon off enough to want to kill you for? Kiera couldnt help but allow a slow smirk to rise over her lips. She figured Daniel had just been himself. Shed be surprised if any strong being allowed him to walk around with the kind of mouth he had. Although, it wasnt like she couldnt say the same thing about herself. The woman took in the beautiful and aged dcor, it must have cost a sheer fortune to decorate such a home as they had. As much as it pained her to think in such a way, Kiera was imaging what a pleasure it would be to live in a place that was so spacious. It goes against my code. She confirmed firmly, her gaze resting on his. Kids, they should run from battle. Adults? They need to stand and fight. It is why the remaining packs are still alive, for the most part. She offered a heavy sigh before placing her hands on her hips, not noticing the way the material of the shirt slid up as she crumpled the material under her fingers. Nobody I can think of would follow an Alpha thats a coward. So in a way, youre correct. I have a good deal of disdain for him, just as I do for you. Her gaze didnt move, nor did her expression change. It was somewhat of a concern that they had such similar tastes. Kiera didnt want any similarities with him. She agreed for two reasons, one was to protect her pack and the other was to lure any attack that may have been a claiming mission into a well defended fortress. In a game of war, tactics were almost everything. If you position yourself well then you will reap the benefit. That is exactly what Kiera was setting out to do. When I was ten I slept in a shack. She muttered softly, noticing the way in which Daniel shut the door after himself, he seemed to be keen on locking the pair of them together. His words immediately instilled rage within her. They werent even married yet and he was speaking of her being his ? How dare he. Even if they were to be wed, if her plans failed, then he would only dream of being able to call her his. It was a tactic, nothing else. I thought you didnt want a wife? She challenged briefly as her gaze swept over him. If you even get to speak those vows, and Im not saying you will, then you will learn I am the only one that has power over me. I do not become yours, not now, not tomorrow, not ever. Her gaze was ablaze with fury. She couldnt help but find the ferocity of her emotions slowly burning into something Else. The mere thought of someone so willing to kill and maim any who may even touch her, well, that was flattering. If there was anything Kiera could understand, it was violence. As the male advanced toward her Kiera contemplated going for his groin. A firm hard knee should have put him in his place. Yet she remained still, admiring his gate. A slow, soft snarl rippled from deep within her as she felt the warmth of his skin on hers. The way his hues smouldered was reflected in her own no doubt theyd kill each other before the night was through. How do you know I wont lure a stronger man than you into my bed? Her purr was purely to taunt him. The way her gaze caught his. The way her body began to simmer with heat. It was all because of him . If she could end him, she would have. Kiera watched as he backed off, making his way toward the door. As if Im going to go snooping around here. I have to plan for a very powerful lover, Her lips curved up in a grin as he left. His comment about finding Danielle for help with gathering some clothes was beyond her. The woman despised the she wolf, it seemed. The auburn haired woman doubted shed get much help from her. Kiera had considered why she should put clothes on at all, she was content being naked. Well, maybe the thought of Daniel gazing over her every now and then was unsettling it wasnt enough to make her uncomfortable with her own state. After an hour of snooping and sniffing around the she wolf eventually made her way out of the room, on the trail for the female twin. Danielle? She called out, pausing as she walked past one of the guest rooms. It smelt of wolf. How odd. The female ventured inside, inhaling the air deeply. Again, a slight musky smell but nothing else. Kiera assumed the packs were the only wolves theyd had here, unless someone was keeping one as a guard dog which she doubted. It could be that one came up here but the smell had a certain lingered scent to it. The scent was stronger, muskier than usual hinting that it had been at least a couple of hours. Nevertheless, she continued on her journey through the lavish home to find the woman shed rather not spend any more time with than she had to. Eventually, she found Danielle. Apparently Im in need of clothing. She cast her gaze to meet the young womans. Look, I get it. Im not wife material. I dont wish to be either. Personally, I think your brother is a bit of sadist. That or he wants to piss us both off. She gave a slight shrug. As soon as this is resolved you wont see me again. Then you can get on with finding a suitable partner for your brother.
