Thread: The Hunted.. { YHM  x  Elvenoff }

Kain looked about the area once the SUV stopped to ensure that there were no surprises waiting for him to get out. However, his attention swayed back to Skylar when she remained seated while her men exited the vehicle. She sounded tired not in the sense of not sleeping but tired with the way things have been, the way the races have been living. He tried to understand this but for the past five years, she has been his life, his drive to see the next night to come about. He did not understand if she was this tired of the way things are why fight as hard as she has, then it dawned upon him again that she seemed different and this is why. Something was heavily wrong with her now and he found himself wanting to know more of what caused the change in her. When she informed him of the betrayal things began to fit together. There was more to this betrayal than them trying to kill her for he has been doing that for years and not once did she show the signs that she is showing now. There was definitely more to the story. He wanted to know what it was but than again, he found himself not wanting to press any issues with her. He took a deep breath trying to find that coldness of his soul for he could kill her now but he could not find the desire to do so. Confusion set in about himself but he put that off to the side for he wanted to know more of what happened to her. Getting out he listened to her instructions that she gave to her henchmen and nodded to the fact that she could fight if she had too, this he didnt question but it still seemed that the fight was out of her. He watched her head toward the forest path and he double-checked the henchmen before following her. He might have fallen into her woes, which again concerned him, but he did not feel the desire of killing her as he did have. Has she learned a new submission ability that she has managed to get over on him? He shrugged this feeling off and caught up with her. His brow arched when the scars of her wounds were revealed to his sight, he listened to her words with new interest and nearly stopped walking when she told him that she did have a son. No, I didnt know you had any family left after our third meeting. He remembered killing her aunt and two uncles that night. He fell silent when she continued to explain what happened to her. Now he was beginning to understand what was going on with her. She was tired of fighting and losing all that she has and now it seems as if she has adopted a whole city of humans to protect. He fully understood now why she came to him this time around. In addition, why she wanted this time to see that she has changed, she did not want the rise of the Lycan Empire she just wanted to keep her city safe and to be left alone by all. He was taken back from her surroundings and the way he sees her now. She was almost just like them, Humans. He passed up the offering of a meal with a wave of his hand. He moved about the room looking at the pictures, he remembered seeing her mate the past few times they battled but did not know he was her half. A bit of regret hit, him looking at her son, so young to have been killed before his time, but being in a position of leadership brings danger to all around. He did take up her offer of the Cognac with a slight clink to her glass he took a sip and was impressed with the quality of the drink. My condolences upon your loss. He tried to be sympathetic but he himself never loss anything so important so he could not relate to the pain that she had gone through. Yes, he has lost friends and comrades to the war but no mate nor child. I do see the change in you from the last time we met but I have to tell you that I dont think its me that you have to worry about now. The hunter that is after you is their best he goes by the name of Orin and well he has yet to feel the sting of defeat as I have with you. He took another sip. If I may ask what is your plans now that the Kindred has sent another hunter after you? He looked away from her to the floor realizing that he was still being that hunter and probing her for information. Im sorry its a habit of mine. He moved away to the window and began to gaze about the area
