What A Nuisance

Shadow had not kept his gaze off the golden woman's form. For some reason, he felt his heart beat even faster than normal whenever he looked at her, even when she offered him a gentle smile. What was this damn feeling, he was thinking as a small sigh escaped him. Feeling her tongue run smoothly against his cuts, caused him to give a small wince, but he was used to the pain by now. He would turn his cranium away from her and place his head upon the ground, watching the crows as they battled each other for the scraps that were left on the bones. It was rather amusing to say the least.

Perhaps since this female had told him her name, it would probably be the one good thing he would offer for the dame even though he hated showing kindness to those he had only met just for one day. "My name is Shadow..." he spoke quietly, but loud enough for Maria to hear. He would close his eyes, not really wanting to pay attention to the dame anymore since he was obviously bored and only focusing on darkness that surrounded his eyes would be even more entertaining.
