Gifts are tricky things

Bedrest had been her prescription from Mojito so Aslatiel had been doing her best to stay still. Or at least not running around like she usually did. That was fine. She wanted her knee to heal so that she could get back to doing what needed to be done without worrying that she'd tweak her injury. If there was some Reaperly duty, she would forget the pain and rise to the occasion. Since there wasn't, she was sticking close to home and resting as much as she could force herself to rest. When Ashur informed her that she needed to meet Naiche somewhere, the young woman arched a brow. Rising to her paws, she moved towards the doorway and began the trek to the Soulless Forest. Why would he want to meet at her tree? It was an odd request, but it would get her out of the den for a while. She would be sure to take it slow and if her knee started to hurt, she would rest. Mo couldn't be upset by that, right? Asla was still confused about her relationship with Naiche. He would never hold a candle to Indigo, but if the golden man wanted to be in her life and he could accept that he would never hold that top spot, then... could she allow him to do so? They were doing a fine job of it so far. He'd told her that he loved her though and it had thrown a weird wrench in things. She was trying to either ignore it or process it but it was difficult. Once she was close to the area where the tree rested, she slowed somewhat. Asla hadn't been here in quite some time. She didn't have the free time anymore. It was all work. Why did he want to meet her here, of all places? It was so far from the Armada. Couldn't he have told her at home? Inwardly, Asla gasped. Was he leading her out here in the middle of nowhere to sleep with her? That was the only logical explanation for such privacy, right? Bloody hell... Eyes wider now, Asla made her way towards the tree. "Speech" |
