Aresenn's gaze couldn't help but be drawn to their surroundings as they passed through the heart of Armada's territory. The col had been mercilessly ravaged by the unforgiving flood waters, leaving behind a trail of destruction that was still evident. Yet amidst the remnants of chaos, there were also signs of gradual recovery, a testament to the resilience and determination of Andromeda's family and pack. The air was thick with the scent of wet earth and fresh growth, a reminder that even in the darkest of times, life perseveres. He couldn't help but return to the memories of that day- the chaos, and the moments of desperation and panic- it had been a lifeline exchanged in dire circumstances. Observing the changes, Aresenn's mind wandered briefly, tracing the steps of progress that had transformed this place. He caught the glint in Andy's pale blue eyes, a flicker of thoughts passing between them, unspoken but understood. As they ventured deeper, following Andromeda's assured steps, the surroundings shifted. A structure emerged into view, one that was nothing like he had ever seen. Its dark silhouette loomed over them, casting a shroud against the waning light of eventide. Aresenn felt his instincts heighten, his senses keenly aware of the subtle nuances in the atmosphere. The doorway, a mere patch in the darkness, beckoned to them, guarded by bear hides that swayed gently in the breeze. Though he could feel the hesitance charge the air, as if the mountain side around them were holding its breath. As she looked at him then, he answered her gaze with interest, returning her grin with his own half-smirk as she introduced him to her observatory, enticing him inside. The intricate details and furnishing of the world inside were foreign to him. But with every step, he felt like he was entering a new realm, full of mysteries waiting to be uncovered. The atmosphere was ethereal, almost otherworldly, as if the encasing glass were windows into the universe itself. The only source of light being the soft glow of moon and starlight. Despite the darkness, he could see everything so clearly. As he stood in awe and silence, taking in the breathtaking space around him, he suddenly became aware of her presence. She beckoned him further into the room, her movements graceful and alluring. She led him to a pallet of furs that lay on the ground, inviting him to share the moment with her. As they situate themselves atop the bed, he quickly found himself ensnared in her embrace. As she leaned in, he did the same, seeking the contact that had ended abruptly out in the forest. Though just as he could feel the heat of her breath, he was stopped with her plea. Please never leave me again. It caused his gut to twist. Though, caught up in the heat of the moment, he couldn’t stand for things to stall there. “Oh, Drama.” It was a lustful sigh- one very clearly heavy with wanting. Rather than stealing the kiss she withheld, he leaned in, pressing his lips to her collar bone. He wanted to live in this moment forever. He regretted his refusal, before the words had rolled off his tongue. But he wouldn’t make a false vow to her for his own benefit. "... I can't keep that promise," he finally answered in a husky voice, while trailing his lips along the delicate curvature of the bridge between her neck and shoulder. He desperately wanted to take back his words and give into her pleading gaze, but he knew it wouldn't be right. "Stay with me now... For as long as you can... And come back as soon as you can..." He added, each word punctuated by a gentle kiss as he trailed his way up her neck. “Those are all promises I can keep.” He assured her, but with a heavy heart, no less. It was only then did he pull away, uncertain if his touch would still be welcome. Looking for her impossibly blue gaze, he sought direction. Permission to continue ... or dismissal to leave. |
