He gave her the rank of Hunter. She mulled over the title in her head, trying it out in her mental voice. Hunter...Hunter.. Maija figured that it would suffice for the time being. The golden-furred female knew that she would excel in her rank, especially since she was the one that chased down the food for her and Dragomir since they came together. Such thoughts had found their way through her temporary mental bliss, and she pushed them out again.
She still had plenty of issues to deal with, mainly wrapped around the fact that she was still attached to the image of her husband. His disappearance had affected her in the worst way, but so far, she had kept up an appearance of not being bothered by it. Then, there was Aoi...he had been the only one to see how it could make her physically sick. Maija had considered him an ally after that night, even though she wasn't too keen on the idea at first. Her thoughts made their way back to the situation at hand. Everything would be sorted out in good time.
Maija's leaf green gaze remained steady with Taurig's as he then asked for her name. Her personal information was something she didn't like to give out freely. She had an internal struggle as she considered giving him the answer that he sought. Before she revealed her identity, Maija decided that since he had been so open with his intentions upon meeting her and hadn't posed a threat to her or her dinner, he deserved to know. Blinking slowly, she stood to her fullest height and said, "Maija. Maija Artenie-Miklos."
Her married name began to feel like a ball-and-chain to her personal identity, something she never thought would happen. A hint of dislike wrapped itself around her husband's last name, but if Taurig could tell or not, she didn't know. At the moment, she didn't care if he did notice. If he had, it would be the beginning to a slow unraveling for the golden-furred temptress. Maybe it was what she needed to move on, but she didn't think of it.
For the umpteenth time, Maija tried to push through the images of her two-faced husband. She was mentally being tormented by those thoughts and as she fought with them, it made it seem like she was physically feeling stomach pains. A look of discomfort flickered across her face and tried to hide it as quickly as it appeared. She hoped that Taurig hadn't seen it, the weakness that broke through the strong fa?ade she had been carrying since the thoughts began to appear. To make sure he didn't question her, Maija lightly kicked the dead meat below her with a hind paw and murmured, "Indigestion." It was somewhat true, but she didn't voice why it had come up so abruptly.
She knew that she wouldn't be able to eat anymore deer for the time being. It had to be kept cool to slow down the decaying process and from having diseases form across the succulent meat. Glancing down to her catch, she tried to remember a good place to bury the large animal. Although she could do it herself, the time it would take for her to would be forever. She then looked back up to Taurig and decided to come out of her shell a bit more. If not for her sake, for her dinner's. "I know we have just met and I was protective of my catch earlier, but...would you help me bury it for later?"
All she really wanted at this point was to curl up and fall asleep without any disturbances. But she needed the distraction, the attention of someone else to avoid Dragomir haunting her mind...she just didn't realize it.
