Dance with me tonight

Maybe the gods are still watching over me after all... It had been so long since he had heard her voice, felt her touch, had her scent fill his nostrils. He had missed so terribly and the ache for her came crashing down on him with force as she nuzzled herself into his neck. He didn't know how he'd been able to make it all these months without her at his side. Now that he had her back with him, he was never going to separate himself from her side. She was his and he was hers. Done deal. He curled his neck around her, holding her to him, wanting to mold her to his body so that no harm would ever come to her again. His little warrior had fought a tough battle without him and she had managed to hold her own, but he was here now. He was her protector and he would fight each and every battle for her, no matter the cost to him.


I love you too, Conan. I've loved you since that first night we spent together on the island. That's why it ripped me apart when I couldn't find you. I had to force myself not to think about you when I returned to my family after I snapped to keep from spiraling out of control again. You're my missing piece, the glue that holds me together. She loved him too. She loved him too! After months of searching for her, he finally heard the words that he'd so desperately needed to hear. Phoebe loved him too. She was all he need in his life. Nothing more. He would gaze down tenderly towards his little warrior, a grin splitting his lips as she kissed his chin, his tongue reaching out to swipe the tip of her nose. I'm here now my little warrior, I'm here to keep you safe and love you because without you I am nothing... He trailed off, preparing to ask her to spend forever with him as his wife when the presence of another had the words dying on his lips.


He would lift his head, ruby eyes falling on the ebony figure of Natalya. He remembered the dark dame. She'd been one of the first wolves he'd met when he'd arrived in Alacritis. A frown would furrow his brow as she spoke, addressing Phoebe as sister. He glance down to Phoebe then back to Natalya. That was certainly unexpected. The dark woman would turn her attention to the behemoth, greeting him before getting straight to the point; Tell me, where have you been?. Good to see you too Natalya. And up until right now, I don't really know. Few months ago a storm came upon the island Phoebe and I were holed up in. I managed to get her to safety, but it swept me away in the process. I was injured in the storm, and when I came to I couldn't remember anything. It took me two months to regain my memory and when I did, the first thing I did was start looking for Phoebe. I needed to see her. Took me months to find my way back to Alacritis and now I'm here. He didn't know if Nat would believe his story, but it was the honest truth. He hadn't abandoned her sister. Phoebe knew that. Now Nat would know that too.
