To the Highest Bidder Goes the Prize (Chuckeles/butterfly040

Jas ignores her words as he stands up the moment she slips through the door. He draws his sword and begins to destroy everything that he lays eyes on starting with the table before him. His yell of anger can be clearly heard from outside the cabin. His rampage continues as he begins hurtling the glasses into the wall trying to find some escape from the pain of losing Lily.

-----
Gaisse slips off his horse rubbing its head as he examines a set of tracks. "She cant be far from here. I wish she would answer my yells again. LILY!!!" He turns letting his yell echo a few times before yelling her name again hoping to get a response from her.
 
There is silence for a few long moments. And then... there seemed to be a very distant sound. It could have been nothing at all. An echo of his own voice. After a few more moments though, it sounded once more. Sounded like a name being called on the wind yet still it was unclear but it soon became more and more clear, "Gaisse...!"
 
Gaisse slips into his saddle once more as the sound becomes clear hearing her voice call his name. He spurs his horse towards the sound yelling her name once more. "Lily!!" He nudges his horse abit faster heading towards the forest glancing down as he sees tracks heading into the forest. A smile spreads across his lips even as he readies his sword in case he needs it.
 
"Gaisse!" She called back as she heard him calling for her. The sound of his horse growing as did the volume of his yells. "Gaisse I'm here!" she made her way through the trees, looking out to try and spot him. She knew he was close and her heart was soaring with anticipation. "Gaisse!"
 
Gaisse pulls his horse to a stop sliding a few inches as he jumps from the saddle. He yells for Lily again as he begins running towards her voice. He manages to spot her between the trees a smile breaking over his face as he calls her name running towards her. In his excitement he scoops her up into his arms hugging her tightly. "Your safe."
 
"I am!" she cried out as her arms wrapped around him, holding herself close to his body. It felt so good be be tight in his arms, "You kept looking for me? You didn't stop?" she asked him, still holding him in a tight hug. She smiled, knowing even before he responded that he had. Just as she knew he would.
 
Gaisses' arms tighten even further around her as he hugs her close laughing softly. "Of course I kept looking for you. I was thrown off for a while because of all the tracks. I was worried he had hurt you Lily." He strokes her cheek softly looking into her eyes tenderly.
 
She shook her head, "He would not hurt me," Lily told him before resting her head upon his shoulder. She was so worn out after this trying day. It had all been so very much for her. She had lost one love while truly gaining another all in one day. "It's because of that... I wish for use to keep what happened today to us. He... he meant well. He did but right now I just," she sighed, "I want to go home Gaisse. Please take me back home."
 
Gaisse shifts slightly to keep her close squeezing her tightly. He blinks slightly at her words watching her. "You want me to keep what happened to myself? That man kidnapped you and could have hurt you Lily." He caresses her cheek tenderly as he looks into her eyes watching her as he shakes his head slowly. "Your father has to know about this event."
 
She shook her head, "I know what he did was wrong Gaisse. I know that but... I just I don't want him hurt. I just want him to be able to go on with his life. I think he has finally accepted this," she brushed her hand over his cheek, "That I choose you. Not him. He will not bother us so why must we make it so my father will hunt him down? There is no need to vengeance here. He did not touch me or harm me. His only crime was that he looked me once far to much to let me go now without a fight."
 
He sighs softly as he presses his cheek into her hand thinking over her words for a moment. "Alright my love. I will not tell you father or anyone else of this." He lifts his hand to hers squeezing it warmly. "I love you Lily. I thought he was going to harm you." He keeps his hand on hers as he looks into her eyes relief evident in them.
 
The look she saw in his eyes warmed her heart so very much as she dared to press her lips to his a moment in a kiss, "Oh Gaisse, I know now that even though we have only just met... I love you too." She smiled and hugged him tight, "I want my life to be with you. I am so sure of that now."
 
He returns the kiss happily his arms squeezing her waist pulling her closer to him. "I love you dearly Lily. I cant wait for the ceremony to wed us." He smiles softly as he continues to hold on to her winking softly. "I'm glad your perfectly safe." He leans in brushing his lips against hers once more holding the kiss just alittle longer this time.
 
Lily delights in the few more stolen kisses in the wood before she glances up to the sky through the trees. "We need to head back. We must still collect my horse and get home and even then it will be near to dark upon arrival. Everyone will be worried and..." she paused a moment as a realization came over her, "likely will think the worst of what we did today."
 
Gaisse shrugs softly as holds her close. "I dont care what they think. We will know the truth and that is all that matters to me." He takes her hand leading her back towards his horse. "Your mare should be easy enough to find. Im pretty sure she is still where the man pulled you off your horse." He smiles as he moves to help her get on to his stallion that paws the ground feeling Lily's weight.
 
She rests herself into a comfortable position upon the saddle, waiting to him to mount up behind her. He said he would not care, yet a part of her still did care what was said about her. She hid it behind a light smile though, "If she is as good a horse as think, you are hopefully right. I would hate to have to go racing all over the land to find her. And I do not like the idea of loosing her. I have taken such a liking to her."
 
He slips into the saddle behind her his arms slipping around her waist as he takes up the reigns. "If they ask I will tell them your mare became spooked and ran into the woods. It can take an inexperienced rider hours to calm a mount down." He smiles winking at her as he turns his stallion around to head for her mare. "Although you may have to mess your hair up alittle for it to be believable."
 
She smiled a bit, "Perhaps I should ride in with you upon your horse and act as if I am faint...?" she suggested at first as a joke before the idea really washed over her and she found herself coming to like it. "Actually.... perhaps that might be best to make the story truly believable?"
 
He nods quickly as he slips his arm around her waist even tighter. Winking at her with a smile as he explains. "Wouldnt want you to faint again and fall from my horse darling." He winks again followed with a soft squeeze of her waist. "We will have to see about getting you to a healer once we reach the manor."
 
Being wrapped in his arms like this, she felt at ease. Relaxed even so much so that she rested her head back against his chest and shut her eyes gently. "We have a wonderful healer back home. I am sure she will take good care of me, thought you are taking wonderful care of me as well in the meantime."

((Think that will be my last one before bed. Night))
 
Gaisse smiles enjoying the feel of her resting against him. "I take delight in taking care of you Lily." He leans in pressing his lips to her softly for a brief moment. His attention turns back to guiding his horse gently his arm holding her even closer to him. "Hoepfully your brother will forgive me for not taking better care of you." He smiles pausing as they reach her horse. He leans in to take the reigns clucking to the mare as it turns to follow them knickering softly.
 
Lily laughed slightly before it turned into a yawn, "You face a tough one when you face my brother. He will likely be harder on you then my father come to think of it. But all you need do is let him know how you care for me and promise to never let it happen again, I will bat my eyes and bit my lip, then all will be forgiven. You'll see."
 
Gaisse smiles softly squeezing her waist again. "Here I was thinking your father would be the tough one for me to convince when we got back." He tilts his head watching her yawn. "You seem very tired darling. Are you going to feel up to attending dinner with your brother?" He frees a hand from the reigns slipping it into hers warmly. "I dont wish for you to over exert yourself today. Not after everything else weve gone through."
 
"Oh dear," she said her eyes opening as she looked out to see how far from home they were, "I forgot all about dinner with Kiana and Lund." Sighing she closed her eyes once more when she saw the manor coming into view in the distance. "I will nap. Just a short one then we will still have dinner. Having dinner will bring some normalcy back into my head and I want you to get to know Lund and Kiana more..."
 
He nods softly his arms holding her tightly to keep her secure on the horse with him. Begins to hum softly as they ride letting himself relax slowly while still holding her close. HIs eyes move to study the manor noticing the man she named as Angus watching them approach towards the manor's gate. A soft smile spreads across his lips as he slows the horse just alittle wanting to give her more of a chance to sleep.
