The blush still very present on his cheeek, Asyron slowly looked back to her and reached out, hesitating for a moment before placing a hand gently onto her shoulder "Aiko, not once in my mind did I think you could be such a thing and I still don't...so please, do not feel that you should be silent for you have no reason to...you are a warrior and a brave, strong one." Eyes roaming over her form for a but a moment, he stared back down for a moment before saying slightly louder then he would want "...and...very beautfiul, kind hearted woman..."
 
Her heart skipped a beat as she heard the last bit of his words. Looking over her shoulder slightly to see he wasn't exactly looking at her but she reached up and grasped his hand gently. "Thank you...This maybe a personal question but do you socialize with women?" With his quiet shy side she found him interesting and she wanted to know more about him or atleast why he didn't have a home. "How come you do not have a home with the villagers?"
 
The blush having gone down slightly, he took a small gulp as she took his hand into hers, admiring the feeling of her soft, smooth feeling of her fur for a few moments before he gave a response to her, looking back up to her"Umm...w-well...not really, no. You see right now the home given to me by the town may be a permanent home...but I have yet to deside. You see like you I was a nomad for most of my life once I finished with my time at the academy I attended." As he spoke he began to slowly relax more and more but did not lose the hint of redness on his cheeks. "Once I came to this town though in my travel they were in need of desperate help. They were having trouble with both a group of bandits and monster that took up residence close to them. It was then that I desided that they required my help and in return for helping them, they desided to give me a home. Recently though it has began to grow quiet and has started to become peaceful."
 
She listened in silence seeing he had training as well. For a male he seemed delicate. Maybe it was because he studied with his mind instead of working. Aiko felt the long grass brushing against the her outer thighs when they crossed the wide open meadows. "When I was a cub I was captured with my mother for slavery." Aiko didn't mind telling him this but somehow she felt like he was going to find out if he traveled with her. "So, I wasn't always free like you. When I was old enough the Golden Knights were riding by but the second in command saw me being pushed into a tree to be punished. I fought back against my owner..." She said with her laughing softly as her memory wasn't completely in tack.

"Before I knew it. I was taken away from the fields and I was in a Golden Knight's arms. It seemed after that it felt like the balance seemed to shift from trust among the men to not trusting his choice on taking me on." Aiko turned the reigns having the mare stop at a river bank to drink but Aiko jumped down to stretch her legs. "I imagine you went through the uncertain among the others until you could prove yourself, correct?" She asked as she walked over him him with her leaning against the mare, looking up at him.
 
As he listened to her tale with equal silence that she gave him, a small frown growing on his face. As the mare came to a stop at the river bank he gently hoped off and streched out his body. Upon hearing her speak to him once more he looked to her shyly and rubbed the back of his head "Umm...w-well...I suppose so. As there is with any place one goes to train in whatever sort of thing, there were people that formed groups that thought they were superior and they were the only ones that really attempted to give me trouble..."

It was clear though that there was more to his past that he was speaking of to her but with how he spoke of it, it was clear he was hesitant to talk of something. Standing at the edge of the river, Asyron made a few gestures with his hands before a sphare of water levitated from the river and slowly hover in front of him. Closing his eyes and consintrating, a ripple went through the sphare before a gathering of impurity was seperated from the water before falling to the ground as Asyron pulled a small flask from his pocket and entered the water into it, taking a brief sip.
 
Aiko watched as he wandered over to the river side. There she ran her hand over the mare's flanks while the horse drank. Though both of their ears kept twitching at every little sound. Thinking it through as Aiko looked over at Asyron seeing him filling his canteen.

"Asyron, I don't think we can make it to the village at the moment." She said softly as she began to remove her saddle and reigns from the mare. "If anything happened while we traveled now more than likely we'd be unmatched and defeated." Her voice was soft with her walking over to a soft spot in the grass. There she unhooked her golden armor to reveal the red fabric that covered her form. The cool air ruffled her exposed fur making her tremble with delight. "I suggest you get as much rest as possible before morning hits."
 
Looking up at the night sky for a few moments, he gave a nod in agreement to Aiko as she removed the saddle and reigns from the horse. He continued filling his canteen for a few more seconds before he finally screwed on its cap and put it in his pocket. Turned around, Aiko came into view just as she finished remove her armor. A deep blush on his cheek as he gazed upon her semi-naked form he would quickly spin around in embaressment "M-My apologizes L-Lady Aiko! I was not aware that you had b-began to undress! P-Please, forgive me!" As he was speaking he had be walk off towards a tree, as if about to hide behind it.
 
She gave a soft laugh as she went over to Asyron and took him by his hand. "I am covered still just not by the heavy thick armor. So relax its not if I'm seducing you to make love." She said softly with her tail flicking once in awhile but she let his hand go with her walking to the woods. "If you wish to hide then so be it but stay within hearing distance." She called back to him before she disappeared into the woods to get dry fire wood. It took her twenty minutes to find wood that would last through the night.

Normally she slept without the camp fire but she thought this would make him feel bit more at ease. Silently she returned to the spot where her mare has bedded down. Smiling at the young horse as if the horse was an old friend. Sighing softly with Aiko putting the wood down on the sandy bank only to lite the wood after having trouble with the flint stones.
 
The blush remaining constant on his face as she took him by the hand and his body briefly shivered. Giving a nod to her, he slowly turned around as she turned and walked away, his eyes once more roaming over her. Gulping nervously, he slowly walked over to where the fire would be made and sat down silently. Waiting paitently for her to return, he looked to her as she did and gave a soft, shy but warm smile to her. He watch her as she attempted to start a fire and as he was about to speak, he watch as she finally got it to start "Umm...if y-you would have liked...I c-could have conjured up some fire for you."

Looking around at the surround, his smile remained as he took in the peacefulness that graced them. "I do apologize for acting so nervous...its just, like I said, I have not had much interaction with others socially...or...physically w-with the female gender." At this he looked down to his lap as he began to twiddle his thumbs for a brief moment.
 
Her amber eyes turned to him when he admitted to not having much interaction with women. Smiling softly as she laid down in the warm sand. "I'm not worried about it. I mean I've been around men but not sexually. I mean I never found any man or male to fall in love with." She laid her ears back with her looking away from him. Though her eyes were on the water. Silently cursing to herself as she got to her feet. "I'm sorry but I'm going to go for a swim." She said softly before she headed down stream once she thought she was out of sight she stripped down to her young form. Before she would jump him she ran her fingers through her fur. She stood there naked and purring since running her fingers through her own fur got her to feeling good.
 
"Oh...umm, w-well alright. I guess i'll...stay here and watch our things. Yell of you require anything at all." Offering a small smile as she got up to leave, he sat there for a few moments before he started to sit up. He grew tempted to follow her to and watch her but after a shake of the head, he thought more rationally but gave a small frown and sat back down. He reached into a pack that was at his side and took out a book, openning it up and beginning to read in silence and solitude "Of course I would find her attractive...I mean...who in their right mind wouldn't...but...if she had yet to find someone that she found to like...what chance would someone as plain as me have." As he seemingly spoke to himself he let out a small sigh and continued to read, a few more moments passing before he shook his head "No...there is no way..."
 
Smiling softly to herself after rubbing her hands through her fur. After she ran her fingers through her fur she walked into the shallow water before she dived right under the cool water. While Asyron was reading she swam around but once she was done she walked to the shore and fell into the grass. Shivering slightly as the cool air was drying the water. Though Aiko stayed there lying on her stomach, relaxing.
 
Seconds turned to minuted and minutes soon turned to an hour as he layed there reading. At one point his eyes began to slowly close and reopen several times. Letting out a small yawn, he rubbed his eyes gently before attempting to continue his reading. However he'd find his eyes growing heavier with each passing moment and it would not be long before sleep finally overtook him. Arms resting on his chest, the book covered his face as he slept peacefully.
 
After the hour had passed Aiko opened her eyes to see her fur was dried off. Stretching her body out before she got dressed. Once she was dressed she headed back to where she left Asyron. Her steps were silent as she came to a stop see him sleeping there as if nothing bothered him. Laughing softly as she walked closer to him and removed the book from his face to see he looked cute when he slept.

Her ears went back as she realized she found Aysron very cute and she was growing fond of him. Once she placed his book down at his side she went over to the fire and placed more wood in before she laid down beside it.
 
(The next day)

Throughout the night Asyron slept peacefully with only a few occasions where he changed position or let out some small sound such as a groan. As she sun rose on the new day though he groaned in displeasure and turned on his side, as if wishing for a few more moments of rest. However, as if the sun had a mind of its own, it was having none of it as it slowly rose and the light became more intense. Letting out another groan, his eyes gently fluttered open before he rubbed one of them and let out a small yawn. He stretched out his arms and started to look at the surrounding area for anything out of the ordinary and to see how Aiko was.
 
With the sun rising Aiko hid her eyes under her raven black hair in hopes of blocking out the sun's bright light. Still in her sleep she curled up into a fetal position. Though with her constant moving her tail began to flick as if tell she was starting to wake up. With a soft groan her eyes opened slowly then shut as she stretched her body out in a twisting positon.

Moaning in delight as she came to a rest to look over at Asyron to see him stirring. Smiling as she sat up looking at him. "Morning."
 
A light blush on his cheek, he offered the fur covered woman a shy but warm smile and gave a small nod to her "Umm, good morning Aiko...I have to admit that I kinda...expected to wake up and find out that everything that happened was nothing more then a dream." Letting out a small, embaressed, and shy laugh he reached back and rubbed the back of his head before continuing "I am happy though...in more ways then one that it wasn't a dream..." Smiling for a few more moments, he then reached into his pack and pulled out his canteen, openning it and taking a sip before holding it out to Aiko, offering her some water.
 
Smiling at him as she took his offer and took a small sip from his canteen. When she was finished she handed it back to him and smiled at him as she was happy to hear he was glad this wasn't a dream. Getting ot her feet as she stretch her arms above her head. She bent backwards for a few moments before looking back down at him.

"Sorry it took me awhile to get back. I had to wash the blood and the scent of blood from my fur." She said softly before walking over to the grazing mare. Placing her hand on the mare's chin and lead her back over to their small camp site. There she saddled the horse back up with the reigns. In the distance she could see the village from where they were. Aiko's fur was being ruffled by the wind as she looked over at Asyron. "So...What made you become a wizard?" She said in a shy voice hoping he didn't pick up on it that she was starting to get feelings for him.
 
Thinking back to his past, a frown slowly began to form on his face as his gaze fell to the ground. Eyes filled with sorrow and his body slumped as if it was becoming lifeless, a sign that the though of his past was making his distressed and filled with sadness. Slowly he began to look back up to her and offered a smile dispite the distress he was feeling "It is...not a pleasent story...or a...pleasent reason why I chose to become a wizard. Actually...I didn't have a choice. If I had not then...I...I...I would not be exactly who you have slowly gotten to know." Staring back down to his lap this time, his hands gripped his pants tightly.
 
Her eyes fell to the ground as she felt like she crossed the line with that question. With her hands folded over the front of her lap as she advanced slow to him. Once she was behind him she fell to her knees with her arms wrapping around him with her cheek nuzzling into the back of his neck.

"I'm sorry I brought it up. Please...Cheer up." She said softly with her hands gently touching his chest and she closed her eyes. Gently she nuzzled into the back of his neck wanting to see him smile atleast.
 
As she wrapped her arms around his body and pressed her cheek against him he let out a small gasp of surprise. His body shivered at the feeling of her fur against hist skin and his cheeks turned slightly red. He slowly began to relax as he became use to the being so close to the woman he was beginnign to grow feelings over and turned around in her grasp to face her and stared into her eyes. A few moments passed before he finally spoke once more "Why is it...you care?" Though he only spoke those few words it was clear he didn't mean it in an ungreatful way.
 
She grown comfortable in that position but when he moved around to face her her hands moved over his shoulders. Her ears perked up when he asked why did she care. Her eyes drifted from him as that question could mean anything at the moment. Why did she care to correct herself after she brought up the unwanted question? Why did she get between him and the demon who could have gave a fatal blow as she flew from the window? Or why was she not treating this whole thing as if it meant nothing?

Aiko's hands fell from him and hit her lap. "You know that phrase can mean anything...." She said in a whispered but what she said next just slipped from her lips. "I've grown fond of you."
 
Looking at her in complete shock, surprise but happiness as well, he was the one to wrap his arms around her this time in a greatful hug. When he pulled away though the smile was still on his face but now hidden behind it was a sign of worry that one could possibly pick up on. "I am happy to know you are fond of me for I am fond of you as well...but...I should not even being keeping to my tradition and staying with you. It...puts you at greater risk then what you already face."
 
HEr eyes went wide when he wrapped his arms around her. Though was shocked when he told her of he shouldn't be around her. Shaking her head as she fell back onto her hands looking at him. "What do you mean?"
 
The smile on his face slowly fading, he stared back down at his lap. Seconds passed before he finally began speaking again but it was with hesitation, clear uncertainty in his voice "Y-You know the saying...that every person has their own demon...or demons inside them? That they have their own darker side...?"
