Wild Life

She felt his muscles and body relax under her hands. It made her smile that she could make his body feel good, in more ways than just sex. That obviously felt nice for both of them. She continued to get deeper into his tensed muscles and they soon and quickly relaxed.

As she continued he said something that quickly caught her attention. Love, he said he could love her forever. She immediately felt his muscles go right back to being tensed and she moved her hands off of him for a moment. She paused and thought maybe it was magic that made him say it or something. It seemed like he hadnt meant it, or was unsure and she looked down at her hands.

She didnt reply but just kind of stood there and then walked around to face him. Her heart was racing and he looked nervous almost. She smiled and then looked at her hands again. She then realized she was the nervous one, she had butterflys in her stomach and was slightly unsure of what to say.
"Latro...is that what love is?"

And she took his hand and put it on her racing heart and then bent down and leaned in, kissing his passionately. She pulled back and then let go of his hand and looked into his eyes.
 
He sighed, as her fingers left his skin, and she made her way around to face him with the impossible question. “It might be. I think so. I think it's when two people do whatever they can for the other.” He didn't know what else to say, but if his words were true, then he loved her very much.

Latro reached out to pull her to him, letting her lags straddle his, so she could sit in his lap and look at each other. “If that's the definition we use, then I do love you. It's scary, to me to think it, but true." he leaned close and kissed her. “Ferox, I want you to stay here with me. You really are part of the family now, and more then just that to me.”

He didn't know how to explain the 'more', and words proved very inadequate to explain anything at the moment.

But confessing only half his heart would never do, and he knew he had to add the rest. “But I'm also afraid of you. I'm afraid you're going to wake up one day, and remember another world and leave me alone. I'm afraid you wont want to stay one day, and that the innocent woman, nearly untouched by the horrible ways of civilization will be forgotten to everyone but me, the man the loved her.”
 
As he pulled her close to him she sat on his lap looking into his eyes. She was worried about something he was going to say. That he would take it back or something. She loved him, she wanted to stay with him and be with him. And he said he wanted her to stay, but as he spoke she just stayed quiet.

He continued and voiced that if thats how they viewed love then he loved her. And a smile came to her face as he said it. But what followed that was hard for her to swallow. Her memories, it was her he was afraid of. It was a hard hit and she hated it. Once again she went back to being torn between two different people.

She then leaned in and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"I dont want to leave, i'll never leave you. I love you, i will never ever leave."
Tears formed in her eyes as she spoke holding onto him. She leaned back and wiped her eyes looking at him and kissed him.
"I wont leave you. I dont want my memories back, i dont need them..."

She then leaned back in wrapping her arms around his neck and putting her face into his neck. She wasnt lieing in that she didnt want to leave him no matter what. Her memories were no longer something she wanted back. Staying this way was fine with her, to stay as the playful fun child that Latro fell in love with. Would he not love her if she got her memories back? She didnt want to think about that and she took a deep breath holding onto him.
 
They held each other, and let tears of joy and worry fall. He didn't know what else to do, but hold her, and never let her go. When he finally spoke, it was with a soft, voice, “Then let's just live as we are, for as long as that lasts, and love each day that comes.” he pressed his lips to hers, in a long, drawn out kiss.

Eventually he picked her up off his lap, and stood up; again lifting her into his arms, and walking over to the bed. He lay her down, comfortably, and knelt beside the bed, stroking her hair and face; just staring into her eyes. One day at a time, that's how things worked out here. Plan for what you would, but you had to focus on the present. Right now, she was here, and he'd keep to his ways of focusing on that.

“My dear Ferox, what gods should I thank for you?”
 
As he lifted her up she wiped the tears from her eyes and looked at him. Being layed down her eyes wouldnt leave his and she never wanted them too. As he stroked her hair and face her eye lids grew heavier. But when his question came she smiled and replied softly.
"The same ones that brought you to me."

She leaned over and kissed him again tugging him into bed with her. She immediately got close to him, letting one hand rest on his strong chest as her head rested on him gently. She yawned and snuggled in closer.

Tomorrow would be a new day and hopefully they could carry on as usual and not let this new aspect of things change what was going on between them. She loved him and meant it, and as far as she knew he loved her and that was the best thing she had ever heard. As her eyes began to close she looked up and kissed his chin. and spoke softly.
"I love you..."
 
She fit perfectly against him, as she drifted off to sleep. He had been tired, but now couldn't sleep; wanting to watch her and hold her forever. He had remembered the intense rush of feelings of a fresh love confessed, though this was far greater as it was not expected. A voice in the back of his mind tried to warn him of moving too fast; tried to remind him of the pain he'd once felt due to love, and all the risks this woman carried. But it was a tiny voice, that stood no chance against the rejoicing choir that the rest of him had become.

As the fire crackled in the background, and the heat of her body next to his under the blankets, his eye lids eventually grew heavy, and he drift off, with his Ferox still in his arms. He dreamt of her; her perfect body in the river wearing nothing but that mysterious green gem pendant. She smiled to him, and called him to her, but just as he reached her the scene changed. Now he was playfully chasing her through the forest, her innocent laughter echoing between the trees, as the birds of the woods cheered them on.

Each time he reached her in a dream, then the scene changed, but he couldn't complain, and a smile covered his sleeping face the entire night. When down came, he didn't want to move. She was still there, and still warm, now that the fire was all but out. Hymi and Isan were both still asleep together in their bed of pelts near the fire. He knew he should get up, and add a log or two to the coals that remained, as it was a chilly morning; but the idea of remaining under the covers with his lover definitely had more allure. Finally, he kissed her forehead, and slipped out from under both her and the covers, and faced the cold. He was thankful for the fur rugs that covered most of his floor, and missed them on the last few feet before reaching the hearth, his bare feet on objecting to the cold stone.

He added the longs, smiled at the dogs that watched him work, and then danced his way back over to his bed. Ferox has stirred, at least noticing his absence, and he crawled back in to join her. “Miss me?” He joked.
 
After quickly falling asleep Ferox laid gently beside him as soft simple dream floated through her mind. Lots of dreams of flowers, swimming, and Latro. Part of her dream was not as pure as some of the others, but it was beautiful non the less. As the morning came and the chill of the new day came in she curled up more under the blankets only to see that her lover was not beside her.

But as he climbed back in bed with her she smiled and answer his question with a kiss.
"Of course i did, i like waking up next to you."
She quickly maneuvered herself so that she was completely covered by blankets but close to Latro. That morning an odd feeling, the same odd feeling he had given her before came up. She grew wet inbetween her legs and longed for him to be inside her. The dream from that night lingering in her mind. Giving him a devilishy seductive smile she thought about what to do next.

She loved the way he could make her feel so good without even touching her. She hoped he felt the same also. So she kissed him again and decided to try something that she had remembered. She caressed his muscular chest and then kissed it. Kissing her way lower and lower. Looking up at him she started to stroke his cock letting him grow harder.
"I hope you dont mind...."
And she grinned as her lips fluttered against his stiffening member. Not letting him inside her mouth but letting her lips tease him. Then slowly letting her tongue slide against him. She looked up in hopes he was enjoying it. He had pleasure her with his mouth before and she had loved it, and this was her try at pleasuring him.
 
He loved being welcomed back to bed with a kiss, and her warm smile, not to mention her warm body under the covers. The logs he;d added were quickly doing their job of heating the room, and Ferox seemed to have another way of heating things up, as she kissed her way down his chest while rubbing his quickly growing tool.

“How could I mind? That feels great....” He was cut off by her putting her lips to his member, and so he just laid back to enjoy; watching his amazing friend put her mouth all him. He'd not often received this kind of treat, even back when he was planning to be wed, so every sensation she gave him, was practically new. “Oh my,” was all he could stutter when her tongue reached out to caress him. He was rock solid after that, and ached to have whatever it was she had in mind to give him.

Staring down at his mate, he smiled at her and made soft moans of deeply sincere approval to everything she did. He was at a loss as to how to act, and felt a oddly delightful sense of helplessness under her touch. He wanted more, much more, but could not have been able to describe what more entailed. Innocent lovers discovered their own path on how to please each other, free of prior expectations or what was socially acceptable. Latro could not have been happier with his fortune, as he looked into the eager eyes of his Ferox, while she teased him to new heights.
 
He was enjoying himself and she was rather pleased with herself that she could do this to him. Not only did his words tell her he was happy but the way his cock grew from her touch. So she continued. Her tongue sliding up and down and lingering at the tip for a moment she looked away from Latro letting her lips wrap around him.

Securely her lips wrapped around him and shielded her teeth from touching. She then started to move her head up and down letting him get deep into her warm mouth. Her wet tongue gliding against him as she kept moving. She continued with this for a bit longer until her jaw started to get sore. That and she too wanted to feel pleasure and she planned her next move.

As her mouth slid off she licked her lips and looked at Latro.
"Close your eyes."
She smiled and waited for him to do so. Once he had, she moved herself on top of him and stradled his cock slowly lowering herself onto it. Moaning as she did she leaned down and kissed his lips.
"you can open them now."

She moved her hips letting him fill her completely. She let her chest rest on his and she kissed him deeply and passionately as her hips moved up and down.
 
He wanted to object when she left his shaft and told him to close his eyes, but he just whimpered and complied. He felt her moving on the bed, and then smiled as he felt her descend onto him with an entirely different set of lips. She kissed him and he was greeted to the sight of her cheerful face pressed to his. Her body lay against him as she gently rocked her hips to please them both.

They kissed passionately while gently loving, and Latro was lost in the feelings, both physical and emotional that she brought in him. The other day by the river had been fast, and wild, but here, was something all together different, and wonderful in it's own way. His arms wrapped around her to hug and then to caress her skin. Instinctively his hips rose to join her, and retreated when she did, to add to their experience.

His hands grew less idle in their wandering, and began to grip and pull at her flesh; unhurried, but in a display of need, and want. He wanted her, and only her, and all of her. Moans escaped between kisses, and the pace of the undulating bodies under the covers increased slightly. Had he known about this last night whens he asked what love was, this would have been his answer. Body and mind were one, and in total agreement over who he needed.
 
As his arms wrapped around her and their kiss got deeper she moaned more feeling him push himself deeper as she moved her hips to do the same. Her arms bracing herself as they continued their passionate love making. Her moans slowly getting louder as they continue, his hands gripping her skin. She wanted to make him happy like she had only a few moments before, and from his actions she was.

But her mind then turned to her own pleasure and she let out a lound pleasurable groan as their bodies moved faster and she got closing to reaching her climax. She pushed herself deeper onto him and harder. She put her face by his neck and let out a hot breath onto his skin as she moaned.

Her body was hot as she grew to that wanted orgasm. They moved in sync with each other and then she came. Her juices washing over his cock as her back arched hard and her leg twitched. She nearly collapsed completely but still maintained some balance. Moaning and groaning as it got drawn out longer and she reach that moment of over sensitivity waiting for him to reach the same height of pleasure she had.
 
The only semi-rational thought rolling around in his head as they mated, was how lucky a man he was. Beyond that he was focused on her body, and the pleasure it brought him to every sense. Her skin tasted somehow right, and the scent in the room seemed to drive them both on. But her moans were a music to his ears that we could not get enough of. All this added to the hot, slick satin of her wrapped around his cock, as they mutually met to slide it completely inside her, and part only to do so again.

As she became more hurried, and buried her face in his shoulder, he understood her need, and helped her along. He met her faster pace with harder thrusts, and soon she was nearly shouting into his skin as pleasure ran wild through her body. He felt her tighten around him, as well as see and hear the effects of her prolonged orgasm, and he raced to finish with her.

Within seconds he let out an unintelligible shout as he found his own release. With a few more, erratic thrusts, he was spent, and resigned to enjoy her spent body laying on top of his, equally limp form. His member still resting, though softer, withing her silky grip.

Latro wrapped his arms around her again, to keep her forever and just lay there enjoying her weight on him, and the haze of wonder that filled his head.
 
As he got the same rush of pleasure and release that she had gotten her body relaxed on top of his. She layed there on his chest trying to catch her breath. She then slowly adjusted herself and pulled him out of her wetness and layed there next to him. She was a bit sore from the whole thing as well as the day before. It all kind of sunk in as she layed next to her lover.

She finally got her breathing back to normal and she leaned over and kiss him with just the same amount of passion as before. She truely loved him, she now figured out why he couldnt tell her what love was, because she was at a loss for words if she were asked to say what it was, she'd probably just say 'Latro' because he is love in her eyes.

Her body lay against his and her arm once again moved across his strong chest and she smiled.
"Do we have to get out of bed? I like being like this with you."
She asked softly hoping they could lay there like that for much longer.
 
He smiled and hugged her close, loving her warm skin pressed against his. “We can lay here, just like this, until our stomachs make us do something else.” He looked down at her beautifully peaceful face, and kissed her brow, “Or you feel like being so intimate again, then just give me a little while, and I think I can accommodate you.” He chuckled, and almost felt bad that he couldn't physically stay hard for hours and make love to her for half the day straight. It wasn't a rational thought, but he had been having much less logical, rational thoughts and feelings in the past few days, especially where she was concerned.

He heard movement in the room, and glanced down to see two furry faces staring up at him, as they sat patiently beside the bed. The wolves looked expectant and curious. “It's your turn to get breakfast,” he told them, and laughed. Hymi tilted her head, and turned around and left through a small door he'd made for them.

He had drifted off into a cozy place, loving the feel of her body rising and falling with her satisfied breath next tie him; the fire crackling in the background. Then he heard something familiar, and couldn't help but burst out laughing. Outside, but not far, it seemed that Hymi and Isan had decided it was time to mate as well; the she-wolf's yelps and Isan's howl easily recognized. “I think we have competition.” He continued to chuckle.
 
Ferox continued to stay next to Latro, not wanting to ever leave his loving arms. She wasnt sure about having sex again but it was an option if they chose to later on. She then too saw Hymi and Isan next to the bed and she smiled at them as they gave her an odd look and then trotted out to begin their mating. She giggled with latro at the thought of them as 'competition'.

She then sat up momentarily and stretched her back and her arms then layed back down with her man. Getting in close to him again.
"I like being with you in bed, but my stomach keeps growling."
And she blushed as it made a small noise. She was a hungry and her appetite had grown since she had 'moved in' with Latro. He was able to feed her better than she had ever been able to feed herself.

Ferox then pressed her lips against his and slowly pulled away as she smiled sweetly and innocently at him. She then gracefully got out of bed and put her newly made clothes on. She didnt really need to wear them but she enjoyed wearing them, they made her feel pretty. She then thought for a moment and turned to Latro.
"Am I pretty? You have seen other girls, and i dont remember any others, but am I nice looking like other girls?"

It wasnt something that was burning at her mind but she did want to know. She felt beautiful so therefore she thought she was, but she wasnt sure what Latro thought of her if she were compared to other girls.
 
He wanted to protest, but was silkened with her kiss; a kiss he could not get enough of. Instead he playfully pouted at her departure from the bed, but his own gut sympathized with hers. It was time to eat.

He moved, slowly, with much added drama, out of the bed, and put his feet on the hide beside the bed and watched her dress. When her question came, it came with nearly the same wonder a little girls asks of her father. She stood there, wearing rough leather clothing, her dark hair unevenly cut, and still a mess from sleeping and their mating. But those eyes, gleaming more then her pendant, who's magnificent gem paled to compare to hers, bore into him and melted his heart all over. He'd never seen anyone more perfect.

Latro rose from the bed, and crossed the few steps to her, wrapping her up in his arms, where she belonged, once more. “You're beautiful. Other women, in towns, and cities, fuss over themselves. They work to impress each other and the men; adding colors to their face, and buying the newest dresses. But you, you just stand there, and it's perfect.” He punctuated his answer with a deep, passionate kiss, to convey just how he felt on the subject.

He was interrupted by the growling of someone's stomach. Who's exactly he could not say for certain, but they laughed anyway. “Ok, seems I should make us some breakfast before I dote on you too much more.” Smiling, and parting with a smaller kiss, he moved over to the pots and barrels, and started creating something to eat for them.
 
When his answer came it came with one of her favorite things. Being in his arms. She felt so safe and his answer seemed that much more honest. She was pretty to him and thats what mattered. She wanted him to think that and was glad he did and it made her feel that much better. But when he kissed her she knew he meant it, and his word would never be broken.

As they giggled at their hungry stomachs and he pulled away she wanted to run back over and hug him but she knew at some point she has to let go and let him do what he needs to do, that and she was terribly hungry. She sat down in one of the chairs and watched him cook.

Hymi and Isan must have 'finnished' in their time and seemed to smell what was soon to be breakfast and trotted their way inside. Scratching both of their heads all 3 of them watched Latro until everything was finally done and all could eat. She ate rather hungrily and quickly, loving the taste of everything her lover prepared for her.

"So what are we doing today Latro?"
She asked softly while finnishing up her breakfast. She wasnt super eager to start the day but she did like doing things, especially with him. After their morning fun in bed her legs were slightly sore but she figured he didnt need to know that. She loved being with him, doing everything with him, and so on. He made her happier than he culd imagine.
 
After breakfast was done, he looked out the small window, and wondered that himself. He had left the deer hide from yesterday to cure, so today meant more hunting. He wasn't looking forward toward getting a bear, and decided that could wait, and try their luck with traps before stalking the forests largest predator.

“Today, we need to hunt. First we'll set a trap for a bear, and then go get us a deer. A large buck will do, but two smaller ones will do. I only take the weakest and oldest. Let the strongest go to survive and keep their kind safe. I'm really hoping that the bear pit will work; hunting them is rather dangerous, but we need his fur to keep you warm this winter.”


He finally dressed, his loose pants tucked into his boots. Next year, when he went to town, he would buy cloth for her. Maybe he'd take her...but that brought up more questions then he wanted to face today. For now, he would focus on the hunt. He grabbed his bow and arrows, and handed her her spears, plus a few of his, which were tipped with flint heads.

Latro led her out to the woods to a clearing. He motioned for her to stay back, and began remove thick wooden beams that held up a solid surface of wood and rock. It took him some time, but eventually he exposed a hole, roughly 10 feet wide, and nearly 15 deep. “This took forever to dig, and I never wanted to do it again. So I covered it up, and lined the edge to prevent too much erosion. It's not in bad shape since I had to fix it up last year. Not that it worked last year. But the basic idea is to lure the bear over the hole, and it falls onto the stakes at the bottom. It takes some real work getting him out later, but its all a good deal better then tossing spears at an angry bear while you run for your life.”

With the edges now clearly visible, he let her help him secure the stakes at the bottom, and then cover the hole with a net, followed by leaves and dirt, to look like normal ground. He set the bait, and led her over to where they would wait. “So we scare off the smaller animals and wait for the big guy to show. It's not the most fun, but we'll have time to chat a while.” He grinned at her.
 
When he said they were going to hunt she got excited. Since she hadnt been able to go with before she was eager to this time. Plus it was more time she got to spend with him outside in the woods. She liked his home but she prefered being out amongst the trees or in the water, but the breeze was getting cooler and swimming may come to an end before winter comes.

When they came to the clearing and he unveiled his bear trap she was rather impressed that he had dug the whole thing himself, since it was rather large. She then helped him set the trap with the stakes and heard his 'plan' for how it all worked agreeing that running for their lives was something she didnt want to do. He said they could chat, but about what she wasnt sure. She sat next to him with her body right up against his and sighed happily watching her favorite birds fly overhead.

The breeze was still cool and she leaned over to Latro letting her hand caress his cheek, feeling the coarse hair that was starting to grow back in and she kissed him softly.
"I'm glad you found me."
She said it calmly and plainly and she slowly let her hand fall off his cheek. Ferox then smiled cutely and readjusted herself and her clothes for a moment and then settled back into her seat.

She started to get a little impatient waiting for it all and scaring off rabbits and squirrels that happened to run near the trap. She wasnt one to sit still for long periods of time and she sighed again wanting to run around and play instead of wait for a bear to come if it ever would. But she did understand needing to stay warm in the winter which was very important. But boredom was getting the best of her.
 
Waiting with her was enjoyable enough, especially with the sweet things she said, but boredom quickly set in. Several hours passed, and rabbits and other little critters were easy to scare off, but the wolves and birds were not. More then stones and shouts were required there, until Latro had to run at them with a spear screaming, to get them to run off.

The morning was gone, and noon had come and went, but still nothing. He was about to give up, over the hole properly again, when he heard something large moving in the distance. He immediately returned to Ferox, and put his finger to her lips, pointing over in the direction of the noise. He led her, slowly and quietly to the other side, staying in the brush or behind rocks, until they were no longer up wind of the bear. All he should smell was the meat, and curiosity should be enough to handle what was needed. Latro watched the medium sized black bear circle the hanging meat. A beautiful animal, and he couldn't have asked for a better size of creature for their purposes.

He always felt bad, tricking natures creatures to lure and kill them, but the bear would eat him, if it must, to survive the winter. It was the way of things out here. The bear stepped closer, and then it was done. A deep roar filled the air as the beast crashed to it's fate down below. Latro quickly leaped from his hiding spot, several spears in hand, and came to the edge where the bear had fallen in. The bear continued to roar in pain, so Latro took aim, and hurled a spear down with all his might, cutting the bears throat. Seconds later there was no more pain, only work to be done.

He descended into the pit, and began lifting the ropes he'd left on the ground up and over the body, tied them off and pulled the stake out of the bear and ground. When he climbed back out of the hole, he had several ropes which he tossed over the very thick branch above the hole, and over to the opposite side that a huge tree. In his pack were a few pads of leather, to go under this rope to keep it from catching, and a large re-enforced leather square, with eyelets at each corner.

“This is the hard, and long part. I will climb back up, and lower my pack. You must fill it with the biggest rocks you can find. I'll put these in that large leather catch, and eventually we'll lift the bear out of the hole. We may even be home not long after dark, if we hurry.” With that, he climbed back up the huge tree, and lowered his pack, on it's own rope.
 
Finally the bear had come and their wait was over. After the bear had finally died and Latro began explaining to her what to do, the 2 went to work. Until late late into the night they had finnished and brought the bear back to the house and finnished everything they both sat inside barely able to move and finally deciding to get to bed. Both dirty and exhausted from the days work.

After sleeping through the rest of the night and the following morning Ferox opened her eyes mid-day. Finding herself naked and entangled with Latro on the bed. He still sleeping. She quietly removed herself from bed and looked down at her rather dirty body and then over at Latro smiling. She walked back over to the bed and kissed his forehead and let him sleep.

He had worked his ass off the previous days just to keep her warm in the winter and she wanted him to sleep and get his rest. She walked out to the river and let herself go for a swim. Her whole body ached and the cold water felt nice. She cleaned herself off as best she could and crawled back out and walked back up to see Latro still sleeping. Hymi and Isan looked up at her and she pet them and then started playing with them on the ground but she tryed to contain her giggles as to not wake her sleeping lover.
 
Latro slept for what felt like days. Sometimes, after working that hard, he did sleep a day away, waking for dinner. Today he made it until after noon. Groaning as he felt every muscle in his body complain, he looked over and found himself alone. That was reason enough to get up, to see her.

He managed to crawl from bed, and after a bit of stretching, he caught sight and smell of himself, and decided to grab the soap and head for the river. He opened the door and found his Ferox playing with the pups, and he smiled. “Seems I slept in. Sorry about that. There is some bread in there, and jam. We'll be having bear stew tonight, and likely for a long time, so I'll make something different for lunch once I wash up.”

He bent over to kiss her brow, and pet the wolves and then made his way down to the water, and dove in, naked as the day he was born. The water was cool, and he longed for a hot bath. Maybe if they finished up everything needed for winter early, there would be time to visit the hot springs, a day and a half hike north.

Feeling clean was great, though he was still sore from his hair down to his toe nails. And just more work to follow today; cleaning the bear, removing and preparing the hide and fur, or at least starting it. That should take most the day, or what was left of it. Maybe into tomorrow. And tomorrow would be more hunting, and then more cleaning and preparing. The week ahead looked to be full of hard work. But once all was taken care of, he could make her winter cloths, and repair some of his. They would both be warm as fall grew colder. Then they would need to collect firewood for the winter.

Life out here was constant work, but at least now he had a companion. She really did make each day more enjoyable.
 
After his kiss Ferox watched as she saw her lover head down to the river to bathe just as she had. She then continued her playing with the pups until her already tired body got tired once again. She enjoyed being playfull but her muscles were screaming to be left alone and she never liked to listen. Laying on the ground next to them as Isan nudged her to keep going she scratched his chin and then crawled to her feet.
"Sorry guys, i'm kinda tired...lets go find a snack."

She giggled and then went inside with them finding the bread and jam for herself and a few small pieces of meat for them. She ate a little, but not to much remembering him saying that he'd come back in and make something. She then got up and get dressed then sat back down in his rocking chair to wait for him. She didnt really feel like waiting but she had to, patience wasnt one of her favorite virtues.

Waiting for her Latro to come back her head started to hurt, like it used to when she got her memories back. It started throbbing and she stood up rubbing her temples and groaning. And then it came, her memory, of her family. Pictures of her dad in a strange outfit one that looked like the same as her brothers and her mother crying and hugging them as they left. And then images of her brother coming back looking dirty,sad and injured and her mother crying once again. Her head kept throbbing and she screamed falling to her knees covering her ears as the memory ended.

It was strange and she didnt understand. None of it made sense but all she knew was that was her family and she didnt get why her father wasnt in the second part of it. But she'd tell Latro when he got back but for the moment she waited for her head to stop throbbing.
 
He drug himself out of the water, reluctant to have to move his entire weight again, without the water's aid. He was just about completely out when he heard a scream. He ran hard to the cabin, under brush tearing at his legs as he sped along the most direct route. He leaped over logs and rock, and finally reached the cabin.

He rushed in, panting, and quickly looked around, finding Ferox on the floor holding her head, and Hymi and Isan looking at her with obvious concern, then looking up at him to fix her.

He dropped to one knee and held her, “What's wrong, what happened?” He looked for any sign of injury, but found none, and took note that she held her head....like she had before. He almost didn't want to hear, fearing that the woman who looked up at him would not be the same one he went to bed with last night.

“Ferox, love, how can I help?”
 
Ferox looked up as she heard her lover's voice and her lip quivered slightly. She was okay and her head wasnt as bad but she was still a frightened little girl.
"I'm...i'm okay just another memory. It wasnt that bad, i just dont understand."
She rubbed her forehead and hugged her still wet Latro. She didnt want to let go but she realized that she needed to explain the stupid thing to him to see if he could decipher it. It made no sense to her.

She sat up at the table and tryed to relax and looked at him thne the pups seeing them relax as she did. She felt bad for disrupting every thing and making him and the wolves so concerned when she was alright. But there wasnt anything she could do about it as much as she wanted to change.

Taking a deep breath she looked at Latro and started to explain things to him. What her father and brother were wearing and the slight difference in 'outfits' and that her mother was crying and what her brother looked like and that her father wasnt in the second part and such.
"What does it mean? Do you know? I wonder where my father went...do you think i could find him?"

She looked at him questioningly and curiously wanting answers hoping that he could give them to her. If he couldnt she'd understand but this was one she thought he might be able to get.
