Kallie grabbed his hand and was pulled up into the saddle in front of him, "Oh Lord..." she said quietly as she felt the muscular horse under her, she became slightly nervous. Grabbing some of his mane in her own hands. When Zane's hand's reached around her waist, she could feel herself relaxing, feeling safe in them. She scowled at herself, she knew she wasn't suppose to feel this way about hi,, but she couldn't help it. She couldn't hold back the small laugh, "He isn't and never will be my Fiancee," she quickly answered him seeing Vlad's face she stiffened slightly and sent him a small smile and mouthed later so he wouldn't get angry. She grabbed Arion's mane more tightly when they moved forward. Kallie heard the women clapping and she let out a light laugh. She would've waved but she was too afraid of falling.

"Relax, relax. He's the safest horse you could ever ride on, ok?" Zane tried to sooth her gently, his lips inches from her ear. "He's the horse that carried me through the battles...." His voice trailed off, and he stiffened slightly. "Ok, hold on." On cue, the horse broke into a smooth canter, his hooves pounding on the ground in gently rythem, his back rocking slightly. Zane was used to riding, so it was easy for him, and his arms tightened around her so she would feel secure, knowing that he wouldn't let her fall.

At his words Kallie relaxed into the saddle, leaning against Zane slightly. She held back a small shudder as his lips almost touched her ear, moving some of her golden locks. Once he just said the word Battle, Kallie frowned, she didn't think she ever wanted to hear about his experiences in the battles. As Arion moved into a canter, Kallie clenched her eyes shut, feeling Zane's arms around her she'd never felt so safe. She opened them and found that she was starting to enjoy herself, she let out small laugh as they cantered over a wide open area of land.

by Spritz Sat Nov 05, 2011 8:03 pm

Zane felt a small smile tweak his lips as Kallie laughed. He hadn't heard that sound for so, so long, and it hadn't changed at all, still the same laugh he had heard every day since he was a child. The steady canter soon gave way into loping walk as Arion slowed, stopping quietly at a patch of grass not too far from the pond. Zane slipped over the horses back and landed lightly on the ground, before grasping Kallie around the waist and gently lowering her to the ground. Her dress was gorgeous on her, yes, and Zane felt a small flush rise to his cheeks as he looked at her, before turning away.

by Daydreamer Sat Nov 05, 2011 8:08 pm

Kallie lightened her tight grip on his mane and closed her eyes letting the wind whip against her face. It felt so good, so free. When they came to the stop she opened them and watched Zane get off, she felt his hands at her waist again. She knew that she had already stepped into dangerous territory with Zane, he was going to leave again. She would be heart - broken all over again. Just the thought made he frown, but she hid it well. Lightly stepping onto the ground she looked up at Zane and saw that he had turned his gaze away from her. "Thank you" she said quickly patting Arion on the neck.

by Spritz Sat Nov 05, 2011 8:14 pm

"It's the least I can do for a lady..." Zane trailed off, and looked back at Kallie's face. "I have to leave today... And I wanted some place to say goodbye." The trees rustled overhead, and a few magnolia petals drifted downwards, a few settling in Kallie's hair and making her look like an angel. His heart gave a pang of longing, and he looked away, silence filling his ears. "I'm sorry for leaving before. And I'm sorry I have to leave again." He said solomly, before getting down on his knees, and taking both of her soft hands in his. He gazed at her longingly, before kissing her hand softly.
"Remember this as a token before I go. For I dont know if I'll be coming back this time."

by Daydreamer Sat Nov 05, 2011 8:21 pm

Kallie swallowed when she heard him say the words "Im Leaving" again. She lost herself in his eyes, her heart felt like it was ripping out of its chest. She wanted to go with him, but that would be impossible, she'd be killed. But who know's the warrior's that Zane had been warning about might come anyways. She didn't care anymore, she just didn't want him to leave again. She watched him get down on his knee's and she chocked back a small cry. She could feel, wetness in her eyes. She threw herself into him, putting her arms around his neck and putting her head into his chest refusing to cry. "Promise me you'll come back" she said quietly.

Vlad had been sitting at the pond, waiting for Kallie to return, he heard hoofbeats and he looked up. Through the tree's he saw them, he kept quiet. Keeping invisible through the tree's watching them. The moment he saw Zane get down onto his knee's he could feel the blood rushing in his face. He gritted his teeth together watching Kallie in his arms. It just wasn't right, how could she? He had left her. He knew what he had to do now, but just waited for Kallie to walk towards the pond, knowing she'd come this way anyways.

by Spritz Sat Nov 05, 2011 8:26 pm

Zane was caught off guard as she threw herself into his arms, and a glance at her face told him that she was barley holding back tears. She pushed her head against his chest, and Zane slowly wrapped his arms around her, murmuring something about always being there despite what happens. As she asked, pleaded for him to promise he would come back, he swallowed once, but didn't answer. Seconds slowly ticked by, but Zane knew he couldn't promise anything. If he did, it might just be broken. And he didn't make promises he couldn't keep. He buried his face in her hair, and breathed in the light, flowery scent that she had always carried. Closing his pained eyes, he silently pleaded to the gods to spare him one last time in the battle.

by Daydreamer Sat Nov 05, 2011 8:31 pm

Kallie pressed herself to his chest, a few tears falling out of her eyes. The silence killed her, she waited him to say something, anything that he would come back. She didn't want to hear him saying that he would always be with her even if he never came back. She knew she'd never stop waiting for him. She gave him one last gentle squeeze before pulling back, staring into his eyes, her own now wet with tears she didn't try to hold back.

by Spritz Sat Nov 05, 2011 8:36 pm

"Easy there." Zane raised a hand, wiping the tears off of her face gently, all the while looking into her eyes. He felt his own eyes welling up in tears, and as he blinked to hold them back, one slipped down his cheek, and he wiped it away quickly, as it ran over his scar. "Everything will be ok." There was no way he could get her hopes up about him returning, and didn't mention it. He stood, and pulled her also to her feet, his arms gently encircling her waist.
"You had better go... Vlad is probably waiting anxiously for you to meet him." He whispered quietly, lips inches from her ear, his breath warm on her neck.

by Daydreamer Sat Nov 05, 2011 8:41 pm

Kallie couldn't stop the tears, she couldn't believe she'd have to go through another time of waiting for him to come back, until she lost all hope. She knew this time she would never loose hope. She shook her head when he said that, knowing he didn't really believe he'd come back. She let him pull her up, still she pressed herself to his chest. "I don't care" she said sounding like the old young Kallie when Anna had been calling her too come inside. She turned her head slightly and looked at his lips before standing on her toes, reaching up to gently kiss him, she lowered herself back down and took a step away from him.

by Spritz Sat Nov 05, 2011 8:47 pm

Zane felt terrible, all the way down to his very heart, his soul. He hated seeing her tears, hated seeing he weep because of him, who was causing her pain, and shook his head, looking at her gently with a worried, pained expression. "It's alright." He soothed, wiping away her tears as they spilled down her cheeks. She pressed her face agaisnt his muscular bare chest, near his heart, and he felt and heart his heartbeat in his ears as it sped up, increased by the feeling of her arms wrapped around his. Suddenly, she stood on tiptoe, and pressed her lips tenderly against his, before quickly pulling away and stepping back, looking slightly embarrased.

by Daydreamer Sat Nov 05, 2011 8:49 pm

Kallie sniffled quietly lowering her gaze. "Goodbye Zane" she said, her voice shook as she waited for him to leave. She couldn't bear watching him leave, but she straightened up and tried to put a small smile on her face. "Come back, for me" she said quickly as she took another step back giving him room to mount Arion.

(kk ya kno do u wanna forget the faerie thing cuz it just might make it a lil harder)

by Spritz Sat Nov 05, 2011 8:52 pm

Stepping forward, he gently placed his hands on her shoulders, leaning down and kissing her softly, his lips tingling with the feeling. Giving her a slight nod and a smile, he brushed the hair from her eyes. "I'm staying until tonight. But with Vlad, I think you might just have your hands full." He gently smiled at her, before gesturing to Arion. "You need a ride? Or is this where you're meeting him."

by Daydreamer Sat Nov 05, 2011 9:05 pm

Kallie closed her eyes, letting herself sink into the kiss. Much to soon, it was over. She could almost roll her eyes, but she just didn't want to in this situation. She nodded her head, "yes...this is were i'm meeting him, thank you" she said quickly. Then watched him leave, she blew out a breath knowing that tonight would be their last time together.

Vlad glared at Zane angrily. How Dare he touch Kalledia, his future wife. He wouldn't allow it, he also wouldn't allow Kalledia to allow such things. He could feel the anger getting to his head.

Kallie stepped in front of the creek seeing Vlad, she put on a small smile. Hoping he didn't see the tears. Vlad didn't care though he walked right up to her, "What do you think your doing?" he said angrily in her face. Kallie knew that moment he had seen everything, it wasn't worth beating around the bush. She grabbed the necklace and broke it off handing it to him. "I am not the women for you," she answered before turning away. Vlad quickly grabbed her by the wrist's and spun her around so she was facing him pressed against him. Kallie started to struggle. "Let me go Vlad" she said although her voice shook.

Vlad gave her a smug grin, "You will be my wife, Kalledia, he won't come back for you, he'll die." Kallie looked at him angrily, "Then i'l die waiting for him" she said. Vlad threw her back, and she stumbled falling onto her back in front of him. She really began to be scared now seeing his angry face. Vlad shook his head. "Such a stupid girl.." he muttered before grabbing her hands again and crushing his lips onto hers. Kallie tried to scream against them, trying to push him off with her legs, but he was too strong. She felt his arm start to travel in places she'd never had touched by a man. She started to squirm harder, tears coming out of her eyes. She kept fighting and kicking. Vlad finally got frustrated and pulled back, stretching his hand then coming down to hit her. She gasped, stunned by the hit. The tears came more now, and she stopped strugling. "Good girl, Now I promise to be good too you, after this" he said and stroked the place where he had hit her.

(That was fun, but not at the same time....that was my first really intense scene...i like it)

by Spritz Sat Nov 05, 2011 9:17 pm

Zane watched as she slipped away, and he sighed heavily, resting his forhead against Arion's strong musular neck. The horse whickered softly, as if he understood, and as Zane pulled away, he realized he was crying, judging by the wet spot on Arion's neck, and the moist tears on his cheeks. Wiping them away with the back of his sleeve, he swallowed once, blinking to clear his vision, and was rewarded with Arion tugging on his hair. No longer in the mood to play, he shook his head at the horse, and quickly placed his hands on his withers, pushing himself up and swinging a leg over his broad back. Arion snorted softly, tossing his head, and Zane silently directed him in what direction to turn to, and the horse obediently turned, lowering his head in respect, opening his mouth, licking and chewing slightly, showing that he respected and trusted Zane. It was moments like these, where he felt a bond with the animals, and reached a hand down to stroke Arion.

His hand froze half way there as a startled cry peirced the silent air. Imedietly, Arion raised his head, his ears pricking, and turned his head around, letting out a low whinny, his forlock blowing gently over one eye. Zane whirled around, then kicked the horse into a gallop, turning him around and letting him run, run as fast as he could back to the pond. A veil of thick trees hid what was happening. Sliding off of his horse and landing on the ground in a crouch, he broke into a full out run and pushed his way through the thicket.

He burst upon a scene that made his blood boil inside his veins.
Vlad had pinned Kallie to a tree, and was touching her inapropriatly. He didn't notice that Zane was there, and soon struck down upon the woman as she protested, trying to get away from him. She let out a small, startled cry, and within a second, Zane had pushed his way to them, grabbing Vlad by the back of the neck and pulling him backwards, away from Kallie, his face hard and furious.

Placing himself in front of her, He drew back a fist and slammed it hard into Vlad's face, making him double over. "How dare you!" He raged, his eyes hard and glittering, as he commersed to start beating on Vlad. "How dare you treat her that way!"

by Daydreamer Sun Nov 06, 2011 6:21 am

Kallie let out a small sob, his hands were tight around her wrists, cutting of the blood circulation. She tried to struggle again, but Vlad got more aggressive with her the moment she did. She was starting to give up fighting against him. The next thing she knew, his weight was lifted from her. She opened her eyes and saw Zane. She could almost scream in relief, she started to pull herself up, everything hurt and she was bruised and cut from the ground. Her left eye felt swollen and puffy and she couldn't imagine how she looked right now. She put her hand over her eyes and watched Zane punch Vlad, she flinched. She didn't want to watch what Zane would do to him.

Vlad stumbled back, even more furious now that Zane was here. He swung around to try and hit him in the face. "If you had never shown up, this wouldn't of happened" he said loudly, taking another swing at him.

by Spritz Sun Nov 06, 2011 10:47 am

Used to hand to hand combat from his experience in battle, Zane saw the fury on Vlad's face and easily ducked down as Vlad swung at his face, trying to punch him. Using his own momentum, Zane spun around, delivering a harsh palm to Vlad's face, hoping it would hurt him enough to keep him down, while getting Kallie away. "All my fault, I see." Zane's voice was unusually calm despite the situation at hand, and his eyes glittered feircly, as he raised a boot, stomping it down on Vlad's fingers. Pressing all of his weight down, he narrowed his eyes, before twisting the boot painfully, leaning down and staring at Vlad angrilly, furious.
"Kallie, mount Arion."

by Daydreamer Sun Nov 06, 2011 11:03 am

Vlad dodged one swing only to get hit by the other. He hit the ground hard with a loud "Oomph". Blood was trickling from his nose and he glared up at Zane with hatred. "She could've been happy with me" he said loudly, and let out a small cry of pain when he stepped on his hand. He looked at him again. "You showing up ruined that". Kallie didn't want to hear anymore, she stumbled to her feet, her ankle protesting with pain. She ran up to Arion, jumping on swinging herself clumsily onto his back.

by Spritz Sun Nov 06, 2011 11:06 am

"It's up to her she wants to be happy with!" Zane roared angrily, his voice now more angry and vicious than it had been before. His eyes blazed with a harsh fire, and with a hard gaze, he roughly lifted his foot, shaking his head. "You're pathetic." He spit out the words like they were poison to his tounge, and turned away from the Vlad, his open shirt snapping out in the wind behind him. Striding quickly over to Arion, he swung up quickly behind Kallie, and gazed once more at Vlad.
"You're lucky I dont hurt you more. If I ever, ever see you touch Kallie again, I wont hesitate to kill you!" He slid his finger across his throat slowly, then gestured to his sharp sword. "Get the picture?"

by Daydreamer Sun Nov 06, 2011 11:15 am

Vlad gave him a look of pure hatred. Kallie watched Zane, her eyes still bright with fear from what could have happened of Zane didn't show up. Vlad stayed silent as Zane turned away from him. He started to lift himself up from the ground. Kallie blew out a small breath of relief when Zane mounted Arion. She wanted to leave this place as quickly as possible. She couldn't help but involuntarily flinch away from Zane's body. Vlad looked at Zane and was smart enough to not say anything anymore. He just nodded his head, and wiped some of the blood away.

by Spritz Sun Nov 06, 2011 11:19 am

"Good." Zane nodded curtly, his dark hair slightly blowing into his also dark eyes, that held a sea of emotions, swirling around in thier unreadable depths. "I'll see you later then." Clicking softly with his tounge, Arion stepped forward, and Zane wrapped his arms tighty around Kallie's middle. He pulled back slightly as she flinched, and soon, the horse stepped into a loping canter, soon leaving the pond far behind them, leaving Vlad standing alone.
Zane didn't want anyone seeing Kallie the way she was, and instead of heading back to the village, he headed the oposite direction, to a small trickling stream that eventually led into the pond, but the small body of water was far enough away. He slipped down off of the horses back, then gently lifted Kallie down.
"I'm so, so sorry."

by Daydreamer Sun Nov 06, 2011 11:27 am

Kallie didn't look up, she kept her eyes down staring at Arion's mane. She felt Zane pull back, and she silently thanked him for it. Her eye was still throbbing and her dress was torn in many places. She didn't want him to see her like this. After a couple of minute's she realized that they weren't going back to the village. She blew out a breath of relief...what would Anna say when she saw her like this? She'd never believe Vlad had done this too her, she more quickly blame it on Zane. They stopped next to a stream, Kallie let her hair fall over her face, and she wouldn't meet Zane's eyes. She let him help her off Arion, but she turned away towards the stream dipping her hands in and trying to take some of the dirt off her face. "There's nothing to be sorry for, Thank you for saving me" she said quietly.

by Spritz Sun Nov 06, 2011 11:31 am

Zane's strong fingers grasped his shirt's material, and he pulled out the sharp skinning knife, cutting off a strip of the material and quickly wetting it in the water, before taking Kallie by the shoulder, leaning forward and gently wiping the blood off of her cheek. He set his jaw harshly, his eyes softening as he looked at her. She looked bedraggled and hurt, unbelieving what had just happened. Rinsing off the rag, he tilted her chin up with his hand, and swallowed, looking deep into her eyes. "I'll never let him hurt you again." His strong voice quavered, before trailing off and falling silent.

by Daydreamer Sun Nov 06, 2011 11:38 am

Kallie stopped, feeling Zane's hand on her shoulder. She looked up at him, letting him press the rag to her face. It felt so cold and good against the bruise that she relaxed. She looked into his eyes at last. She didn't flinch away at his touch. She thanked the god's that he had been there to save her, but somewhere in the back of her mind she knew he wouldn't always be. At that moment she made a promise to herself that she'd learn to take care of herself once he left. "No, He won't hurt me again" she said. "Thank you Zane" she repeated the words meaning them so much.
