Hey...work can wait till later...Besides..it won't do you no good to turn and head back..Gabe and Alana aren't that far behind us! - Whomever it was..seemed they interupted the person..while they were away. -



He's right.. - Speaking of the devil...Gabe was right behind.."someone" while walking hand in hand with Alana. - Besides...do you want to make the wife wait longer? - Well..that gave it away. -

Nenime hugged his duaghter as he led his loevly wife in:: Tinu... where is my lovely grand child?

::Audrey smirked:; shes in the kitchen with Kahn....

:;Nenime smirked and slid off towards the kitchen::


::Cerime went up stairs to find Salice...::

Shes up stairs Cerime went to get her....

::Mae smiled:: it took an army to drag my brother here

::Audrey smirked:: Devron does enjoy his work

:;Nenime smirked:; ahh there she is....

::Vantya slipped off Kahns knee and bounced to her grandfather::

::Audrey smiled to Raz and Aldaya and then to Devron::

:: Aldaya pressed inside in to the lounge.::

:;Devron just smirked softly:: it is good to be home, where is my lovely wife...?

::Audrey looked to the stairs and down came Cerime:; she wont speak to anyone..... :: she looked to Devron:; ye might want to give it a try... :: she slipped past him and then past her daughter in to the lounge to meet the guests whom had gatherd there Mai Lasgen
,Mae,Duchan a nd Samul all sat in the lounge:::

:: Aiden and Mila came in a little while later slipping through the doors::

Devron inched forward and walked up stairs::

::Audrey smield to Darkmere and Jade:: welcome to you both everyones just sort of gathering in the lounge but ye have free reign in he castle and upon the grounds....

::Aiden gave a up nod to Darkmere , Mila smiled to Jade::

::Jade slipped in to join the ladies in the lounge the gent had folde din tot he dinning hall....sitting around the table with Nenime and Duchan...::

:;Devron walked up the stairs a bit more hastly;;:

::Novella smirked and wlaked in to the lounge to join the other ladies who were all in talks of this new ally, Sira...::

::Aiden was the only man in the room for a moment before he parted with Mila to join the other guys in the dinning hall....::

:Salice had locked her self in her room with Lona.::

::Devron kncoked on the door::Salice.....

::Audrey looked up the steps then to the gents::please there are drinks in the dinning halla dn some snacks out... help your selves...

:;Vanya slid up to Jade and Jade hefted the little on in to her arms:; hello again little Vanya...

:; Vanya giggled:: Hello Miss Jade

::Mila,and Mae eyed the dark mage a moment before going back to their talk, if Novella trusted him then they all trusted him;;

- And after just under an hour, and probably causing quite a stir in the castle to the sudden apperence of a blurred pair of shadows, landing outside, he didn't head inside just yet..as he continued to gaze into her eyes -

::she gazed right back and kissed him softly::

- He kissed her back softly, as he wrapped his wings around her, hidding all of her form, minus that mess of blue hair -

;shea leane din close deeper in to those wings,she could hide her self in his wings forever:;mmmm I think were the last to arrive

Looks that way..- He chuckled softly and held her closer, holding her in his arms and wings, with one hand moving up into her hair. - Think they will notice?

::Shea shook her head:: nae I dont think so...:: she nuzzled in closer:; though I do note somethings off....

He quirked a brow to her mentionning that, before shifting her to be craddled in his arms again.. - Then we best go see what's up..- A grin before carrying her inside. -

::she smirked to him and kissed him again a bit more deeply this time as he carried her towards the doors...::

He kissed her back deeply, before carrying her inside. - We're here! - Called out to anyone within ear shot...-

::Audrey smiled to them both:: your the last to get here

::Mila smiled to Shea as she sat upon Aidens lap:;

::Willow offer the twoa little wave and Shavyn gave Shea that look ::

He nodded to Mila and Audrey, before looking to Shavyn - Everything is alright...

: - Yeah..he had a feeling what that "look" was for -

::Shavyn smield softly and agave a little ehad gesture tot he stairs up stairs Devron and Salice were having a talk, a tlak they all could hear::

:;Sheas brows perked and she slid from Victors arms and ushered everyone in tot he lounge and clsoed the doors:: I knew somehting was off...

- He quirked a brow, as he tried to listen in on the conversation between Devron and Salice...-



::Shea looked to everyon offering hugs and waves, Sira seemed to be doing well meeting everyone. Vanya was skipping about everyone as they filled the lounge and dinning hall::

- Victor then followed suit, offering hugs and waves..before a cold chill hit the castle..seems Victor and Shea werent the last to arrive...Yes people...the other prick in Greenstone was there. The one....the only..Etten. -

;Sheas brows rose at that chill::okay...? :: her brows perked to Victor then.::

::Audrey wasnt at the front doors any more two of the gurads now stood there to make sure any riff raff didnt get in, you know safety first::

Relax...- He smirked, as Etten appeared in the room, before locking eyes on Shea..-

:Vanya shivered and huddle din close between Mae and Samuel who were seate dupon the couch...::

::Shea looked to Victor:: friend of yours?

::Willow looked seeing Etten then, and had to smirk:; party crasher

Bite me..- Said towards Willow, as the chill faded...Yeah..Etten was being nice upon spotting the little one, but kept his eyes on Shea, before walking over to her...then around her..giving her the look over.. Victor shook his head slightly, before shaking his head again. -

Shea brows rose as she looked to etten whow as walking around her:: aye he must be a friend of yours ::this to Victor::

::Willow smirked:: dont tempt me

She does bite :;Shaun ahd to smirk at that comment::

::Aiden smirked:: and so does she :;meaning his mother::

Sill the talk, really it was an all out fight was going on up stairs... Lona had been taken down and rested there in Cerimes arms...::

So do I...- A smirk..as Willow had seen his "bite", before looking to Victor with a nod, before heading off to lean on the wall by the quiet Magus. -

- Victor glanced to Salice and offered a nod..as did the other allies..with Etten just looking her over, not offering a nod or any greeting. -

::Salice ndoded to Victor and her brows rose at Etten, so he was the one shed heard so much about, any way it was time for ehr to say a few words:: if I may ahve your attentions please....

::Devron didnt even move,for a few moments till he fianlly came down stairs yet he did not sit he stood in the door way....::

:;Salice cast everyone a look:: I want to thank everyone for coming, friends,family, allies... ye are all welcome to stay at the castle as long as you like....there are pnely of rooms for you all....I would also like to extend my welcome to Miss Sira.... :: salice smield to Sira:: and welcome her to our very large family'

:Kulbin smiled to salice, and Sira smiled too:; Diola Lle... :;she nodded to them all, fiends, fmaily and allies.... she had to meet and great alot of people....having Shaun by her side made it easier::


- And Magus shot Devron a "look"..getting Etten to look over and smirk, before looking back to Salice. Victor and the other chose not to say anything...as it seemed the dark lover of Novella had it under control. -

;Devron ignored that look from Magus... and just listened to his wife now::

::salice looked over everyone:: for those allies that are new welcome to all of you.... thank you for coming.... please enjoy your selves in the eleven lands as long as ye like.....

Tis an honor..to attend one of your festivals for a change..- This from Darkmere, whom got Ghallon and the rest of his family to nod in agreement. -

- Etten just shrugged to that, while Magus leaned off the wall and walked over towards Devron...and spoke low. - Suck up your pride....If you wish to do something about what I said...fine..but after this festival is over..Now..get in here...and enjoy the festival with your family...- Awww...seems Magus had a soft spot..and it was showing...a bit -

::Devron crossed slowly in tot he room giving a long look to Magus....::

Thank you Lord Alcar it is an honor to have ye and your fmaily here, as well as ye willow,Ghallon, and your family here....as always I am blessed to have my sisters ehre with those they love,my dear fmaily an honor as always.... let us eat and enjoy the fest,there will eb games and many things to do come the morrow....

- And Magus matched that look with a hard one of his own, as he moved back to Novella's side...Etten had watched the exchange, and was chuckling to himself...-

- Each one she addressed bowed their head to her, while Victor was busy with feeding Shea...Just being the loving couple the two were. Gabe and Raz followed suit with their ladies, with Ghallon looking at the four. - Hey..you three are making us old men look bad!

::Shavyn was getting fed by Kulbin and was enjoying it, and even Aiden kicked in with giving Mila bite of food from his plate::

::Willow smirked and her brows perked waiting to be fed::

- Darkmere chuckled and slugged Ghallon in the arm. - Come on old timer...we better follow suit..- Ghallon glared at Darkmere at that, before Dark started to feed Jade, with Ghallon rubbing his arm..- Kids...- Muttered before starting to feed Willow. -

willow tooka bite and smirked to Ghallon::

::Jade smirked the whole time::

::Audrey just was giggling so hard::

:: Aldaya smirked and took her own bites of food.::

::Theonly one there well besides mr. im dark etten with outa date was little Vanya...::


- True..but Etten wasn't moving from hsi wall, as Kahn fed both Vanya and Audrey. -

- Magus was actually being more..friendly now as he feed Novella, before looking over his shoulder towards Devron again, with a faint glance towards Salice..-

:Salice looked t Devron, then tot he other couples, she smiled happy that they were all happy she took bites of ehr own food abd Devron stayed where he was...::

::Vanya liked this being fed thing::

::Salice left to the throne rooclosely followed by Shavyn,Shea and Audrey.::

Seler' what is going on? :: Shavyn pressed in tot he throne room and closed the doors once Audrey crossed inside::

Tis not like you two to fight ::Audrey added::

::Salice looked to Lona sleeping in her arms:: tis not like my husband to have to be dragged home... :: Salice held back those tears:: Tis not like him to wish to be away,when his daughter is here when I am here...

::Shea looked to her sister:: I fear I have missed all too much... what is going on?

I went to Iron-winds, to find him, hes been gone for days now... not home not with me not here....I know his duty as a dark knight is very high, but even Lord Marcus Sila-Tiri- the dear duke who knows how much I need him here said that he had not assianged Devron to anything. Caleb had not even seen Devron, Caleb is his best friend and he does not know where Devron was....I stayed there in hopes that he might come back, but he didnt....he had to be dragged here, and where he was found I dont know...

::Shea crossed to her sister and wrapped her arm about her,Shavyn followed suit as did Audrey::

We are here for you seler' ::Shavyn brushed her fingers through Salices silver hair::

::Shea nodded to that:: Devron loves you he will come around

::Salice let a few tears slip down her cheeks:: I had such great news totell him I thought everything was fine, after hed been home last time after the dance in Nosgoth... everything was fine..... he was here he could help me take care of our daughter......but then he left.... with out word again

::Shay continued to slid her fingers through Salice hair::

What great news? :: Audreys hues perked to Salice as she caught one of those tears with the back of her fingers::

::Salice breathed::Lona is going to have a little brother or sister.....

::Shea smiled softly,and looked to Lona then to Salice:: Ohhh Seler'

::They hugged her there in the throne room, Shea had no idea what to say she had news as did Shay but it would wait.....::


::In the dinning hall Kulbin sat not knowing what he should do. Nenime bounced Vanya on his knee while Jade sat there next to him::

::Aldaya,Novella and Anala sat upon the couch, in the far chairs near the window sat Aiden and Mila,Shaun and Sira::

::Willow stood in the dinning hall her emerald hues cast to the doors that Devron had gone out then to Ghallon then towards her son and Sira..::

::In the throne room Salice sat:: he is hiding something from me I can feel it

::Shea breathed she knew that feeling,knew it all too well:: secrets always come out....

::Shavyn looked on:: you two should talk it out, not yell it out...



::Shea nodded softly:: there must be a good reason, we all understand duty and honor.

:Salice looked to her sisters then down to her daughter now sleeping upon the large arm chair:: duty and honor matter not in this case,if it was me in his palce I would abandon duty and honor.For my daughter

::In the lounge the others sat, talking sharing stories with the new allies, and new friends. It seemed everyone was getting along. Max,Maewen,Mae, Samuel,Aiden,Mila, Shaun and Sira all sat on the floor. They were all around the same age the youngest of the ones here. save for Vanya. Vanya sat on Jades lap happy as could be.::

::Jade braided her hair and smiled showing Darkmere::

Outside

::Devron shifted his gaze to Victor:: I don't know what to say. :;Devron sighed and sat there upon those steps that looke dout off far to the south.::

::Devron gave a long lean to the left,looking out now far past the lake.:: I love Salice... I do. But Im just not king material.I've done some things,that if she knew them, could not be forgiven. I know I should be here with my family. But then theres my oath as a dark knight. Victor, when Shea bares your child will you give up your oaths to those youve amde them too to always be at her side?

Inside




::Salice looked out the window:: I think.. :;she breathed;; I think hes been seeing someone else.

What! ::Shavyn,Shea and Audrey all said at once::

That crazy talk ::Audrey looked to Salice then to Shay and Shea:: Right?

:;Shea peered on:: hes different I agree but hes been different since the day Alaric died,I mean we all saw what happened that day. Myabe ,maybe it set him back.

::Shavyn crossed to her sister:; Salice... he loves you.

What if love isnt enough. :Salice ran her hands down her stomach:: He's missed so much all ready,and now with another on the way... I worry..

- Victor sighed to that, and placed a hand to Devron's shoulder..It was odd...one dark knight talking to another, but Victor was about to let Devron in on a little secret, as well as another. -


I already done that...when I chose to marry Shea..and will continue to do so..when she gives birth to our daughter..but..- He looked off to the distance again, as he pulled his hand back. - Shea on the other hand, will more than likely...rush back to the front lines..after she gains her strenght back..- Said in a whisper..so no one would pick that up. -


I think you are wrong Devron...just take a look at my past..Shea knows all of the things I have done..and she is still with me..and in her own way..has forgiven me..because I hid nothing from her..trust me..Salice will do the same. - A smile to Devron. - but..you can lay the things you have done by me..if it will help ease your mind.



Inside


- Max was cuddling on the floor with Maewen, as they sat with Shuan and Sira, with him givng Shuan a few pointers on how to be a blacksmith...-


- Darkmere purred back to Jade, as he held her in his arms, nuzzling noses with her. -


- Magus and Gabe, were talkng about different books and different types of magic..among other things..before both returned a smile to their lovers. -

- Ghallon smiled as he looked over to Shuan and Sira, then into Willow's eyes - That they do..a very cute couple.

- Etten then quirked a brow to Shea, seeing her eyeing him, as he done before finally speaking - Something I can help you with? - Said in a flat tone, as he looked rather bored here, as well as with what was going on. -

What have you done? - Victor's brows quirked to that, as it wasn't everyday someone said that to him...more so, someone from their family. -



- Darkmere smirked back to Jade to seeing a braided bit of his hair, before slipping off with her, for some alone time. -



- Gabe and Magus glanced to their lovers a moment, at the giggling, and shruged before going back to talking. -



Wanted to see the woman that tamed Victor. - A slight shrug from Etten, before looking around again -

- Victor blinked to that, before placing a hand to the male's shoulder - What have you done? - He could take a guess, but he'd rather hear the truth. -



- Magus and Gabe looked towards Novella and Alana, at the mention of the sun festival, before looking back to each other, knowing they would go with their loves. -


- Etten smirked to Shea batting off the idea of Victor being tamed. - Trust me...you have him tamed...but for your question..Yes..I know Victor well..and yes..we are friends..and in a sence..brothers..

Will you just tell me...or do I have to be all brotherly..and beat it out of you? - Trying to lighten the mood a bit between the two..as they were acting like that...brothers. -



Victor is tamed...He has done anything..and everything you have asked him..without question..and now..He wishes for the two of you to stay in either Nosgoth..or here..to raise your daughter..plus..He no longer goes around armed...He wants to be a father and a husband to you...not the dark knight he once was. - Said in a flat tone, yet the words still held that firm meaning...Shea had tamed Victor..-

- Victor just blinked to that a moment...letting his mind take in what he had just been told, before shaking his head slightly. - Devron...why? - True..Victor should beat the tar out of him, but he was giving Devron a small openning to explain himself. -



Ugh...You don't get it do you...He doesn't want to be a warrior any more...The moment he married you..and the moment you were with child..Victor made the choice to give up being a warrior..being a soilder..to be with you..over everyone else. - Saying it a different way to Shea..to see if she finally caught the meaning..of why Etten said, she tamed Victor -

I should punch you right now..- Victor said in a flat tone, as he eyed Devron...- but it is not my place to do so...just know that...once you tell Salice..-He then stood up - You will be hurting her..as well as your daughter..- He then turned and started to head back inside. -




He doesn't want to fight anymore.. - Seeing she just wasn't getting the point..he said it bluntly..-

- Victor glanced to Shea a moment, before looking over his shoulder. - Where's Salice? - Said softly as he guessed Devron took this chance to run, knowing once the other found out..He was as good as dead. -

- He looked to Shea and started to say something, before Aiden spoke up.- Shea..go on upstairs..I need a moment to talk with Salice please...Tis a private manner. - Said as softly to Shea as he could, before looking to Salice, then motioned to the lounge. True..it wasn't normal of him to keep things from her, but this was something he felt Salice should hear first. -

- He watched Shea slip off slowly, before turnning to follow Salice into the lounge, taking a deep breath along the way. Once he came to a stop in front of her, he smiled lightly to her. He knew this would change everything, as well as cause an uproar by her sisters...as well as the other members of the family. -



Salice...I talked with Devron..and I hate to be the one to tell you what he told me..- He started off, before looking down. - He cheated on you will he was in Iron Winds...He said he it was in the heat of the moment...as well as him saying..that in that moment..He didn't want to be a king...


- He then lifted his gaze back to her, and lifted his arms, just incase she wished to have a shoulder to cry on.. True..He was Shea's husband, but Salice would so notice that brotherly look...She had nothing to worry about in letting Victor hold her as she cried. -

- Victor didn't say anything as Salice leaned into him, and started to stroke her hair, in a comforting way...before finally speaking. - Shea and me will stay here...if you need us to...to help you out with your childern..

: As the sun light came creeping in to the room Shea turned ove rin bed,dreaming, a nice little dream as her head rested against Victors chest::mmm your so comfy :: she mummured as she batted away the sun light; tell the sun to go back down,I want to cuddle more

He had been awake for a little while, and chose not to move as Shea had been resting mostly against him than on the bed. He was smiling for two reasons, one..he was in Shea's arms..and two, the talk with Dervon went well rather badly - Thanks...and we don't have to move...unless you wish to..- Murmured softly back to her, as he stroked her hair, and chuckled to her wearing one of his shirts...that just swallowed her -

Mmm :; she cuddled closer, and gazed up to him:: all right we wont move. She was very comfy in his shirt that was like a dres supon her small frame,she ahd rolled up the sleeves but they ahd come back down to engulf her hands::

- He chuckled softly again. - Alright..- It was a comical sight, as he tried to keep his chuckles to a minimal..as he continued to stroke her hair with one hand, with the other resting on the small of her back, in a line across from her stomach -


:;her brows quirked at his chuckling:: whats so funny.. ? :: she slid ehr shirt bound ahnds up over his chest and waved the ends of his sleeves at him like a puppet.::

You..in my shirt..- He grinned brightly to that, and knew he was going to get a slap to his chest for his next comment. - plus..looks like you found something you can wear...when you get further along. - A bigger grin if possible. -


:: her brows rose even more to that:: I like your shirt its nice, and it smells like you :: her mouth hung open at his comment about futher along:: Victor! Ye act as if I am going to be in need of a shirt this large when i am round with child :: her fingers inched out of the sleeves and she flicked him on the end of his nose::

He snickered to that, before rubbing the tip of his nose. - I never said that...plus..you have been complainning about how things are fitting lately..- He then stuck his tongue out at her, but made sure to hold her closer, to keep her fro moving from him -

:;she smiled softly, and inched up closer:: aye well Salice promised tohelp me find clothes more sooted for child bearing,I may have a few things from when Aiden was but a growing babe within me. :: Shea wasnt going any where but up closer to gaze down in to his eyes::

Bah..you can just wear my shirts...they look better on you, than some child bearing clothes. - A smirk as he gazed back up into her eyes. - besides..you'd rather wear my shirts anyway

mmm :; she smiled:; well I like wearing them to bed, but i dont think i can geta way witrh wearing them all the time,maybe ,I should trya new look for bed as well...:: she smirked softly and slid up over him to lay on top looking down in to his eyes:: I think ye'd like it if I wore anything,or better yet nothing at all

- He smirked more to that. - I think you could get away with it...like anyone would say a word to ye..my lovely little imp. - A light smack to her rear as she moved over him -

she smirked looking down to him,she gave ehr rear a wiggle after he smacked it:: But I like to wear nothing under your shirts,itsnt that like tabboo?

Really? - He quirked a brow to that, and playfully started to move his hands up the back of her shirt, to see if she was telling the truth. -

:;Oh she was telling the truth,she shivered softly to his touch,and leaned down closer: yes really ,:; she kissed the tip of his nose::

I see..- He smirked to that and kissed her nose back, then grinned at her. - I still owe you a birthday spanking...

Going to give me a 146 spankings, my little rear will be red as an apple..:; she pounted softly and ran her sleeve covered hands along his arms and shoulders::

- He smirked to that, and lifted the back of her shirt up to expose her cute little peach shaped rear, and gave it a little rub..to make her think he was actually going to spank her. -

;she pouted down at him as she felt his ahnd rub at her rear:: you wouldnt...

And he gave her rear a few smacks, as he grinned innocently at her -

::she pouted more as she gazed down at him:; Victor! :; she wiggled softly as if she might escape from him::

He chuckled softly, and wrapped one arm a little tigher around ehr, before really starting to smack her rear, just hard enough to get a " pop " with his cupped hand -

She whimpered and pouted:: Victor! :;s he wiggled more against him::

- He grinned and continued to spank her liitle rear, trying not to chuckle at her squirming -

: :; she growled softly at him, playfully and nipped down at his nose, as she wiggled:: I'm going to get you :: she slid her hand down his arm and gave hima pulse of magic, hed feel a soft spank on his rear,magic does wodnerful things doesnt it::

He smirked to that - Hey now..I'm not hitting you that hard. - A pout to her using her magic, and started to use his own..just to making it feel like her was using both hand to spank her

:;she looked at him wide eyed:: Hey! :: she wiggled in his arms,and pusled him again this time letting it linger::

- He smirked and done the same right back to her, as he was enjoying this, and letting her know it as his wings wrapped around her, now using both hand as well as his magic -

: ::she smriekd to him:: your enjoying this far too much:; she lifted her hands and graced his wings with a drawn finger::


True..and so are you. - He smirked at her, as he wiggled his brows. -

::she smriekd to him;:: aye I am. :; she slid her hand over his wings:: Mmm , I plan to keep ye here all day :; shea smirked she wished she could, there were a few things to tend to through.. before they coule head to another festival,oh yes she had forgotten to mention it::

- He smirked to that - Oh really? - He wasn't complainning, but he didn't think she would keep him all locked up -

:: she smiled:;mmm I wish i could ::she leaned down closer and kissed him softly:: but Adamina is hungry and we have a few things to do today, theres another fest we could attend if ye wanted to

- He kissed her back softly - I see..then go feed our daughter..and yourself..- His brows quirked to the mention of the other festival. - Oh?

Aye, the Sun festival at the high council chambers its for those of the elder classes, and thsoe touched by the light of the seldarine. Shay may go, many friends will be there,the council, the mages of golden vine, my grandmother... a few others


I see..- He nodded to that, before getting that thinking face he usually teased her with. -

:;her brows rose:; we dont have to go, if ye dont wish to :; she kissed his cheek and slid up slowly:; but I can smell breakfast,means Kulbin is cooking :; a smirk she knew the smells of food well,everyone ahd a different flare, and since shay,salice and ehr self didnt cook with out usuing magic she could tell the difference::

Alright...we can go..- He grinned and smakced her rear again. - But first things first..we need to feed you..

:;she nodded:: mmm hmmm :;she nipped at his lips before she shifted off him and rose to her feet:; we should have room service for breakfast in this darned castle

- He chuckled to that, and roled onto his side once she moved from the bed. - True...but you need the exercise..

::Her motuh hung open:: I do? :: she lifted that shirt up her stomach was stillr ather flat, shea was always in good shape:: I do not!

He snickered to that, and moved to sit up on the bed, with the sheet drapped over his lap. - Do too.. - Totally joking with her as he poked at her flat tummy -


::shea pouted and flashed her bare thigh at him again and spun around in that shirt:: do not! :: she snickered and her nsoe lifted tot he scent of breakfast thena little knock would come at their door and a little voice heard:: Auntie Shea....! Breakfast time...

He chuckled to that, and smacked at her bare thigh - Do too..- He then looked to the door, and chuckled - Seems it's time for us to head downstairs.


:;s he wiggled her rear at him and bounded for the door:; I'll beat you down there. :; She opened the door and Vanya stood there smiling:; Auntie shea look funny

- He chuckled to that, then laughed to hearing Vanya, before moving to get dressed, and moved to the door -

::Shea giggled and lifted Vanya up in to her arms:: I do? :; she was still wearing Victors shirt.:: Well one day, when your older...:: shea carried Vanya down the hall talking to her on the way down to breakfast::

:: Salice had come back with her sisters after the food fight and after all was well with everything, Shavyn and Shea had that look, before they would head off with Kulbin and Victor they ahd another festival to attend but both had vowed to be back. The castle seemed rather empty now as guests had left, some going home some going to the other festival, some just slept in like Audrey and Vanya. Salice sat in the garden now,her daughter asleep in the down stairs nursary, with in elven ear shot::

- And in that garden with her..was none other that that snide mage himself, Etten. He glanced to her, before looking back out over the garden -

::Blue hues noted Etten,her silver brows rose befroe she looked back tot he fish in the fountain, where she sat, she took a breath,she had been ruleing this country from the day on the peek,from the moment her brother died,but long before that she had led the amries and people to victory and peace,now a deep saddness welled with in her, of the news of her husbands deep betrayal.. She ahd not gone after him, and neither had her sisters, not as of yet.Soon word would reach everyone, every family member.::


You want someone to string him up? - A dark smirk crossed his lips...unknown to Salice and Victor..He overheard what had happened. -

Pardon? :: her brows rose more and her ears perekd backs ending silver locks over her face, he knew all ready she figured that much:; Nae... no one has to string him up..

I didn't ask if anyone has....I asked if you want someone to..- A slight glance towards her..as if letting her know..all she had to do was say "Go"..and Etten would make Devron suffer,. -

; Salice glanced to him:; Nae :; she might want someone too, but she wanted first wack at him, but she couldnt have that, so she'd let Shea and Shavyn or Nenime hunt him down... she didnt want him to suffer, just feel the pain she felt::

Fine...be a spoil sport..- He pouted at her, seems he so wanted to hunt Dervon down...it also let Salice see a small glimpse as to why Victor trusted this dark evil mage so much.. Dispite being evil...there was a strong sense of loyalty there. -

; Blue hues deepened for a moment in that blue color, before she looked back down to the water:; I am not a spoil sport. Ye like to make people suffer, I ams ure ye had a grand ol time making Hinn suffer, though I may hate him and may want him stung up I do not want to see my husband as a pile of body parts or ash... but thank ye


I never said I'd go that far..- He smirked and finally turned to face her. - Besides...I'm the last guy anyone would want to see you around...I might corrupt you...- Said softly, with a hint of a mock in there...as if saying Salice was to good of a girl to mess with the dark mage -


I am not easy to corrupt, Master Etten :; salice knew a few dark types, many in her day, Etten was dark but shed known darker...to name a few Keir and Alaric:

Maybe...but still..think about it...good girl Salice...with the dark, evil mage...Etten...it would be so wrong..- Oh he was just pushing -

::her brows perked softly:; There is nothing wrong with me talking to you Etten, no matter how dark ye are, I have known worse.

- He smirked - Did I say talking?

; she sifted her silver locks back behind her elven ears and those now darker toned blue eyes shifted to him:; Nae ye did not, but tis all that we shall do :: she rose to her feet slowly::

I will rethink nothing...because you are running away..- Oh he just had to point that out to her. - But I'll stop there...you suffered enough for one night...but the offer still stands.

am not running away, ye will find Master Etten that few things make a greenstone woman run from any challange. But I am a married, and with child and have a child all ready, and my husband may be pond scum now, but divorce is not practiced here... so while your offer may be tempting... ::she gazed back at him:: I will decline...

Tis fine with me..- He looked away from her. - Besides...you couldn't handle me...

- he looked over his shoulder to her - Not praticed? Sad...then you sign yourself up with knowing your husband..doesn't wish to be with you..or honor you..- Ouch..-



Devron ... will not be seen in this castle agin,I assure ye of that, he may be the father of my children, but if I see him, I will kill him my self. So I have singed up for nothing save for rasising my children.... He choose not to be with me,he choose to go and be with someone else, tis not my fault.. :: she gazed back at him, ohh if looks could kill::

Yet I am offering you a dare..but you won't bite...- A cold glance over his suffer.. You want to make him suffer...then come here..

;Blue hues gazed to him, tempted for a moment,but she did nothing save for gaze at him::

See...to scared...- JUst to taunt her. -

I am not scared of ye,Etten. But I am not the tpe to act on temptaion...:: she pulled the door open:; I must tend to my daughter, tending to my former husband will come in time


Sure...you are scared and don't want to admit it...- He smirked and looked back over the garden .-

She let the door close and stepped back towards him:; I fear nothing , master Etten, nothing at all, not ye or the deths of hell fire, for I have faced them all :; Blue hues grew fiece, Salice was so the wrong sister to push buttons with ::

- And he turned just as she stepped up and finsihed, before grabbing her roughly by the shoulders....then laid one hell of a kiss on her lips...She had gotten herself, baited into this..-



::She had been 'baited' in to that kiss, one hell of a kiss at that,for a moment he might feel ehr return it before she pulled her self away, she wasnt going to smack him but she thought it, her blue hues turned the color of ice- that white with a hues of light blue ,soo not the sister to push buttons with,they all had their strengths sure Shay and Shea had been tamed by Kulbin and Victor,but Salice even though shed been married to Devron had never been tamed even alittle bit, no one pushed those buttons perhaps she had enjoyed that kiss::

- And guess whom she would find, rocking Lona in his arms....Don't blink..it was Etten! -


;her brows rose as she saw him, there rocking her daughter:: ye dont seem the type to rock a child in your arms :; she had blinked afew times, he moved fast didnt he::

She was crying..- A glance to her with a smirk, as he was feeding her as well, with a baby bottle

; her brows rose more, seeing him feeding her with that bottle, Lona wasnt very fond of the bottle though Salice had been trying to get her to be:, the little dark haired little girl was a beauty, witht he dark hair that was black as devrons was and those ice blue toned eyes, her features very salice,smooth round,lovely, she was calm and drinking from the bottle her icy blue gaze rested upon Etten.Salice just leaned in the door way::

- And Etten looked back down to Lona, still holding that usual cold expressionless face, yet mayve the child senced that Etten was there for her.. -

Lona just blinked up at him, and Salice moved slowly to let her fingers grace her daughters cheek:: ye are very... strange... Etten :: Salice gazed to him:: unlike any dark mage or any one that has ever graced these halls


- He smirked to that, before softly handing Lona over to Salice. - Hey...don't say that..people might think I'm a nice dark mage..- A sly cocky smirk to Salice -

Theres no one here, no one with in ear shot :: she gazed to him as her daugheter gazed back to her and smiled softly,seems the little one had her fill:; ye dont seem so bad to me, seeing as the few dark mages i have known always tried to kill me and mine... :: she lifted Lona up from him and held her in her arms::


I heard about them..- A faint shrug as he leaned back against a nearby table -

Hearing about them is nothing like living through them :; she placed Lona down int he craddle and smiled , Lona giggled softly as Salice made faces at her and made little snow flakes dance there above her daughters head out of reach glittering and wodnerful::

Trust me..- He smirked - I already know what they done...I have done the same...- A shrug...Sure she probably heard about this...then again..Would she shun him...or think of the possiblilites of having someone ike this on her side -


I doubt very much that you have,though I am sure youve killed your share of inncoent people,ye have nto tried to kill me or mine,or done any wrong here,yeve done more good by killing Hinn... :; she didnt shun thsoe of darker nature, everyone ahd a darker side,some of ehr own family had it, she had it,she just chose t walk the light path::

Believe what you want..good girll..- Yup..he called her a good little girlie again -

I am that, tis nothing wrong with being good. :: She looked back down at Lona, seeing her sleeping once more those snow flakes faded and she turned:: most here you will find wlak on the lighter side of things, some walk inbteween, and some wlak a darker path,all are welcome as long as they dont cause trouble...::she shifted her hands through her silver hair,the days had been taxing, she needed a bit of rest::

Meh...no fun in not causing trouble..- Yup..mocking her again, as if daring her to give him a reason to start trouble..as he did coax her into kissing him. -

Her brows rose a bit:: some trouble is fine, but casue the wrong trouble here, and ye will find out why I am queen...and what lengths I will go to to keep this country its people and my family safe ...:;her hues flared that icy blue at him:;


Oh really? - He looked over at her slowly, and started to lift his hand, aimming it towards her.- Prove it...- Was he daring her to attack..or be a bad girl and slip up against him...and how him she'd do anything -

:She was unarmed as far as wepaons went, ahving no need for her sword as of late,but she did have her magic, her hues reste dupon him:: how would ye like me to prove that,I am not going to challage ye,I have my child to think of.

Scared? - Oh he smirked more as a bit of dark magic danced around his hand -

Nae,I am not. But I will not risk my child. :: she took in that dark magic:

And you said you'd do anything...

: ::she faced him fully then, and ice bound magics danced through her finger tips:: aye I will do anything...::ohh hed pushed too many buttons now, looks like she wasnt backing down any longer::

- And those dark magics shot out, to wrap around her form...yet didnt hurt her..as they seeped into her...as if to easy her fully..Could it be..that Etten was trying to relax her? -


;she shivered softly to feeling those dark magic wrap around her, it didnt hurt, it felt relaxing, her eyes closed for a moment... those ice bound magics only sent achill down his back::


- He grinned to that, and continued those waves of magic. - See...it is good to give in

;was that what she was doing? giving in? She inched a bit closer::

Appears so...as he contiued those dark pulses -

::she leaned softly in to those dark pulses,as another wave of cold went down his spine,her eyes were closed,for a moment she wanted to just give in::

- And after a few more moments, they stopped -

:;her eyes opened and she blinked a bit,she stepped back from him and shifted her hands through her hair:

- He smirked to that. - Let me know when the deed is done..- HI seyes flashed at her, before leaning off the table, and started to leave the room -

:she looked to him, for a moment wondering what deed he meant but then she knew, and just nodded and didnt speak, she slowly backed in to that hair and sat for a moment..::

- Yes..the divorce...Would Salice go through with it..like Etten had suggested...or continue to remained married to someone that cheated on her...and had said..to one person..and ran...not wanting to be the king by her side.

::she would go through with it,it would take time, and shed have to go speak to her uncle as soon as possible, if Alcander was still alive hed kill Devron him self, but Alcander was not alive, yet facing Nenime would be no grand thing either...::


Yet as soon as Etten left the room...she'd sence his mood changed..from the prick he had been around her..to that asshole she was told about...but Victor told her about what he was like..." If someone messes with a friend of his...what out. " Seems Etten was going to go find Dervon...and "talk" with him -

::Iron-Winds would be a good place to start. Shea and Shavyn had been held back from hunting Devron down, as had Audrey, but now in Iron-Winds Caleb Evermore Devrons best friend sat on his front porch shaking his ehad to the news,news travled quickly here, before long everyone would know, the duke of Iron-Winds knew most everyone ehre knew now,Caleb was sure Nenime knew,he did not envy his friend, his very stupid friend..::

::Devron wasnt in Iron-winds, but someone was, the two good no good trollip,yet no one knew who she was.::

::Devron was hidding in the oddest of places,a place that ahd once filled his friends and fmaily with fear and dread, a place he knew no one would look for him::

Caleb Evermores head lifted hearing Etten, the city guard and knights whom were once Devrons friends looked to him. Caleb rose and walked to Etten:: hes not here... but I may have an idea of where he is...

::Nenimes head guards were walking through the twon sweeping looking for Devron..Nenime was not happy, he him self was just outside the city gates, hed questioned everyone so far,save for Caleb, and he was about to do just that... ::

:;Calebs eyes shifted to Etten:: you burn this town down you'll tick Salice off...,and right now no one wnats that,try the Black Thorne woods... :: his head chanted to the southwest off past Althea those huge darkly toned woods ahd once been the bain of everyones life, there stood still Alarics tower the top in plain sight::

::Caleb looke don as Etten headed out, aye hed saved his people, and aided salice, but he may have just sent his best buddie to die by Ettens hand.::

::Nenimes brows rose to Etten, Nenime had ehard of him, and now walked on in to Iron-wind to see what Caleb ahd told the dark mage::


::Caleb knew his friend well, in Alarics tower Devron sat, his hands shifted through his hair, his sword lay upon the ground before him.. :: I have become like you father...once a good and noble man now a shame, I ahve hurt the one person who was always loyal to me, who risked her life and her familys life to save my hide from your grasp...I am not worthy of being a dark knight, nor a king nor anything at all

::Devrons eyes rose to see Etten there:; You, what the hell do you want? And what your here to make me suffer? :; He rose to his feet:: come on your own accord Etten? Or did my wife send you to find me? Theres nothing you can do to me that would make me suffer,I have done it all my self... now leave me alone...

::Devron blikned and his mouth hung open:;what, shes with child again.....Divorce isnt pratcied in the elven lands. She can not deny me rights to my daughter or my unborn son,she may be queen but she doesnt have the right,I am those childrens father,no other man could take my place :: he was an outcast,and he didnt want to be king, but he wasnt giving up his children:: What man would be a father to two children that are not his own?

:;Devron watched the dark mage flicker off, and sat abck down int o the dark room, and hung his head softly...he would suffer, he knew all ready that his death warrent was signed, he had to get out of these lands, the divore would go through he knew that... and the moment it did someone would hunt him down, but where to go...?::
