[i]"Well Ms. Nioré, don't let his charm get the better of you. He's cute and very well end-…”[/i]

The words spoken from the dragon’s mouth seemed to fall upon deaf ears as the young angel once more turned her attention back over to where she could see Eden- it was as though someone had come along and flipped a switch in her mind… the sight of his figure moving back towards where she stood at the bar causing her lithe frame to freeze up almost completely over the spot, her soft pink lips parting ever so slightly as she allowed her eyes to follow his movements before finally, she turned herself away from him, her hands once more coming up to rest upon the bar top as the conversation held between he and Eve seemed to fall upon deaf ears, her hand once again reaching out to take a hold of the drink she had been overlooking for what now felt like a lifetime- the sound of his alluring voice directed towards her being only thing managing to pull her back out from her own little world.

[i]”Settle up everything with the barman for me won’t you Eve? But first, why don’t you introduce me to your new friend here?”[/i]

Tightening her gentle hold over the glass she held within the palm of her hand, Astrea stooped her head down ever so slightly, taking pause for a few moments as if it were going to help her sort through the thoughts and emotions clouding her mind before finally, she took her time to face him once again, her hand slowly sliding back across the bar until it was resting upon the edge as she lifted her gaze up to meet with his own; the entrancing and extremely vibrant blue eyes staring back at her causing her heart to flutter lightly within her chest, and for her train of thought to once again derail spectacularly in the space of just a few moments- the words he spoke… the tone of his voice… the way that he looked at her… it was so strange; she couldn’t help the way that her heart seemed to flutter in both an excited, though still rather nervous fashion within her chest. “I, uh…”

[i]”Eden… He could have seriously hurt you. Mind your manners Eden, this is Ms. Nioré. Be nice to her, she was going to patch you up if the dragon man beat you to a pulp.”[/i]

[i]”Oh relax, Eve, he was easy. All brawn, no brain until I broke him. I’m sure he’ll be back for this sword though and a rematch. But I wouldn’t mind taking a punch or two if it means I get to be healed by her…”[/i]

His eyes… oh by the Gods above, those eyes… those impossible, bright blue eyes; so calming and just so addicting to her- she knew if she wasn’t careful enough, she could lose herself within them completely. The very thought had her quickly tearing her gaze away from his own, instead allowing her beautiful coppery irises to come to a rest upon his muscular chest, her cheeks turning a light shade of res as she allowed them to linger there for what felt like a lifetime before finally, she slowly lifted her head back up, her eyes taking their time to follow along the strong line of his neck… his chin… his lips… before finally, she once again let the eyes that she had decided some time ago that she adored, to once more capture and hold her attention completely.

Smiling wearily as the sound of their playful bickering hit her ears, she stood herself up just that little bit taller against the bar, her body shifting slightly over the spot as she pressed her back flush against it as she let her eyes flick back and forth between both Eden and Eve, her hands both coming together in front of her stomach and her fingers playing nervously with one another as her mind once more began to wander, though his next words caused her attention to snap back up to him, her eyes widening ever so slightly as searched his own; a curious though still rather embarrassed expression crossing over her features, causing her cheeks to flush a brighter shade of red- he… he was quite straight forward; abruptly so… and while the nagging thought of the ever worsening punishment to be received from her master upon her return tugged at the back of her mind, the offer of being able to spend more time within his company was just that bit more tempting.

“..it would be an honor to be able to spend but even another moment within your company, my Lord…” Closing her eyes for only a moment as she bowed her head to him out of respect, Astrea brought her hand up to lightly brush a few stray strands of hair back behind her ear, her head lifting slowly as to allow her eyes to flick over and linger upon his lips for only a fraction of a second before finally, she brought them up to meet back with his own, lightly nodding her head in response to the thoughts he had voiced aloud only seconds before- she couldn’t deny it… there was just something about him that spoke to her… she was drawn to him…
