Welcome to Gaia! ::

As was the normal behavior for Teiluj, books were strewn about the table and soft chair the monk was lounging on. Another book in her hands with a fully grown Loatoa curled up in her lap. The twins were now in their rooms for the night and Teiluj found it was the best time to study up on some of her healing skills. In order to help Lynx with his work in animal taming, Teiluj had taken up a complimentary study with animals. Giving her the ability to tend to the various creatures he trained. In turn she was able to open her own animal clinic, and with alot of hard work was able to bring in a boon of income for her family.

In her spare time she had been using it to teach the twins as much education as she could possibly get into them. Doing her best to prepare them for a bright future. Very little time had been left to spend with Lynx and in ways, she terribly missed him with their busy life. She knew better than to bother him for attention though and so when he had called for her to join him. A small unease entered her mind. "Alright," Teiluj responded. Closing the book gently and shifting the sleeping Loatoa off her lap. Hearing the creatures protests as he was disturbed.

Stretching so her back cracked in a few places, Teiluj stood up, smoothed out her hair. Pale eyes shifted in her partners direction. Taking a deep breath she moved towards the front door, crossing her arms and leaning against the door frame. Closing her eyes and relishing the soft breeze as it brushed against her skin. Cooling her from the heat of the day.

A smile played across her lips. This was a feeling she loved. Though she was apt to admit, she liked it in Matori far better than she did here in Oba. The weather was nicer, the temperature was easier to escape with the ocean water. Not that she busied herself with spending time in it. Not after the strange pollen had fallen. She had grown to love her changes. And did not want to go through another change. Or risk the potential of the changes reverting back to her old self. She was new, and she loved herself just the way she was. She loved her life, her family, and the family she had come to call her own.

"I'll never get enough of the way the wind feels after the sun sets." Teiluj mused happily.

The monk watched the mans approach her features softening further as she regarded him. Her eyes wandered up and down his frame. He was still the most attractive man she knew, no matter how much time she spent with him. He still captured every aspect of her heart. When he approached, Teiluj closed her eyes with a soft smile. Enjoying the physical contact against her skin. Chuckling at his small flattery, she opened her eyes again. "No one is ever going to be as amazing as you in my eyes."

Reaching up she brushed her hands over his. She wasn't at all surprised by the question of her day. Sucking in a deep breath of air as she contemplated the various moments of the day Teiluj chuckled again. "Come now, you've been here today. That alone makes my day wonderful. The twins are growing up quickly, I feel that we've done an amazing job in getting them started in life." Teiluj mused proud of the achievements she and Lynx should boast about together. "How was your day? Is something on your mind?"

"Oh," Teiluj's voice lowered with concern. "That can't be good. If it's troubling you, maybe I can help. Does it have something to do with the training? An animal you aren't sure you could train? Or an injury?" While Teiluj may have listed off the first possible situations off the top of her head. Her mind continued to spin with even more problems. Whatever was on his mind she was sure he would eventually tell her.

She didn't really want to pry it out of him if discretion was required, she knew sometimes some clients wanted the interactions kept private. She was happy to give the distance. Completely trusting that Lynx's loyalty was to his family in the end and that he wouldn't do anything to shake up their trust in him.

She leaned in to give him a soft quick peck on his cheek. "Not that it matters, whatever it is. I'm just here if you need me, you know that." A very coy smile played on her lips as another possibility crossed her mind. Leaning closer to his ear so only he could hear. "Unless you need a little de-stressing." Her voice low and seductive with the insinuation lingering in the air.

Closing her eyes at the feel of his rougher skin over her lip Teiluj let out a soft sigh. Partially hearing his words in her ear, her head slowly moving down just enough to kiss him on the side of his neck. Pulling back at the mention of needing to fix something.

She blinked a few times. Uncertain of just what her mate was referring to. Had a beast broken another fence? And his mind was on the cost of repairs? No, it couldn't be that, he had never shown any inclination over the cost of things before. Giving Lynx a puzzled look she thought over the years they had been together, there really wasn't anything she could think of that really needed fixing. Unless he was referring to that terrible mystic. But she was sure they were both well past that by now.

Leaning back into the door frame. Teiluj gave her man a soft look, reaching up to brush back some strands of his hair from his face. "Whatever it is my love, I'm here with you. Anything I can do to help I will."

Teiluj stood frozen in place. Her eyes widening at the question. That was certainly not something she was anticipating, the subject of marriage had only really come up one other time while their children where only toddlers playing in the sand. Not the teenage trouble they were now.

Her face didn't deny any happiness as it burned within her. Elated with the question Lynx had asked. Her heart pounded steady and fast within her chest. There had been so many scenarios in her head, none of them had Lynx proposing to her in them.

"Oh Lynx," She giggled. "You're already that man to me. You have been far longer than our twins have been alive." Her smile grew, pressing her body up against his. Her lips catching his, her arms wrapping up and around his neck. "As if you even needed to ask me."

Tilting her head back contemplatively Teiluj continued to smile. "Was this the problem that needed fixing?"

"Another problem." Teiluj's body stiffened a bit. Lynx was always full of surprises, and lately had been ones she couldn't predict. He wasn't pulling a good news to lessen the blow of bad news was he?

Raising an eyebrow at Lynx Teiluj's lips cocked to one side. "If this is about Vaehaery's rather feminine nature. I don't think it's something we really need to worry about. He is a sturdy boy, and his sister is growing into somewhat of a looker herself. She's even prettier than I am. If you can believe it."

Maybe that's where he was going with this, and another reason he may have waited till their children had retired to their own rooms for the night. She sighed listlessly. It wouldn't be much longer before they started striking out on their own. She didn't want to bear the thought of not having children around.

Immediately flustered, Teiluj bit her lower lip playfully. "Not that we haven't been trying, if I recall a special someone made the decision that waiting till these twins were well old enough to fend for themselves before adding any more to the family." She was teasing him in return. A sudden glee dancing about her frame.

He was referencing more children, and now was the perfect time for them to go about enlarging their small family. She had done well the first time around and was certain that she would be doing just as well if not better this time around. Her twins had such contrasting personalities she was eager to see what more of their children would look like.

"It's about time we start adding more to this house. Especially since it's about to get so quiet around here. I don't think I could take it if they leave so soon."
