 Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of loveSlowly, Miron woke with a yawn, and blinked, laying next to Selene... Kinda laying... Against the wall, by the door. Slowly, he lifted Selene, careful not to shake her too much, in fear of waking her, and set her down in the bed, sitting on the corner of the bed. Sighing, he started to rub his head... The events of the day were a hassle, for sure... But... He had survived them, that was good... and even better, Selene had survived them... It was odd, when he valued the life of another over his own life... It had been a long time since he had felt that way... It didn't get him anywhere then, though... but now... Now it had gotten him somewhere... Now... He had actually been able to do something... he had saves Selene. And he would make sure that that was a trend that continued. I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above

Sheridan  Sheridan was almost finished with her small meal when she heard Athrius words and at them she blushed. She smiled slightly and looked to him, her cheeks a bright red as she responded. "Well, I think we would be happy. Father would come to care for you, seeing as how you make me happy. And I am sure after some time, we could even grace his home with...c-children." With the last word her blush brightened and she turned her head away. Having children had been a dream of hers, but she had always thought it would never happen, because she never thought she would have found someone to be with. But now that she was with Athrius, all those dreams came rushing to her, bombarding her with the hopes she had dashed so long ago.

  MinaMina's eyes slowly opened, she was still on the floor at the base of the stairs. She hadn't gone to sleep but she had been able to rest a little. She slowly tried to sit up and found she had gained at least some strength back. She was able to make it to her feet and grip the wall to keep from falling. She was hurt, yes that was the word, hurt that Meiun hadn't come to help her, but she wouldn't hold it against him. She would gather her wits and concentrate on healing herself as well as Selene. But in order to do so she would need rest and a lot of it. She closed her eyes for a second before opening them to walk up the stairs and enter her room. She closed the door behind her and fell onto her bed, all the energy she had gathered already gone because of the effort it had taken to get her up to her room. She closed her eyes and slipped into sleep, and as she slept she dreamed. She dreamed of the past, of when she was a child and how she had come to be Selene's so called sister. She had been given up by her parents, parents she hadn't known were only her adoptive parents, to the King and Queen as a gift for the birth of their daughter. She was to be that daughters friend, play mate, but most of all her protector. In her sleep she shivered and flinched occasionally as the dreams slowly grew to what she knew as her personal nightmares. She was outside playing in the garden when she heard a scream coming from Selene's room. She had rushed to try and help her, not knowing what had happened. But before she could even reach Selene's bedroom a guard roughly gathered her in his arms and hauled her to the King and Queen, informing them that she had not been watching over 5 year old Selene like she was supposed to and that Selene had been injured trying to get a book that was always kept in her room. She struggled as she was dragged away to be punished, tried begging them for forgiveness, pleading not to be beaten again. Tears slid down her cheeks and into her hair. The tears of the young Mina rolling down her cheeks to land on her now bloodstained dress. She had been beaten and whipped for not protecting the youngest daughter to the King and Queen. Her arms had been broken just as Selene had broken her's from her fall. She cried, every time Selene was hurt, and she was beaten for the pain "she" had caused their daughter. Over the years she had slowly withdrawn from the pain, allowing her mind to find protection within itself, and because of that protection she had become emotionless. She rarely showed emotion to anyone, only giving Selene small signs with a smile or a hug. But there was never any true emotion behind those show of "feelings" from her. Mina sat up, sweating and trembling. A scream had slipped from her lips just before she had woken from the nightmare of what she was envisioning would be her punishment for allowing Selene to almost die. She looked about her room, her eyes not truly seeing what was around her. She stood and walked into a corner and curled up against the wall, wrapping her arms around herself, trying to curl up in a ball to become as small a target as possible.((Draco, do you want Meiun to do what he did last time basically, feel/see her dreams?))

Selene
Selene slowly started to wake, and she rolled over, closer to Miron, mumbling his name before yawning sleepily and beginning to wake. She sat up, blinking as she looked around, wide awake suddenly. She gasped as she saw Miron at the edge of the bed and nearly knocked him off as she threw her arms around him.
"Miron!" she gasped as she clung to him.

  King Darian
Darian felt Sheridan's message, and he sent much the same back, then focused again on Sienna. It broke his heart to see her like that.
"Sienna, I will not lock you away," he said, his tone firm. He knew that she would hate him for it, but he would not, could not do it. Surely she could understand that?"Please Sienna... I can;t do it, no matter how much you beg... I will work with you, help you figure things out... I do have a blood bank, you don't have to drink my blood, or the blood of any other! I will give you access to it, just please, stop acting like you are a monster..." he pleaded, wanting just to comfort her, to hold her close again. He reached out for her, his eyes pleading as he did.

ââââââââââââââââââ Her shoulders dropped as she heard him say he would not lock her away. She knew he could be stubborn and wouldn't do it and knew that no matter what she said now he wouldn't lock her away. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath and shook her head as she let out a humorless laugh at his words of her not being a monster. "How can I not think that? All my life everyone has called me that and worse. I am a Fae, Vampire, Wolf, Demon. Something that should have never been born, something that was thrown away by its own parents. Hell they even tried to kill me, because I was such an abomination in their eyes." Sher took a few more breaths knowing that even that wouldn't change his mind so she just turned to the only other thing she could say. "It doesn't matter where the blood comes from Darian. It is the blood itself, if it is powerful blood it will bring out what attacked you. I'm scared that even if it wasn't powerful blood I would still feel the blood lust. I might look healed, but mentally I am broken as ever. That's why I beg you, please, keep me away from others, even you. I...I can't l-lose you...I-I l...l-love y-you..." As he reached for her she flinched, not willing to allow herself to get close to him again. She couldn't chance hurting him again so all she did was spoke softly to him. "P-Please, please don't get close to me. I-I can't h-hurt you again."

Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of loveMiron smiled as Selene wrapped her arms around him, almost losing balance and falling off the bed. "AH! Selene!" He laughed, spinning so that she flipped around in front of him as he laid down, laying her down on top of him. He smiled at her, giving her a gentle, yet passionate kiss. "Seems like you're in a good mood..." He joked. I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above  "Life is a waterfall, we're one in the river and one again after the falls..." Slowly, Meiun opened his eyes. It had dawned on him early on that that had not been his dream... but Mina's dream... The poor girl... she had been through so much... slowly, he stood, walking over to her room, where she slept in her bed. He sighed, sitting, and beginning to instil good dreams... She cared for Selene, obviously, so he instilled dreams of her having fun with Selene... As he did so, he slowly began to siphon little bits of energy from him to her... He didn't have much, but... He also began to analyse and heal her, just in case... Sighing, he sat there, mediating her sleep and healing her... Why did he do this? It was quite painfully obvious she hated him... She didn't want him around... why did he purposefully cause himself any more stress than necessary, any more pain The answers came to him simply, if not shockingly for one of them. For one, he wanted to help her, because she was a comrade. For another, because she was another living being... and finally, and this was what shocked him... While she seemed to hate him, he felt... he felt emotions toward her... strongly... Positive emotions...Love? Friendship? He didn't quite know... but... he did know that it was reason enough. "...Life is a waterfall, you drink from the river then you turn around and put up your walls" ((Does that answer your question?))  Never gonna save me
You just shut me out
And now it's over cause I'm stepping out, again Athrius slowly smiled, and said "It sounds like a good life..." Smiling at her, and slowly leaning his head against her, having finished his food, he said "Your father actually coming to like me, which would make our relationship much easier... and kids..." Smiling, he slowly sighed, saying "I... I would enjoy that..." He had a feeling he knew what he wanted to do... But was it too fast? He would have to ask her... "S... Sheridan... Do... Do you think... It's too fast... If... If I were to ask your father... If I could marry you? Should I wait for him... to adjust a bit? Is it too fast for you?"Never gonna break me
Just try and hold me down
I will escape you and I'll push you closer to the ground
Cause you're the one that's going down

King Darian
Darian heard her say that she loved him, and his heart swelled. But when she would not let him touch her, his hand dropped, and he turned away, his shoulders set as he tried to prevent the pain from showing on his face. Unable to do so, he finally just turned back to her, looking at her. His expression was openly pain, but soft and understanding.
"Sienna, whatever it is that you want... he finally said. His voice was broken, almost too quiet to hear. "I don't think you're a monster, and I think that if I'm gentle and can help you through it, your mind will heal too... But I will give you what you want... I do not want to hurt you... All I ask is that you please stay so that I don't worry that you are dead out there..." he added, shoving his hands in his pockets. He had wanted to reach out for her again, to hold her close, but he knew what kind of reception that that would bring. He turned away. "The room I took you to before you ran off... You may have it again..." With that, Darian started to walk away.

Selene
Selene smiled as she kissed Miron back, then nuzzled him as he spoke.
"I am happier now that nightmares don't twist my thoughts," she whispered contentedly, blissfully unaware that Miron had shared her nightmare with her. She nuzzled his neck and then kissed him again, happy to be in his arms. Her happy emotions buzzed through the bond, almost making her seem hyper.

Dress it up with the trappings of loveMiron laughed, holding her close and kissing her in return, but a stagger of pain went through the bond at the mention of nightmares. He skipped it over, though, hoping she didn't notice, and continued kissing her and holding her close, laughing with her. "I certainly am glad you're feeling better. You were in such a bad state earlier..."I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips

ââââââââââââââââââ Sienna closed her eyes at the look of pain on his face. She shook her head, about to reach out to him but stopping herself before she spoke softly. "T-Thank you D-Darian. I...I'll stay, I p-promise. I-I'm sorry for all the p-pain I have caused you, b-but I just...I can't t-trust myself." She watched him put his hands in his pockets and she tried to hold back the tears at the sight of him so hurt because of her. She closed her eyes as she felt him leave the room, slowly she too exited the room and walked to the place she had been in before she had ran. She looked about and saw a guard near the room and walked over to him. "Can you please give this message to King Darian. I would like to know if he could personally come here to take the key to this room, and can you ask him if there would be a way for me to get food since I will not be leaving this room." As the guard nodded and walked off to do what she had asked of him she slowly entered the room and looked about. She walked to the window and stood in front of it for a few seconds, allowing the sun to shine down on her before she stepped away. She walked to a table and gathered up a quill and some parchment and wrote down a small note for Darian that read,
Darian,
If there is anyway I could maybe get some books to keep me occupied while I am in here it would be greatly appreciated. I, again, am sorry for causing you so much pain and torment, but I can't risk putting you in danger. Please understand that.
Sienna
After folding the parchment up she walked to the door, that was still unlocked and slipped it underneath the frame of the door. She had written Darian's name on the parchment and hoped that no one but him would read it. After she was sure no one was going for the note she went to the chair in her room and sat down and curled into the chair.

MinaSomehow Mina had fallen asleep again in her bed after she had woken from her nightmares, but as she had fallen asleep again the nightmares had returned. Soon they turned to positive dreams, dreams of her and Selene playing together as children, or her watching over her without fear of being punished if Selene got hurt. As her body relaxed she sighed slightly and curled around the warmth that was near her. She wrapped her arms around Meiun's waist and rested her head on his leg as she dreamed. She knew that she had to wake soon, to make sure Selene was safe, and healed, but she didn't want to leave the dreams that brought her no fear. Slowly, oh so slowly, she woke, her eyes opening as she curled tighter around the form of Meiun. As her eyes opened she saw and felt the second bond thread connecting them and gasped slightly. She looked up to him and then back down to the bond thread that she could see, not visibly but by the magic that formed the thread. She blushed and moved away from him, wrapping her arms around herself as she closed her eyes and spoke softly. "I-I'm sorry, I d-didn't mean to. W-Why are you in here? I am in my room r-right?" Suddenly, with a gasp she grasped her head as all the nightmares flooded her mind and ripped another scream from her. She shook on the bed, her body trembling in fear as more and more possible punishments ran through her mind. She huddled against the wall, her eyes closed and tears slipping down her eyes as she tried to pull herself back to the protection she had built for herself. She shook her head, whimpering as she whispered to herself. "No...No, it can't be...I-It's g-gone...No..." She trembled more, knowing that when it was time to return to the palace, when the King and Queen learned about Selene being hurt she would have no way to protect herself, for her barrier, her protection was gone. ((Yes it does, but she is in a corner curled up lol, but its alright I'll work with it. I am going to assume he is sitting on the bed, if not I can edit it.))

Selene
Selene frowned as she felt the flash of pain. It had went straight to her heart, and then a strange hopefulness that she hadn't noticed followed.
"Miron, what's wrong?" she asked, trying to figure out what would cause him such pain. She looked him straight in the eyes, sitting up slightly as she did so. "Is it something that I said...?"

King Darian
Darian turned to the gaurd that had entered his room. Hearing Sienna's request, he nodded, slowly walking down the corridor towards that room. Seeing the note on the floor, he read it. Sighing, he leaned against the wall, knocked on the door to let her know it was him, and then spoke, without even opening the door.
"Sienna, I will give you whatever you need, just ask. Somehow, I can hear your needs inside of me, and from that I can give you what it is that you need. So please, don't feel the need to get a gaurd to come get me..." he said. His voice was just loud enough that she cuold hear him through the door. The tone was helpless and forlorn, as if he had finally given up convincing her that he would help in anyway that he could. "I will be back shortly with books. You can trust me to give the key to now one." He sighed and pulled himself off of the wall, looking at the door before putting a hand on the knob, then thought better of it. "Sienna... I love you..." he said softly, then walked away. He went and did everything personally, leaving the books and everything else that she had asked for just inside of the door before locking it and going in saerch of his daughter. Finally finding her, in the company of Arthurius, Darian allowed himself a small smile before he went over to her. As much as he tried, he could not school his expression into something, anything, commanding. His eyes still held that forlorn hopeless look, and his features seemed somewhat softened.
