almost instinctivly, without hesitation horus replied to arrow, meeting his gaze for the first time scince their fight i will.
He looked up at her, but continued to talk to arrow, 'do you think she knows? he said 'i mean that i.. that i feel for her?'
"it wasnt your fault" he said out loud, a bloodstained smile stretching across his tear strewn, bloody face "i shouldnt sniff every flower i pick up" he giggled sounding as if he was bieng silly with all the tears, but it didnt change the fact that he was putting a brave face on things. He saw the faces of those people he killed every time he blinked his eyes. And he knew that they would be their to haunt him in his dreams.

Arrow touched his tender scar with a questing hand to see the breadth of it, to give some indication of how disfigured he was. He couldn't fully open his left eye and it was frustrating. He hoped that it healed sooner rather than later.
It is clear you are both in love. He sighed, recognising the stupidity that love seemed to instil in even the most sensible of fo
Airlia picked up on his action even though she didn't understand the motives, "Do not worry Arrow. It will heal eventually."
To Horus she said, "No. You will not be smelling flowers. You will rest and think... I will look after you."
Oh Airlia, considered Arrow, she hadn't admitted how she felt. He had his own mistress to consider now - what would Lilith say about his face? It was time to face the music.
"Please excuse me, I need to go rest myself." He stood, wearily as a human and turned from them without another word.

Horus stared after arrow as he left, a mixture of feelings churned within him, guilt, resentment and fear. But then he looked up at the beauty of airlia and it was replaced with the warm happy feeling of love. 'ill do my best' he said through his minds voice as he stared for a second into her eyes. "i.." he began. sounding unsure of what to say now that they where alone.
He choked as a figure appeared behind airlia, The man with the sword, his face torn and his eyes rolled back into their sockets. Horus blinked in shock and the figure was gone, Memories playing tricks on him.
"i think we should get back home" he said trying to get up but failing. He was exhausted. every movement felt draining.

Airlia looked at Arrow's retreating back, wondering what was going through his mind. Would he return as an enemy as a friend if they saw him again?
Airlia helped Horus up best she could. She wasn't that strong after all, and his heavy weight added to what was in her mind.
"Home." She agreed distantly, eyes flickering over to Horus. She had heard that Horus would do his best. At what? What would he do? Not be crazed again?
Airlia voiced her curiosity, "Do your best at what?"

Horus, shocked at the fact that airlia could hear his wolf voice, tried not to blush.
"Something arrow said," he replied, getting up and then looking at the floor rather than meet airlia's gaze. "i trust him, although he may never trust me again. He told me, that i would need to protect you.. " his gaze shifted directly into her deep purple eyes, he moved closer to her "if i am to love you"

Airlia felt herself stiffen and grow cold from the words. Love her? If he was to what? She withdrew into herself. Was love for such a creature as her even possible? She felt concern at his hurt as he was her's now and her property must be kept in a semblance of order. Yes, that was it. Devotion? Surely not to her?
She had kept pets before without feeling it, that tug. Devotion was a terrible thing for a Demon like her who relied so heavily on sexual wiles to achieve her ends. If she was tied to Horus then so much of her ability would be lost.
Airlia transformed into a butterfly in her confusion, flittering about Horus anxiously. She shifted through a number of forms, before settling finally on her normal one, quizzically studying Horus with enlarged purple eyes as if to see parts of him that were inside.
"Love." She repeated. "How can you say that?!" Her voice rose with passion kept in check before she steadied herself again, "You have no idea what I have done or who I am, my dear wolf. You barely know me..."
Airlia hardened her heart and ignored how it responded to his words. She could not allow herself such emotion, she had to keep him in check. Love would blind her.

Unphased by her reaction He spoke in a calm, but serious tone. "You are right. i know nothing of your past. I barely know what kind of person you have been. But none of that bothers me in the slightlest As i know who you are now. When all is said and done, you are the Being that took my pain from my leg without wanting any compensation in return The person that stopped me killing my friend. The person that Cried out for me to stop, Tears streaming from your eyes as you did so." He paused exhaling as he tried to calm the rising passion in his voice.
"All the things you have been,"he moved closer to her within centermetres of her face, keeping his gaze matched with hers, a relaxed and trusting expression on his face. And the same, calm, forgiving tone "all the things you have done. None of that matters to me. As i know you now."
He let his eyes linger in hers for a few long seconds before looking down and to the right "I will protect you Airlia. Not because you are my 'Master'. But because i choose to." His eyes met hers, again lingering in her gaze for a few seconds before he brought his voice down to a whisper. "Because, i love you".

"Hush now." She coaxed him into her arms, stroking his hair gently. It would not do to be caught in his rising emotion. She could get swept away with it all, and end up enamoured and unable to escape. The fear of being trapped caught her for a moment, but she mastered it and comforted Horus with her small hands.
"We will talk of this another time. You must rest."
Those eyes. His beautiful eyes had looked at her with such strength... but for now both of them had to gain strength. Airlia could sense something stirring, and the appearance of that Angel had been a beginning.
