"I''m glad." Ana said with a soft smile, hearing that Lucian wouldn't mind her playing with the pups, even though they would be in trouble for coming there in the first place. She continued to rub the little wolf's tummy, sometimes scratching him lightly behind the ears as well. As for the other one, she stopped feeding her the meat after the while, only to save herself a little as she hadn't eaten yet. She let the little hybrid stay in her lap afterwards, letting her curl up and rest her head in her lap.
As she listened to Aki, she resisted the urge to let her bubbling anger show in front of the pups as to not frighten them. Funny how he would only bring this up now. "Most creatures stay in their own territory hm? Then explain the raids on the hunters village that happen almost constantly. Explain why when I was ten, I watched my entire village murdered at the hands of these so called innocent creatures that your trying to defend." She said as calmly as humanly possible. The acid tone to her voice was clear and sharp. "And as I remember, when the hunters rescued me from the smoldering ruins of what was my home, they told there was a dragon seen flying near by." She added, making it quite clear that she blamed his kind for some of what happened to her village. "Just because Lucian's pack doesn't go out and attack humans, doesn't mean anything about all the other wolf packs, and all the other creatures that live in this forest. I don't just hunt them because they "look scary" Aki. I hunt them because they are dangerous and I've seen first hand what they can do. I'll admit that they are a few exceptions to every rule, but I know whats all those demons out there are capable of." Just when she was starting to think he was tolerable he went and said that. Anastasia was livid once again, but carefully keeping it in. Of course Aki would defend these beasts. He was one of them after all.

((YESSSS!!!! biggrin Better get some good posts in next week biggrin tehe. You know...when your not off doing vacation-y stuff.))
((P.S. Sorry it took me longer then usual to reply. Was up to my eyebrows in homework for the last week. Got it all done now though!! biggrin ))
She could see the way he was staring at her. Like it was confused, or deep in thought or..she wasn't even sure anymore. Did he suddenly feel bad for the things he had said about her, after hearing more about her lost village? Was he feeling guilt for being a part of a species that killed so many innocent. Or sad, to be a part of another species, that had suffered such pain despite being innocent of the crimes the beasts had condemmed them of. See, humans weren't the only hunters after all.
Whatever he was thinking about, she didn't want to be in the same room while he contemplated it. It made her feel...awkward. Like he was trying to pick apart her soul, piece by piece. "Perhaps you little ones better go find the rest of your pack now. Before they get worried." She said, her voice seeming cheerful enough as to try and calm the pups back down. She stood up from the fire, giving the pup in her lap plenty of time to move first so it wouldn't tumble to the ground. She didn't want to hurt them after all. She took the hybrid's hand in hers, hoping that they would understand what she was doing as she began to lead them out of the cave. But not before she was met with hostility.
Nasrin hadn't noticed the two pups missing until Lucian took the count. They were being watched, she assumed, though it seemed they were not being watched carefully enough. She growled lightly, and quickly followed behind her mate to find the missing pups. Once upon a time she had been the faster runner of the two, but now weighed down with growing pups she tailed behind.
They hadn't been running long before she sensed the pups were close by. Running through the trees, she suddenly realized they were near Aki and his mate's cave. The growl the ripped from her throat was one of pure fury. If that girl did anything to those pups...if a single hair was matted on their coats...well let's just say that Aki would be looking for a new mate before morning, or trying to put the old one back together.

Aki's warning had come to slow to Ana, as the moment she heard she found herself faced with an angry wolf pack. Without thinking about it, Ana shifted to be in front of the young pups. With danger present it was mere instinct that moved her to protect the young, even though she had the whole situation backwards. It was from her the young should be protected, or at least that's how the pack would see it. The minute her brain kicked in to tell her this, she stepped back, letting the pups go on to their pack, where they would be safe. Being faced with a dozen savage wolves, she was surprised when the alpha took on human form again, to apologize to her. Hearing the words, she quickly shook her head. "No...I should be the one apologizing. I should have had Aki bring the pups back to you. I knew your pack would worry...seeing them with me. Perhaps it was my curiosity that got the best of me...." Out numbered and unarmed, the last thing she wanted to do was anger the wolves. Even with Aki's protection...would he be fast enough to save her if the wolves decided to pounce. She doubted it. So better make peace not war. "I didn't hurt them I swear. I don't hunt the innocent. I treated them as gentle as I would my own young." Aki would be able to vouche for that. "But I should warn you. Not all hunters carry the same principles as I do. I know many hunters who see young as dangerous as the adults. Your pups wouldn't be spared among such hunters."
Nasrin was...taken off guard by Aki. Lost somewhere in the middle of rage, and pleasure from the ear scratch, she stood confused and embarrassed. She gave Aki a look that seemed to clearly state that she was not in the mood for small talk. Though at the same time, she didn't move away from the luxurious scratches either. "Why didn't you bring the pups back to us?" Nasrin asked in her wolf form. To Ana it would sound like nothing more then growls and yelps. "You should have known what we were thinking, what we thought happened to them with her here. You really want to worry a pregnant wolf that much?" She wasn't above laying on the guilt to Aki if it meant the protection of her mate's pack. That and...being with pups was so convenient some times.

Ana couldn't hold back the small smile that pulled at the corner of her lips. "I think I've taken a liking to them as well." She said. She found herself hoping, that the next time her village came hunting these wolves, that she wasn't a part of it. For the first time in her life, she didn't want to think about the death of these two young wolves. Though she knew what they would become, at the moment they were so sweet and innocent, so harmless. It was hard to believe that someday they would have the power to kill and maim all the humans they would please. How many villages would they help destroy? She shuddered at the idea of her two little pups doing such a thing but she knew someday they would. Bringing her attention back to the alpha, Anastasia nodded. "Thank you. But please...don't let your pups believe that all hunters are like me. Like I said...there are those who would still hurt them. Don't...don't let them fall prey to a hunter just because they met one who wouldn't harm them." At the mention of Aki, Ana glanced over at her "mate", conversing with the alpha's female in a language she didn't understand. "Aki...is trying I think to make me see past my views as a hunter. That or perhaps he just enjoys tormenting me. Either way I'm glad I have him. Otherwise I would have never seen some of the things that I have." Ana fell silent, suddenly wondering that didn't feel like a lie as she said it. Maybe...part of her...was actually happy that she had this temporary truce with a dragon. A dragon who could show a hunter things from the beasts point of view.
"You better have been on your guard. But really Aki. Didn't you think about her magic? I've seen hunters skilled enough to use those powers of theirs without even needing to speak the words. Some strong enough even who don't need to be in contact with their element to control it. What if she..." Nasrin trailed off, trying to stop herself form getting too worked up for the unborn pups sakes. But the fear of the girls powers was still there, not knowing how well trained she was. Nasrin nuzzled her head into Aki's hand gently. She was silent for a few moments, mostly just to enjoy the scratches while not getting all worked up over something that never happened. The pups were fine, and seemed to be quite happy with the girl. Not too far off she could hear Lucian speaking to the hunter. He didn't seem to see the danger in her for the time being. "How was she with the pups?" Nasrin asked suddenly, raising her head to look up at Aki.

Lucian listened to Ana, he could feel his mates anxiety which was driving him slightly crazy. He wanted to run to her, gather her in his arms and run off with her. His love for his mate and her well being was a little over the top, but he couldn't help it. He was in love with her since they were pups. Sadly, they were just like the two pups that were currently in trouble. Lucian and Nasrin had many adventures together and always loved to discover things. Then he had to get serous... and that was when he decided to take over the pack. Only he and his former best friend knew the real reason why he took over the pack... and that reason was Nasrin. This secret he never told her...the reason why he chose her.
Snapping back to reality, Lucian replied to Ana, “I will make sure they understand that you were an exception of the Hunters.” He remained calm with Ana, which was a feat it self. He trust for Hunters was obsolete... or rather he had no trust for Hunters. “Aki has a way to... how should I put this... make people do things. He will show them the... fun side of... things.” He didn't know what exactly he should say about the Prince.
Aki smiled at how worried Nasrin was. Shifting to where he was sitting down, he continued to give her a ear rub. “She was great with them...they loved her,” he said truthfully. There was no need to lie... Nasrin would be able to tell. “She loved them... or so it seems,” he said with a chuckle. Aki enjoyed watching the pups flip over and play with Ana. He also enjoyed the look on her face as she counteracted with them. Aki glanced over at the other wolves that were backing into the forest around them. Some of them leaving but a few staying just in case help was needed. He glanced back at Nasrin and began to tease her, “You know if you wanted a real man you could have came to me.”

Ana nodded, not being able to disagree. "I doubt any other dragon would be able to convince me not to kill them. But somehow Aki managed. That's...actually how I met him. I was hunting him." Ana almost laughed saying this. It was hard to believe that only a few hours ago she was attempting to end Aki's life. And now...now she was practically depending on him to save her's. Without him the wolves would had killed her on sight she knew it. It was a curious thing to wonder how she might react when she found out that Aki had been lying to her all along, about being a half blood, about telling the wolves they were to act as mates. After all he had done for her, no one would be able to predict her reaction. "Well...thank you for understanding. I would say that the pups are free to come back if they ever want to but...I have a feeling it would be for the best that they spent as little time with me as possible." She said a little sadly. It wouldn't be fair to the pups to learn to trust her, she knew this. Especially if she were ever to hunt them. She bowed her head slightly to the alpha, before moving away from him and heading back towards the cave. She had wanted to move towards Aki, but as he was with the pregnant mate to the alpha, she felt like it was better she kept her distance.
Nasrin tilted her head slightly, unable to believe what he was saying, and she didn't didn't detect any false tone in his voice. "Really? A hunter who loves wolf pups. Who would have ever thought. But then again, we should have guessed she was a little different, following you around." Nasrin glanced over at the girl who she saw now walking back into the cave. It gave her a bit of a sigh of relief, but worried her a the same time. At a distance from the rest of the pack she didn't seem like as much of a threat to the wellbeing of her mate. And yet, out of site from the others who knew what she might be doing. "Aki...what does the girl know about you exactly? You didn't tell her you were the prince did you? Or is there some actual truth behind this mate ruse and you trust her enough to let her know she's among dragon royalty?" Nasrin asked. Hearing Aki's last comment, she laughed, somewhat halfheartedly. As a wolf it came out sounding something akin to the yelps of a hyena. "Oh Aki. You know I could never leave a king for a prince. And sadly, I've taken quite a liking to my mate." She replied in an equaly teasing tone. "And besides. That human is more then enough for you to handle."

Nasrin seemed a little more at ease once the girl was gone. Though she didn't like that they couldn't see what she was up to now. "Aki my dear, with your lifespan, by the time you decide to take the throne I'll be nothing but bones. And even so, the pups might begin to wonder why their daddy is a dragon, when they have no wings or scales for themselves." She answered teasingly. Aki was such an old friend to both of them that she didn't see this as flirting at all. Just good fun. When Lucian approached, Nasrin turned to her mate and nuzzled her head into his neck, "I think our Aki wants to steal me away from you. What do you say to that my love?" She asked, grinning mischievously as she nipped Lucian's ear. All the while, it seemed even the pups were joining in on her playfulness, as she felt their strong kicks against the walls of her womb. "I think the pups want to defend their father. Their getting awfully feisty." Nasrin whispered softly.
When Ana was back inside the cave, she tucked herself into one of the far corners, where the wolves wouldn't be able to see her. She did this simply because she knew some of the wolves would (even if the alpha hadn't seen any harm in her) would be still feeling hostile over what happened with the two pups. So, perhaps if they couldn't see her they would put it out of their mind. Still sitting relatively close to the fire, Ana pulled the remains of her supper toward her, and slowly began to eat as she crushed a few herbs in a tree bark bowl. She was working on making the salve she told Aki about, so that she would be able to treat his wound when he came back into the cave. Hearing footsteps, Ana looked up to see Aki coming in. "That went...better then expected. I thought for sure they were going to attack when they saw me with the pups. Thanks for...trying to warn me." Ana commented as he came in. She was nibbling on a dandelion as she ground the healing herbs for Aki into a paste. "I have this salve almost done...if you wanted me to treat that wound of yours." She said while looking up at him to see what his answer might be.
((lol, well I hope you had fun ^.^ Get most of your shopping done?))
