Chase after those sunsets, it's alright (alright)

@Aries, Heat Day 1. Forwarding to the 16th since neither of us will be home this weekend!

Hmm.

What a strange sensation she woke up with today. She felt warm. Prettier than usual. Like the sun's heat was radiating from her core and all she could do to calm its burning was the companionship of someone to bask in her beauty and presence. But there was no one around. Not a soul. Not a pack to call home and strut her stuff in, none that fancied her taste at least.

With a sigh she wandered the mist. The scent of some men and a pack could be found here but the stench that radiated from the woods was incredibly awful. It was unlikely she could find anyone worth her time during the best day ever who won't make her skin crawl and nose want to run away into the mountains of the north and never turn back.

And so she walked. Oblivious to her womb blossoming for companionship, ready to create life. Leo just wanted someone to share today with, a feeling she hadn't felt ever and yet, it wasn't impossible for her to just want some companionship. She had been alone for so long after all. And so she wandered, as the only light in the dreary mist that surrounded the ray of light through the grasses.

Another day another chore. The fireborn had gone through the caches looking for something fuckin' DECENT for once, but nothing seemed to fancy his tastes. A rabbit here, a bird there. Yeah because a rabbit would fill him and he wanted to spend the rest of his day picking feathers out of his mouth. He needed a meal. Full three-course meal sounded particularly good if any of those deer were still roaming the pasture.

Hunting in the open was always a pain, even with the mist he stuck out like candy on broccoli. The only difference is the baby ran away from his mouth. Today...actually seemed different though. As Aries smelled the air it wasn't the scent of prey that caught his attention, it was something sweeter and almost on queue, he saw her. She too stuck out amongst the gloom like the sun breaking way to clear way to the heavens.

Finally a broad with god damn looks.

Aries moved swiftly, but casual as he approached. There was no point hiding she would see him one way or another and he wasn't some pansy who was about to wait for her to come to him. Or worse. For someone else to swoop in and ruin everything. He chuckled as he neared, eyes eagerly sweeping her frame “So what's a doll like you doin' in a place like this?”

Luckily for Aries, Leo wasn't a fan of broccoli. She saw the Candyman approach from a distance, easily picked through the dreary mist as he almost shone as brightly as she did. But not quite she had to add.

Standing in the mist as she watched the man approach, carefully the woman dissected him from a distance. With her hormones at their peak, she couldn't help but trace the lines of his figure with her eyes. He seemed tough. Rough. And roguishly handsome.

Believing he was in her grasp - with nothing more than just her simple beauty. Leo smiled coyly as he approached with an opening line to break the ice. “Oooh~ I thought this place would have some company for a lady.” Tilting her head and batting those blackened lashes, the charm was turned up a notch or two, wanting to keep the man around.
 
“You wouldn't happen to know where I can find some, do you?”

There was no hiding the swagger to his step, especially as she looked up to him with those batted lashes. She was leaning into her beauty, though why wouldn't she with looks like hers? Aries needed no convincing though, and to think any man would was offending. 

“Oooh~ I thought this place would have some company for a lady.”

A smirk grew along his maw as he closes in circling her, though surprisingly he would leave just enough of a gap between their bodies for her to want more. His tail flicked just under her jawline almost as if tilting her head up before his face came back around to get a better look at her crystalline eyes. “A gal like you doesn't want just any company.”

And certainly none around here. “The others will only waste your time.” He sat, head cocked slightly as he switched out his devious grin for something more sincere, “I, on the other hand, would make sure this is a night to remember.”

They danced for a moment, teasing one another and her skin felt like it was on fire. Wanting something she wasn't quite sure what it was. It was the first time she had such a feeling like this. It was confusing, and alluring and it didn't help that this guy was so damn dangerously good looking too. Both of them flickered like a flame in the dim light of the mist, a beacon in the darkness and she couldn't help but believe that this was perfect. Like a living sunset as their colours complimented the other.

Or was that just the heavy fog clouding her judgement right now?

He tempted her to come closer and though she wanted to close that distance, Leo was hard pressed to tease him too. To want her just as much as she wanted to get to know him better as well. “Of course not. I deserve only the best.” Tilting her head up as he brushed his tail under her chin, she let her blue eyes flicker to the corner of their oculars to view him with that one single alluring gaze.

She was a queen without a crown after all. A beauty queen that deserved all the attention she was getting right now; and she basked in it like the warmth of the sun. “Is that so, mr...” She sought his name, craning her neck to view him by glancing over her shoulder. “It would be hard to remember anyone without a name now wouldn't it?”

“Aries” He filled in the gap almost too eagerly, watching every movement as she glanced at him time and time again. She was a beaut and the way she flaunted it only proved she knew it just as well as he knew he had rugged good looks. Had he been looking to settle down they could have been a power couple. A pair no one could take their eyes off of.

The more they danced the more the danger rose. It would only be a matter of time before one if not both of them got burned, but that almost made it all that much more tempting. He swung around, hanging by her rear practically waiting for an invitation, but really did he need to ask? If you asked him, she was practically begging for it, but of course, she had been much too dignified to get down on her knees and beg.

Aries... what a simple name and a name she could easily store away into her memories should she need to find him again. TO be worshiped like this was of course something Leo adored. She glowed in this limelight he shone onto her. If he didn't stink of the wretched woods that lingered just beyond the fields, perhaps she would have thought of him further than just a whatever this was.

Well this was something new but her body seemed to know exactly what to do in this situation. Leo wasn't completely oblivious to what was happening, as he hung on her hips she was beyond curious now as to how it felt to truly be an adult now - what she was unaware of was the repercussions that would follow after. 

She would not beg, but Leo was welcoming the inevitable to happen...

From here, she was a slave to her hormones and the world seemed to melt around them as she ignored everything but the two of them.

When all was said and done, it was obvious that Aries was a very happy man. He lingered even after they had parted, wondering what she might do next or if she should stay for more. Of course, he was not blind to the scent she gave off. He was playing with fire and he enjoyed being a free man, not a father, but whatever repercussions came next would not be on his head should she go. Even if she succumbed to the shadows, Aries knew what kind of man Vengeance was.

The Nightwalkers were family, but not in the traditional sense. New recruits would probably be harbored by the boss, and to that, he had no complaints. The fireborn lounged amongst the grass, his eyes still glued to the firey woman even after all the time they had shared. “So doll, where to next? Or have you lost all feeling in those pretty legs of yours?” Certainly would explain why she was still hanging around here.

Well, it was safe to say that Leo had never felt that way before. She felt dirty, and... well... dirty, and she didn't dislike it like she thought she would. Maybe it was the satisfaction that came along with it just had her relax for a while when it came to her appearances maybe its maybeline.

So she laid there with him in the dew covered grass. The moisture of the greenery seeping through her coat and cooling down the skin that still felt like it was on fire. Almost feline like her tail curled at the end as she pondered his inquiry, tall ears tilting back to catch his words behind her as she barely leaned against him with her back turned to him.

It wasn't quite the most romantic position to end things, but this was just a fling right? The right thing to do was not to get too cheesy or romantic with it, feelings would make it all too complicated and shit, she was way too young to settle down now. Even if he was very handsome and tying down a man like him wouldn't be so bad. 

“Hmmm I'm not sure. Maybe East, North East or something.” He did ask where to after all, not what to do next. Honestly, before she would move on a nice bath would be nice. Wash off this smell before moving on. “Oh Aries, I may be tired now but I can't lay here forever.” A musical giggle fluttered by - plus, with her virginity gone, it was time to now try out other men and see how they compared.

She leaned into him if only slightly. It was enough for his liking to know that she had enjoyed herself enough that she had run off. Instead, she laid here in his arms, though it seemed clear that she did not want to admit that from the way she kept her body turned in almost a refusal to look his way. Still, her ears would turn back to listen, proof she had not walled him out completely. Aries thought back to his own travels before he settled, the land he had passed and the lack of wolves. Little did he know many had settled since then.

He chuckled tilting his head back to look to the darkened sky. “There's nothin' out there, Doll. Just gets colder the further you go. Doesn't quite seem fitting for a woman of your style.” She may have been the sun itself, but she belonged in a spotlight, not the wastes. “'Sides who said anything 'bout layin' around?” He grinned to himself as he leaned in to nip her ear. He certainly wouldn't complain about another round, but something told him he wouldn't get that lucky. Not tonight.

“Are you trying to keep me here?” A cheeky grin was tossed over her shoulder as he continued on with his excuses. Calling the northern regions cold, among other things. Insinuating that perhaps here was more exciting, maybe because he was here to keep her entertained and not "laying around" as he had so casually tossed around.

“Darling, you know I'll return some day.” As he nibbled on her ear, she would lean into the affection being shared. The attention he was bathing her in. Oh how she loved it. In this moment, she was the centre of his attention. Maybe she'd stay around for another round or two before heading off to the North as stated earlier, but Leonna was in no rush to move on from this perfect moment.

^^End!

“And what if I am?” He chuckled giving her a little bit of a harder nip along her neck. The unfortunate fact of the day was that she did not belong here and even if she did he would likely be unable to claim her as his and only his, be that by her own will or by Vengeance's. She would leave and he would stay, but her promise to return one day was enough for him to be satisfied in the moment as he would ultimately return to the mists from which he came. For now though, they would just lay and enjoy what they had.
