Forever
My face was as red as a tomato being discovered by Yuki. Not convinced by her words of coaxing, I crouched down and peered from around the corner. No no no. I was not moving from this spot! Not while that attractive Fallen Angel was out there. I refused to humiliate myself in front of him. I flipped my hair in front of my face and bit my bottom lip.
A gasp and squeal escaped my lips as I felt myself being swooped up. My eyes widened in surprise as I noticed who it was carrying me. My heart stopped for a least two minutes. >///<
"Got you now, princess." He chuckled in an alluring way. Alluring to me, at least. Princess? where the hell did that come from? But I did end up feeling like a princess. He escorted me to Yuki and BrokenTear and just held me for a moment while he seemed to notice something. I didn't want to be an interruption so I kept silent as I enjoyed being in his arms. Trying to be discreet and like it was unintentional, I nuzzled into his chest, enjoying the warmth.
But I was stolen from him by Yuki as she pulled me from him and hid behind me though she was a tad taller than me.
"He's mine now!" She stated loudly and blushing I couldn't help but laugh. It was slightly flattering, actually.
I stood between the two as they bickered over me. Not used to the attention, I squealed and hid my mouth with the sleeve of my oversized sweater though there was no need-- my mask did that job for me.
"This damsel is in DISTRESS!" I exclaimed, overwhelmed as I hid my blushing face. I plopped down on the floor with my knees together and looked up at the two.
"Well... N-not actually distress but... oh dear." I felt exhausted now for some reason and I blinked in confusion. I looked at BrokenTear.
"Am I being... pranked?" I asked impishly, "I don't believe I'm being fought over."
BrokenTear
Yuki explained that this new guy, Setsuna as he had introduced himself to me, was a childhood friend of her. I felt as if there was something strange happening at the very moment. But whatever it was remained unknown to me. It was this odd feeling I had-- a feeling of possession. Over who, though? Unclear as it was, I shrugged it off. It was in my blood and instinct to protect the inhabitants of this castle, no matter if I claimed them or not.
Being lost in thought, I had zoned out while Yuki and Setsuna had brought out Forever from his hiding spot. I smiled. The little wolf boy, although very embarrassed, seemed to be happy for the first time since the loss of our 'family'. After that battle, Forever had become even more so introverted than he was after I found him. After being just... tossed and left to die in the forest, bleeding and violated, he was bound to have some issues.
But, here he was smiling and I had a good feeling in my being about the two new outcasts.
I was about to answer Forever when an Angel, familiar but not recognizable, entered the hallway.
Ethan
Having frolicked through the flowers enough, I decided to explore the castle. With a flower between my fingers, I twirled it and heard the sound of laughter and I smelled the scent of hell heavily. To make my presence known, I stepped into the hallway. BrokenTear being the only one I actually recognized, stopped and stared at me and soon the others followed. The tension in the room seemed to elevate a lot from the fun that was had here a moment ago.
"Hello everyone." I smiled cheerfully, attempting to be friendly though that damned Fallen Angel and BrokenTear's mere presence was burning my skin with a white-hot sensation.
"I'm Ethan. The twin brother of the maid, Erela." Blank stares were the only response, "she's asleep right now so I let myself in. I hope you don't mind." I spoke and tilted my head to the side with a smirk.
