Ravlr grew speechless, completely stunned by her words and feeling great warmth developing within his chest. Eventually his features softened into a warm smile. He then leaned in close to give her a kiss on the forehead and then another on her nose, chuckling a little as he did so. Still the smile remained and still his thumb continued to stroke her cheek. "Even so I still want to give you so much more. You deserve all the great things the world has to offer and one day I will make it possible for you to experience all these wondrous things. This I promise you, beloved sister."

Tanox gave a little sheepish laugh while rubbing his neck. "Right... I should have thought of that beforehand." Then he got to his feet using the couch to help him. Though in doing so he accidentally leaned in pretty close to her before standing up to his full height. He slipped his hands under her and lifted her off the couch. As he walked he looked at her with a slight look of dread, he just had to ask. "About taking you shopping, can't you go by yourself? I mean I really don't want to be standing around bored out of my mind as you pick out all the groceries you want and then have me do all the carrying afterwards. This also applies for when you're shopping for clothes. In fact don't even take me anywhere near a clothing store unless you're planing on modeling for me. Gotta make it worth my while." He smiled and winked at her before gently setting her down in the kitchen. Afterwards he pulled out the wrapped up venison and set it on the counter. Once that's done he began to search the kitchen for some potatoes amazingly he found three of them hidden away somewhere. He put those on the counter as well. Now he waited to see if there's anything else he could help with.

Tanox crossed his arms across his chest and turned to look out one of the windows, back turned to her. It took a short while of internally struggling with himself before any words or any other form of noise crawled out from his throat. He sighed before starting his short explanation. "You won't be satisfied till you find out the actual truth, will you? Alright fine you get your wish. In truth I just can't stand returning to an empty house, not anymore. Not after...... Anyways that's my reason. Now excuse me I...I need to be somewhere. Don't wait up on me." With that he left and ran off into the woods.

Tanox didn't return home until the early morning hours of dawn. The time in between was spent on curling up in wolf form and sleeping near a carved stone embedded into the ground that marked the resting place of two individuals. Once back at the house the steaks were the first thing to grab his attention and he wasted no time in devouring them. He didn't care if they were cold by now. Didn't care if he looked more animal then human as he ripped out chunks of the steak. Overall he just couldn't be bothered by such things. Once done he washed the plate and put it with the others then went up the stairs. As he was about to enter his room he looked over to Zyra's for a minute wondering if she was awake. Probably not. With a sigh his gaze shifted to the only remaining bedroom door. That door was the only door that was kept locked at all times. Behind that door held memories from over three years ago. Finally he entered his room but didn't fall asleep instead he listened to music and sometimes would softly sing along.

(wtf haha thats crazy. at least you don't go off raiding the fridge unless that already happened. i've never personally seen anyone do that before it makes me kinda curious)

Complete confusion and hesitation riddled his being. From the moment of her entering to making herself comfortable next to him. It just left him wondering what was going on as he refused to move a single muscle. He dared not move from his frozen position and risk waking her up in case she might get the wrong idea about this whole ordeal that is entirely her doing but will probably be pinned on him anyway. Sure he could always try to shift the focus by saying the usual indecent comments and hope it worked to distract her. Though once he slowly stopped fretting about it altogether he can't help but take in the image of her sleeping form. Before he never really took notice but now that she's this close to him he's pretty much captivated and he shouldn't be. No he just can't. He gotta put distance between them and now. So he slowly started moving to the edge hoping she wouldn't catch him in the act and assume something entirely different.

(Haha wow that's just too funny)

Tanox looked at her with slight bewilderment. Well that was news to him, who would have thought? He looked away as he thought about how he should handle this. Should he stay or should he go? Having the warmth of another right beside him did feel nice. For so long he experienced the dreaded coldness of loneliness after having lost his precious most beautiful moon and their little shinning star, that he had forgotten how it felt to have a warm body close to his and not the cool glass of whiskey bottles or the cold stone of the tombstone. It was a nice change but uncertainty and hesitation still kept him at bay.

Tanox exhaled a long and slow breath before finally giving in. "Okay...." He didn't refuse or protest any further. Although hesitation still took hold of him it didn't prevent him from returning to her. Yet despite the efforts he still kept an inch or two between them. This is good enough, isn't it? At least he wasn't pulling away and leaving her alone again. Then again, besides their joint hands, he refrained from getting in full contact with her.

Now looking poised and freshly groomed once more Tanox exited his room. He looked out one of the many windows as he suddenly grew anxious. Soon enough he would meet his wife-to-be and all his wondering throughout the years will come to an end as the final moment approaches. There's not a single doubt in him that she would be quite the captivating beauty, but is that all there is to her? While he never complained before about being in the company of beautiful ladies, he only had to endure them for a while. But this woman will become his wife and he doesn't want to be stuck with someone who has the beauty but not much else. Sighing he could only hope Princess Leanne is more than just a pretty face.

Ravlr playfully groaned in exaggeration from her weight. Although in reality she didn't weigh all that much to him, she was actually fairly light. "Ugh...... Sauit you're heavy. Did you eat a whole turkey when I wasn't looking?" he joked while shifting a little to look at her upper half. Then he wrapped an arm around her waist to keep her in place as his other made its way to her feet, planning on tickling them.

"Night.." his voice barely audible. He stayed awake long after she fallen to sleep. He couldn't join her in the dreamworld since there were so many thoughts running through his mind. So many conflicting emotions raging war against one another within him. It was troubling enough where it was to the point of him hating it. Was it a mistake going to that damn place and actually acquiring a being? Was he wrong to partake in that? Looking down at their join hands he can't help but smile softly. Maybe it was a mistake maybe it wasn't but he can't say he regret meeting this sleeping beauty despite their rocky start. Finally he succumbed to sleep.

No longer feeling any body close to his Tanox shifted to the edge and faced the opposite direction. He continued to sleep soundly for a while longer until his phone started to ring. Though he chose to ignore the annoying little device and let out sighed when it finally stopped. Right when sleep started to take over the damn phone rang again forbidding sleep from returning. Groaning and giving up on even trying again the man answered the phone. Surely enough he was up within seconds, jumping out of bed after ending the call, changing clothes, freshening up to look presentable, the usual routine of starting the day. Once done he ran downstairs but stopped halfway through the busted front door, turning around and walking up to Zyra. "Well hello there beautiful lady. Did you enjoy sleeping with me? Maybe next time we could try that without the clothes." Despite his earlier behavior he has no problem with making such comments since they won't actually lead to anything.

Tanox sniff the air taking in the delicious aroma as a sense of nostalgia overcame him. "Twincest how nice but I hear nothing about friends. Were you not comfortable enough to cozy up with them?" Drawing closer to look over her shoulder at the cooking omelets the sight of them made his mouth water. "Anyway a warning would have been nice. Thank you very much for telling me late though." As his gaze continued to be locked on the delicious smelling omelets his stomach decided to make itself known to the both of them. Immediately his hands flew up to clutch it in hopes of silencing the growling beast but to no avail. His cheeks redden a little and he gave a small embarrassed chuckle afterwards. "I guess 'I'm hungry like the wolf' for your cooking. Though I'd rather have you instead but your cooking is just as good..... Is it ready yet?"

Tanox's gaze followed hers before thanking her for the food and sitting down with the plate in hand. "Although I appreciate the gesture and all in truth you did nothing wrong you were just curious. It was me who blew it out of proportion. Thus there is nothing you should apologize for." After taking a few bites and taking a moment to savor the deliciousness of it he continued. "Speaking of family, friends, and college. Since you're going to be living with me do you want stop by your dorm later on to collect your stuff and do whatever else you need to do? Does your family visit or plan to visit anytime soon? Will your friends become a problem considering your new living conditions?"

Tanox sighed and steeled his waning nerves before entering the grand hall. It would be here where he shall wait and meet his fiancee for the very first time. As he waited there with his family, ladies-in-waiting, and a couple of other servants he could hear the commotion going on outside that no doubt meant the arrival of his fiancee. So this is it....

Tanox chuckled along with her and continued to eat as he listened. By the time she was done he already cleaned his entire plate of food. "I can understand that but don't think I'm going to let you continue on that way. You still got obligations to me and if I want to play then we shall play so no complaining when I take you away from your studies." He picked up his dirty plate and washed it before putting it away. Then he turned around and leaned against the counter. "About that Jacob guy.... I would love to see the look on his face when he sees you again and if you want I could hold him down while you kick his @ss. Either way I wanna be there when it happens, if it happens."

Tanox nodded to her condition of not bugging her when cramming for tests. Although that was sort of a given already. He rolled his eyes and folded his arms across his chest after she said that one line he knew would be said at one point or another. "True I owe him that much I guess but you make it sound like I was nothing before you came into my life. As if you've changed my life for the better and I should reward the guy handsomely for making it possible to meet you. If our paths really were destined to intersect then it wouldn't matter if he sold you in the first place or not cause eventually we would have met anyways. It's just that he help the process move along a little quicker. Anyway you plan on doing anything anytime soon?"

Rav laughed along with her and tighten his hold on her so she couldn't escape anytime soon, he wasn't through with her just yet. The tickling went on for a little bit more before finally easing to a stop to allow his sister to take a breather as well as regain his own breath. That would be when he withdrew his hands from her thus releasing her. By now his full on laughter reduced to short burst of chuckling until it ended in a sigh of contentment.

Ezio found himself enjoying her company so much so that he would be comfortable enough to be with her and wouldn't feel the need to make small talk. Though he did wondered why was that when they haven't known each other for very long or know much about the other, not even their names are known. But did that really matter? Perhaps not. He will just have to see how it will play out from here on out. Seeing her doing the exact same thing he has been doing this entire time he couldn't help but ask if there was something on her mind.

Tanox sighed feeling bad for giving her that kind of attitude. He mostly was just irritated with the phrase 'If it weren't for so and so then this so and so wouldn't have happened' since he heard it many times before that it became quite annoying. With some hesitation he gave her an awkward hug well it felt awkward for him though he hoped it didn't feel the same for her too. "Don't worry about it but I do get what you're saying so don't fret too much. Do speak your mind and don't let my attitude discourage you. I'd rather you be straightforward and honest with me." He released her then took a step back trying hard not to avert his eyes. "Alright so.. um.... I gotta go for now. I'll be back in about a hour or so, depends, but it shouldn't take long. You'll be fine on your own right?"

Tanox chuckled as he too looked at the sorry excuse of a door. "Yeah that's one of the reasons why I'm going out." His attention went back to her and lingered for a few extra seconds. There was something on his mind he wanted to give voice to but then chose against it. Instead he gave her a smile then turned to leave. "Okay see you when I get back then." With that said he walked out to his parked truck and drove away.
