"Hmmm~" Elsie felt a thrill run down her body, crawling on her skin in an unfamiliar, yet comfortable sensation. She placed her hands on Raph's chest, pushing him away, her raspy breath echoing within the walls of the room while her lips glistened red and swollen. "Wh–What do you think you're doing? Snap out of it! You're drunk" She muttered, her gaze growing queasy. Raph stared at her, his expression unreadable, except the lust hidden beneath his eyes. He suddenly lowered himself, despite Elise's protest and clasped their lips again. "RaMfff~" Her hands were going limb, as she attempted to protest again, pushing him as firmly as she could, but he wasn't moving. 'Huh? How strong is he?! I'm using my werewolf strength right now!' she thought, when Raph pulled upwards, giving her another moment of respite. Their gazes locked on one another, untold feelings swirling within them as unrecognizable sensations roamed within them, though it felt too short-lived. They wanted more–No–needed more. "Raph....Please". Despite the longing she held back within her gaze, she attempted to make sense of what little rationality they had left. He was drunk, a situation that shouldn't have occurred as he was a master, but this was his first drinking, in both lives. Spending most of his time in the war, he was restricted to certain celebrations and that was drinking. He had reached the tenth star in the battlefield at the age of twenty-three and the Master rank at the age of twenty. Sent to war immediately after he was found to have reached the Master rank, he never got the chance to drink wholeheartedly and master the art of drinking without getting drunk.....or so it seemed. 'He wouldn't approve normally....I don't want him to wake up and feel bad about this'. Contrary to Elise's refutation, her wolf, deep within her, was screaming at her, urging her to get done with it. Raph was her Mate, not something self-proclaimed but a feeling a werewolf gets on seeing their future partner for the first time. Many find theirs at just the right time, a few earlier on and a minor number, a lot later than others. It varied, and she was the first to find a human as a mate. It confused her at first, but with time, after entering the Academy, that confusion was soon lost. 'No...even before that....at the time he saved me, I had always wanted that'. Her gaze had grown foggy with the heat of the moment, her breath raspy as her gaze was fixed on Raph. She fought back the urge continuously and persistently. She was ready to offer herself, right there and then. 'But not like this....' A sigh escaped Raph's lips, as he held out her arm and pulled it towards his face. His sudden action caught Elsie by surprise, as her mouth was left hanging. "You're....You're sober?" She asked. A small smile spread on Raph's face as he lowered his body to hers, their face meeting each other, yet again. "What do you think?". His voice sent a shiver down her spine, the heat growing within her abdomen exploding. She wrapped her arms around his shoulder, pulling him to her warmth as they locked lips yet again. Burly and Merthy nodded in agreement, while Harry smirked at their responses. "Either way, the problem remains the Calla Lily–I mean, the former members of the Calla Lily. Their trust in Neuj Rakarf seems nearly unbreakable". Burly said with a sigh, folding his hands. "We should use the one known as Sora. She would be our representative for them and guide them ... They will follow our orders through her....if you do not wish to use a bind contract, that is". "Yes, we had the same thought....it would be slow, but we can be sure there wouldn't be a form of rebellion if we let them come to us on their own" Explore more stories with My Virtual Library Empire Merthy nodded, a sigh exuding from her lips. "It will also boost their morale if we get those missing girls back. It wasn't worthy of note to most of them, but a few did notice the bizarre nature of it. They wish to get to the bottom of it as well". "True...". A brief silence followed after, Ziza slowly standing up from the table. "I guess we are done then. We'll discuss our future plans on another day but for now" She looked around the tavern, a sly smile on her face. "We should prepare the clean-up and the foundations of our plan". "Yes, Mac and I will get Sora to join us....she is someone I am willing to use a Bind Contract on" Burly said, glancing at his comrade next to him. Mac Allizer nodded in satisfaction. "Then, it shall be so. I trust your judgement so make sure it goes well. As for Merthy...and the others" Ziza turned to the others gathered. "Prepare yourselves. You will be taken to the Training Zone immediately after sending off Raoh and the others. We can not tolerate weakness at this crucial moment". "Yes, Guild Master" They chorused. "You are dismissed". With her statement, the group of five stood up, goals hung in the air tightly as a future within their grasp was prepared to be grabbed. **** And so, morning came, and with it, the ambient rays of the sun, with its warm splendour and crimson hue. The vast skies were cascaded with the tranquil cloud of the day, while a bizarre pattern of blue and black intertwining with each other hung at the far corner of Border Town. It told tales of a love that had blossomed, a harmony soon to be achieved. While the people began their morning calls, the members of the Cat Guild and the Rugged Coin were gathered in the free zone. Once the free zone, was now a memorable location, the place where the liberation of the Border Town had occurred. The sight where two of the Pillars lost their leaders, whether they were good people or bad didn't matter, but the fact remained that the future of the Border Town was looking a little brighter.
