"She's been through this a hundred times before Alek," Paion said as she helped Alek out of harm's way, "she'll be fine. You're the one that warrants concern right now." When they were safely outside of the ring and far enough away she couldn't still reach them with her claws or tail she let him sink back to the ground and then inspected his arm.<br/><br/>Bran and Meztli waited till the two of them were out of the ring before Meztli released Eztli and ran out after them, Bran keeping a hold on her till she was out, but she was getting bigger and stronger and he was having more and more trouble holding onto her, but as soon as his mate was in the clear he shoved her away from himself to gain a little space and took off as well.<br/><br/>Æsc laughed softly and let his fingers trail up and run through her hair, knowing she liked the feeling, "Yea, well I just do my best to make sure you know how much I need you. I know I don't deserve you so I have to make sure you keep loving me." He smirked and kissed her softly.
