Aor saw surprise displayed in her eyes. That made him kinda skeptical.<span style="font-style: italic">"Hmmm, it is strange to be surprised. Not that I want to harm her... Maybe she.... Naahh don't be a fool Aor. No monstrosity would dare to set foot in this place.</span>Those thoughts were in Aor's mind as he heard her refuse his offer. He didn't answer. Only turned his look to the glass of wine the waitress offered him.<span style="font-style: italic">"A shame... I haven't spoke to anyone new for a long time. I would like to have some company but... what the hell?"</span>said Aor inside him. He took a big sip of his wine and felt the taste walking slowly from his tongue into his neck.<br/><br/>He tried to get up and sit elsewhere but then he heard her voice.<span style="font-style: italic">â€œOn second thought it would be nice to have a bit of company tonight...â€</span>His dark eyes met her golden look. Her smile, kind and warm, made him feel nice in a strange way. He repaid her with a kind smile of his own. She extended her hand to him.<span style="font-style: italic">â€œMy name is Eryan by the way. It is nice to meet you Aorâ€</span>He took her hand and kissed it gently looking right into her eyes, as he did with every woman he met for the first time. "Nice to meet you Eryan. You have a beautifull name and kinda... rare into those places." he said in a mystrious tone. "You look tired and, might I say... troubled?" he continued saying with the same mystery in his voice, trying to learn if she was really in any kind of danger. In the back of his head a little voice was alerting him like a frustrating alarm to be carefull.<span style="font-style: italic">"She just changed her opinion? Hmmm, that sounds strange to me..."</span>the little voice said in his head but Aor didn't know if he wanted to listen as it was the first interesting company he had after a long time.
