Merek dried himself off as Evence brush her teeth and play with her hair. He nodded in approval at leaving in the morning. He didn't like being away from Zane, but it was something he was used to. Zane had become infamous for disappearing only to return with unexplained battle scars. Merek felt more comfort with him being here because he was sure Evence, or more importantly Rose wouldn't allow him to do such things. Merek grabbed the pillows and made his way to the guest room. He made up the bed and was sleep almost as soon as he laid down. Merek dreamed of the recent occurrence with that strange wolf. In the dream he lunged the wolf before Evence had a chance to be injured. The wolf dug both his claws into Merek's chest and tore it open with ease. Merek awoke and it was morning time, and he realized he was in the process of transforming. He wasn't sure if he had howled or not but he sure hoped that he didn't.<br/><br/>-----<br/>Zane smiled at Rose and gripped her hands tight. "Believe me, I wasn't gonna try that again. For a second I was actually kinda scared Rose." Zane chuckled but he was serious. he pulled Rose down onto him and kissed her. "I'll protect you from anything trying to kill you ever again. I love you Rose." Zane's face turned red as he said it. He had never actually said those words, although he implied it a few times towards Merek.
