"Good for you because love isn't a good thing, It's a sickness." 'A sickness...' Almost like what he had done to her last night.... "I still don't know, if I am...it's just a feeling I get. Yes she glowed beauty,I couldn't even get her out of my dream.  I don't know, but I'm guessing not....she would never choose me." Rota knew she was beautiful but hearing it from him made her feel just a little bit happier. She didn't understand these emotions at all but there was nothing she could do right now but ignore it but his words...., "She never can." She whispered softly when he said she would never choose him since she did not want to lose her immortality and become mortal.<br/><br/>Her words had been so soft that she didn't think he had heard her. Her eyes had moved shameful to the ground but she did look up when he touched her face. His touch was feather lite but it burned her skin and heated her blood like no other, "You look as beautiful, but nowhere near her. I'm sorry, I must be scaring you." She took a step back from him but forced a soft smile, "I am sorry for your troubles sir." She bowed lightly to him and took another step back, "But I must leave you know. I hope that... that this woman will either leave you be.... or that you find another." She turned and left him there by the water with a more broken and confused expression then before. She walked until she came to an alleyway and disappeared..<br/><br/>That was it now... she would no longer lay claim to Adam's soul.<br/><br/>Adam would not have noticed it too much but his lips lightly glowed then faded as she receded her claim on him.<br/><br/>------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>"Poor strong warrior." A sultry sweet famine voice called from the water, "How cruel of a Daughter of the Sky to twist a mortal heart around her fingers." The water bubbled violently and rose up onto the air forming a feminine figure. The water woman seemed to smile softly as she stood on top of the water, "I have felt your confusion and sadness and know what it is like to be toyed with. I shall help you if you wish... to find you golden haired Valkyrie." She brought her hands up, as though she was holding a ball, and water swirled in between her hands. Light shined in the middle of this water sphere until an image appeared.<br/><br/>First that came into view was golden hair that fell down a slim woman's back. Then eyes as blue as the deep ocean and full lips that were a delicate shade of pink. This woman's fair skin glowed softly and a sheer white robe was loosely wrapped around her, "Rota," The water woman whispered, "The Valkyrie of torment." In the sphere Rota had stepped towards a small bathing pool and slowly the robe fell to the floor but the image had followed the fall of the robe too fast for much of anything to be seen. Long slender legs stepped away from the fallen robe and into the water, but before anything farther then her thighs could be seen it focused on her profile. Her head turned and it looked as though she may be looking directly at Adam until the image faded and the water fell back into the lake.<br/><br/>The water spirit had remained quiet and allowed Adam to take his fill of the woman's beauty but she had only given him a taste.  She knew that this man wanted Rota passionately and that her body was like a sirens call to him but if she showed too much then her words would not have the full effect, "I can help you trap your little Valkyrie here." Her hand delicately gestured to the area around her, "In the human plane and give you something to keep her close to you." A small bracelet slowly formed out of water and then solidified into pure gold. It was delicately crafted with many strange runes but before he would be able to think about grabbing it, it disappeared.<br/><br/>The water woman smiled once more, "I can give you your chance to win the Valkyries heart. In winning that you might win her body as well." She held out her hand but she would not let her reach extend over the grass. She remained completely over the water of the lake, "What do you say?" She whispered and hid her eagerness as she awaited the mans reply.
