Kaine's eyebrow quirked a bit as he mentioned who had done it and something akin to a bitter curse slipped from her lips before she turned away for just a moment to bite back her anger. She hoped the weasel was somewhere growing cold in a ditch. It was better than he deserved. Children were to be treasured beyond measure. To treat them as a hated animal and tool...<br/><br/>Finally she regained her composure and followed her sister on the way out, hearing the question as she gave him a farewell. She was not inclined to share it. It seemed to be asking for trouble.<br/><br/>___---___---___---___---<br/><br/>Abelle looked over her shoulder a bit as they left the room and tilted her head slightly. The males eyes had not left her sister. She smiled a bit and with a gentle push and a nod to the male behind them, prompted a response from her sister. She just hoped that she had enough time to eliminate the scars upon his body later. None should have to wear such marks. They were not battle marks of a warrior after all.<br/><br/>---___---___---___---___---___<br/><br/>Kaine frowned at her sister and finally with a sigh, but refusing to look back again, lest she was once more caught up in affairs that were not her own, spoke her name.  "Kaine."  She told him and then pushed her sister through the door. She made sure it shut and then pinched her sisters arm a bit. "What was that about?" She asked her and then turned her attention back to the matter at hand.  " I don't like this."<br/><br/>___---___---___---___---___---<br/><br/>Abelle had no reason to disagree, only rubbed her arm and shrugged at her twin before they went in to speak with the man that had hired them. He was not one that she was always comfortable around, but it was not the first time they had been hired to help out someone that had come through his doors. She did not dare to ask what happened to them. The man looked at her as a hungry wolf would look at a downed deer, and oft she was sure he was calculating what was also beneath her robes, and her sisters. But he had never made any overtures of carnal intent, so they continued to deal with him.<br/><br/>Still she breathed out a long sigh of relief when the man handed over their coin and they departed. Their next stop was to the village of elves. And her chance to see that odd man once more.
