Darren just sat there taking stock of his feelings. It didn't take to long to understand he really didn't love Tonya, but did have some feelings for h...r. He knew the pain he felt was only his bruised pride from the sting of her unexpected rejection.'She was the best I've ever had, ' he admitted to himself. 'I'm sure going to miss her body... , but I do wish her the best. She's one fine lady.'With a grin he realized there was a small silver lining to this otherwise dark cloud. Now he didn't have. The other four shifted their gazes from the wraiths, back to their small encampment. There was still the issue of only three wraiths to their five, yet they all decided to put it aside for now, after all...In addition to being sharp, Yarnus was also very crafty and a little bit lucky. Before they left the Tensen Crow clan for the assignment, his contact in the clan and inside woman in the Mercenary Association, divulged to him the matter of the folktale and the Mercenary Association’s. I asked if she was hurt or something, and then she blurt out the truth. At the party she had been at, a boy she didn't know had somehow convinced her drunkenly to try anal with him. It was her first time ever with no experience. Up until that point she had not even let me slip a pinky inside her there when we slept together. She said he was very small and gentle with her, but still she had barely been able to walk across campus to see me after. She knew how badly I had wanted that part of her. The last few spurts fired out harder. I softened as she gazed into my eyes. "Do you feel better now?" "Not better, no." "Aww. What do you mean?" "I've been in love with you since we first met. It sounds silly, I'm sure. When I heard your voice over the phone I knew you were the one. When I saw you I believed in my heart that you were out of my league and it almost convinced me to forget about you. But now you're mine and I'm eternally grateful for that. I feel indebted to you for accepting me.
