She hesitates then looks up into his eyes again hers curious "Then would you tell me why you live away from others and why the villagers are...weary of you and your family?" her voice is nervous but innocent not wanting to ruin the moment
"We are just used to being by ourselves. As for the people, they are just hostile toward people that they don't understand." As Vlad spoke he almost let go of her, he trusted her but not enough to tell her what he was
"Okay I trust you" she smiles warmly then rests her head against his chest softly "Mmm your always warm no matter how cold it is, I envy that" her voice is teasing and soft as she closes her eyes
Zella smiled comforted and warmed by his arms around her she felt....Safe. Her scent surrounds Vlad clinging to her skin she smells of roses, jasmine, and something uniquely her "Mm I like winning"
Zella's smiles staring back into his "As am I, even though it was under not so good circumstances im glad I met you at the tavern" Looking up at him her face a few inches from his "How old are you Vlad?"
Looking down at her he saw into her mind. He hated using mental powers with her but if he told her his true age, it would be a dead giveaway. "I'm 19" he said
Zella's mind is a complete blank to him not showing him anything. She smiles "Im 18....Umm do you umm...." deciding to change what she was gonna ask she looks up at the stars "Do you like the night sky? The stars and moon?"
Zella hesitates a moment surprised then smiles kissing him back timidly his cool lips feeling so foreign against hers, she runs her hands up his back over his coat leaving them against his upper back
She smiles against his lips kissing back slightly more bravely, Im kissing a man thats nearly a stranger....But my heart is soaring. Zella runs her hands up his neck sliding her fingers into his hair
