Strength of the bonds

[sabella]

Soft moans, faint shifting was all Niklas was going to feel or see from the woman currently in his arms. Sabella was hurt, sure she would live but that didn't mean she any better off at the moment. That male had done a good number on her, especially her leg. The blade had sliced right through no doubt hitting muscle and tendons doing extensive damage. Yet at the time she couldn't even think about backing down and risk being possible killed.

Maybe. It was highly unlikely they knew how to kill either her or Niklas, but still she was worried. But help herself in check praying Nik would be able to reach her before it was too late and luckily he did. Not even registering when he had told her to rest. She was already out as he carried her from the area. Surrendering to the pain that washed over her and she only prayed when she awoke the damage wasn't too bad.

Sure their kind healed didn't mean they couldn't he hurt badly in the process. But at the moment not even her mind was contemplating those thoughts it was empty, her body limp, cradled carefully against his chest. But the one amazing thing was her blade held tightly even in her unconscious state within her hand. Sabella wasn't about to loss that blade no matter what.

Niklas watched her seemingly surrender, he believed she fainted but would never tell her that, to the sleep that overtook her. He carried her nestled against his chest. Holding her close and protectively. He had pain. He had a limp in his right leg from getting flung by the she devil by it into the ground. Scratches that were hissing inside from the poison. Near inaudible hissing though. Gashes down his leg from those talon like nails the she devil had digging in deep. Still he walked like absolutely nothing was wrong with him.

He actually had had far worse then this. His head nearly being severed from his shoulders but enough not that he managed to heal from it...being one of those worst case scenarios. Another time he had taken a tumbled down a sharply rocked mountainside. Yes. He was no stranger to pain. He lived by the motto what didn't kill him made him stronger. This was no different from any other close encounters with death that he had had. Not that he had a close encounter with death. Unless you counted the poison which SHOULD have technically killed him if he were a normal mortal man. But...he wasn't. Yay for him in this case.

He walked until he got them to the little hut he had built them. It was a small hut but it suited them both. Even had too bedrooms but he often slept in a feline or bird form at the bottom of her bed. Just felt nice having company at night. Sometimes he played dead as a dog at the end when she woke up. Never moving if she did wake him. He wasn't stupid enough to risk facing that chance of a woman's wrath. However, he did advert his gaze in case she was nearly naked to naked while sleeping. He was still a gentleman...sorta. Mostly anyways.

He slumped down on his back on the bed. Laying there but didn't let go of Sabella. God...his entire body stung and felt achey from the poison. They were home now so it was alright.

[sabella]

Yes Sabella with the amount of pain and blood loss had just passed right out. Her body doing what it could to overcome the wounds and needing time to heal itself properly so she was out. Not even registering as Niklas carried her cradled in his arms against his chest. One they did reach the hut though she seemed to almost unconsciously register their location and the blade tumbled to the floor.

Her body was stiff and stayed curled into his chest for the moment although slowly she would let out soft whimpers. Or moans. Faintly twitching part of her body just a little most likely just typical reactions when one is asleep. It was far to much for her to be waking up just yet otherwise the pain would no doubt hit her again full on.

Thankfully though her breathing had leveled out, even her heart rate was normal. So she was resting as peacefully as one could be under the circumstances at least. Now it would just be a matter of time for their bodies to heal the wounds leaving nothing behind. No doubt Niklas would heal faster since he had minor compared to her. One thing for sure was she wouldn't be happy and no doubt wanting to find that blasted bastard and his whore to seek some revenge.

It wasn't normal but than again the whole attack wasn't either now.

[niklas]

Niklas felt her twitching every so often and lazily opened one eye. Holding her to him and felt the stinging of his arms beginning to become less and less. He hoped Sabella didn't wake any time soon. She would be in a world of pain if she did. No...he hoped she stayed unaware of the healing. He felt the scratches on his arms and hands painfully beginning to mend and heal themselves shut. His leg however, would take longer to heal due to the fact he had five holes going straight to the bone. He hoped that she devil and her arrogant bastard mate suffered as well. Though from what he had heard the male rather liked the extra pain. At least the woman felt a lot. Meant her mate wouldn't be too happy either. He said nothing just held onto her like he could protect her from all the evils of the world. He couldn't but that was just how he felt at the moment. She had been hurt far worse than he had.

[sabella]

One thing about their kind was it took alot to kill them and while they both would live, the pain was still a royal bitch. She felt so bloody drained and weak right now it really pissed her off that those two got such an upper hand on them like that. Sabella was kicking herself for not seeing the girl's little act for what it was instead of trying to be so kind.

Mentally growling and replaying the whole fight in her head once more, but at the same time trying to find some kind of weakness. It was like the two didn't have one except each other, seeing as that bastard was pretty protective over the girl. Not that Sabella went out looking for fights or killing people for now reason, still she wanted something.

Sighing softly and stirring a little in Nik's arms before hissing when she went to far and the pain shot through her again. The blade did a number on her leg and she wouldn't or tried to not move it to much. Rather glad it didn't kill her but wasn't sure if there would be any damage or not. It never happened before but hey they never knew. Moaning softly as her head turned some so she was facing him, though her eyes remained closed. Still for the most part unconscious and still needing more rest to fully recover.

It didn't mean she wasn't knowing where she was or who exactly even had her right now. "Niklas..." Her mind softly calling but she was actually vocally calling for him as well.
