I jerk back in panic as I watch the male struggle a little as to not drop the fruits in his arms. The fruit was round and had course skin, like that of a grapefruit. The color, however was of a pale skull and was slight bigger than the palm of my hand. I watch as one of the fruits escapes the arms of the male and lands on the ground with a thud.

"Ah! I'm sorry!" I blurted out as I bend down to grab the fruit and, to my surprise, it was very heavy. It was the same weight as that of a bowling ball or boulder. My back bended awkwardly as I lifted the fruit off the ground, eventually holding the fruit in both arms. As I hold the fruit my legs seem to buckle in protest causing me to stumble.

"Ah, are you ok female?" The male worriedly asked as I met my blue eyes with his deep brown. His sandy brown hair hung loose on top of his head as his neck bent downward to look at me. His skin was a light tan and decorated with sweat beads that appeared on his skin. His muscles were toned but they were not as defined as Sorens. Around his waist he wore a light animal skin skirt.

My eyes and brain still haven't gotten use to the sight of half-naked men. He laughs a little as he looks at me. That laugh sends my stomach flying in bliss while my face reddens a deep crimson out of embarrassment.

"Y-yeah, I'm fine." I stammered out trying to keep my eyes to the ground.

'I'm not the only thing that is fine. I mean what is with all these guys being attractive?' I could feel the tips of my ear heat up under that thought.

I quickly tried to hand the fruit back to the male so I could run off and find Soren. "Uh, here's your fruit back. I'm real sorry for not looking were I was going." I reluctantly move my body closer to the male to pass the fruit back to him. It was a bit difficult with the weight of the fruit and the size difference between us.

As I shuffled my body closer to him I  noticed how his body heat radiated off of him in waves. My head only reached his chest, leaving me with an interesting sight of his muscles flexing. I blush even more as my eye were almost glued to his chest but I managed to tilt my head upwards. With that I could see his eyes as clear as day, shining in there own beauty. Our bodies finally came close enough to were I could feel his bent arms holding a pile of these strange, pale fruits.

I began to lower the fruit into the males arms but I sudden sharp tug against my shoulder causes me to drop the fruit in my arms and stumble backwards. I feel as thought I was falling but I was suddenly turned to be pulled face first into a firm, bare chest. The world became dark as my face smashed against the strangers chest. I could hear the heart inside beating a mile a minute as quick, warm breaths tickled my neck.

'Oh-Wow! T-this is-' I try to stop myself from thinking anymore dirty thoughts.

My heart beats fast at this sudden action as I try to push away with no luck. Suddenly a chill goes up my spine as I hear the deep rumble come from the stranger.

"She's my mate." Sorens tone was threatening as it was filled with hostility. I could feel how his arm squeezed me against him even more, causing me to grasp for breath. My mind races in fear and my body began to quiver.

"S-Soren.." It was the only word I could muster out before the grip around me loosened. I gasped for air and squinted under the sudden introduction back into the sunlight. I could tell that my skin seemed very flushed as every inch of my body burned in a startled embarrassment. I look up at Soren with the room I was given to breath with pleading eyes.

"S-soren, what are you doing!?" I quiver a little as I notice his other arm was out stretched and I could hear gasping from an unknown source. "Soren!" My voice trembled in fear at the realization of what he was doing. "Soren, Let go!" I try my best to push away but it was still no use. My mind raced with what to do next but Soren seemed more preoccupied with having a conversation with me.

"What were you two doing just now?" Soren looked down at me with cold, bitter eyes as he said this, though the suddenly became a lot softer as they met mine.

"I-I was just giving his fruit back to him! I accidentally ran into him and he dropped it! I-I swear!" My voice was desperate and quakey as I felt tears form in the corners of my eyes. I could feel the slightest sharp pain stinging my back as he continues to hold me like this. Though the stinging pain isn't the only thing I feel.

During my time in the Healers Kin Tree my clothing was altered so my back was exposed. This allowed the medicine to be applied directly, without needing to take off my clothing. Though During my time there I realized that my shoes and socks were long gone, leaving me only with my underwear. This was fine for me because the cut made to the fabric was large and made the animal tunic I was wearing loose. My bra was the only thing protecting me from peeping eyes at this point. But it didn't do me any favors when it came to how Soren was holding me.

His hand had slipped into the exposed areas of bandaged flesh, wrapping around my waist and holding me tight. With how hard he was griping my waist I almost past out in embarrassment and fear. I tried pushing again  and in mixture of embarrassment, fear and tears I tried to calm him down.

"S-Soren...?" My voice quaked again as I continued to stare into his angry eyes that slowly became softer. He eventually threw the male in his grasp to the ground and loosened his grip around me enough for me to push off. I stood my Sorens side for a while as I heartbreakingly watch as the male tried to grasp for air and collect himself. I wanted to walk over and help the male but the fear of not knowing what Soren may do left me frozen in place.

Or it could be of what I do know of Soren that stops me. Soren can easily break my bones like twigs and tear me in half like it was nothing. It could be because of witnessing him strangle and almost kill a male without a second thought. It could also be that I know some of the details from his past, learning it from Brynn. Knowing he could not only kill a person but doing so in a slow, agonizing way could be what keeps me grounded.

I shut my eyes and try to turn my head as the male continued to grasp for breath. "..I...I-I'm..cough...cough..." The male tries to apologize, continuing to squirm on the ground. I can't help but have silent tears escape me as I try to shuffle my cries. Soren had notice my sudden apprehension to be close to him and had taken hold of my wrist in a tight grip. His gaze, however, was shapely locked onto the male on the ground. Those eyes seeming empty but glinting in a dark purple sparks.

"I-I'm sorry Soren! P-please spare me..." The male quivered in fear as his raspy voice tried to remain calm. Soren didn't care for the apology and started to walk away with me in tow. Right as we were about to leave Soren eyed one of the fruits the male had dropped when being strangled and paused slightly. He lifted his foot and, without any effort, crushed the fruit leaving behind a bright red, sticky fruit splatter. That was the last of it as he continued to march off and drag me along to somewhere else in the colony.
