This Temper Runs In Your Kind

At the Crack of Dawn, Aureus opened his eyes. He could not sleep but only had his eyes closed. He was exhausted due to attacks of strong black magic on him and his body wished to give up to rest but he could not and fought with it. 

How could he sleep when the one he wanted to protect was still unconscious and he was not sure if they had passed the danger? Though this elf had helped them, he still could not trust him entirely. He didn't wish to trust anyone until he took Seren back to the Crystal Palace. 

Seren's delicate body pressed against his warm body and his majestic wings wrapped around her, her body no longer felt cold to him and he was sure she could make it back to the Crystal Palace. 

'We shall leave from here. Once I take her back, I will have Lady Tyra heal her. I am sure she can.'
