15 Three Months Later

Feeling the heat upon her skin. Black strains of her hair dancing in the wind. Staring at his back. Her brown rise as she spoke, "How far Northeast are we supposed to go." He stares up at the sky. Watching as the clouds go by. "I'm not sure. The Queen only said head northeast." He stops in his track. Lost in thoughts. Winter didn't take into count that he would stop running.

"I was careless in not ask about where Northeast. We're supposed to go." Sighing to himself.

He crosses his arms across his chest. Thinking deeply. We alone been traveling together for a good three months. He turns, staring at her for a moment. Watches her in silence. Engrave every inch of her being within his soul. He couldn't understand why. Why was he drawn to turn her? He only knew her for nine months. Scratches his head. Six of those months don't count. She was in a coma. All he did was guard her. Without hesitation.

Raine felt he was going insane. What was driving this action? These emotions. Even these three months alone with her. Felt his limits were being pushed. He has only been with her for three months. They spoke talk very little. Yet he yearns for her. Yet every so often hears a voice telling him. He must protect her at all costs. He couldn't understand. He wanted it all to stop. This wasn't him. Yet he felt he was being subdued by emotion these emotions were driving him insane.

Hears a soft voice calling out his name. Raine shakes his head as he sees the woman standing before him. Her long black hair. Dances within the wind. Her deep blue eyes spark in the light.

Shock, he turns around with the image of her body embedded within his head.

"Sorry Winter, I was perplexed for a moment. It should be best if continue ongoing Northeast." He says as he walks forward.

Standing in a daze for a moment.

"Mmm," she says walking behind him. Feeling her ears burning. Winter pulls her hair over her ears.

Lost in thought, questioning her every action. His looks charmed her.

Sighs to herself. Feeling something wasn't right. Why did she stare at him so long for him and end up whisper his name?

Winter knew the second she woke up she had urges turns this man, but why? She doesn't divulge in conversation with him. So why she does she get lost in these feeling.

What are these feelings? She doesn't even remember who she is. Why is she going around with these pack up emotion for a man? He a stranger… yet why does he feel familiar to me?

Not take much attention to her surrounding. Winter walking into Raine's back who squandered in his thoughts again.

Raine's body goes stiff. As Winter steps back. He turns his head "Are you alright back there?"

She perks up her head. Her hair covers her face, hiding it. Winter turns red. She felt her chest ready to explode. Mumbles to herself within her mind, as what are these emotions?

The sensation touch of his body against her sent a shock through her body. She felt as if she was going insane. She stuttered, "I'm okay" walk past him.

Raine watches as she speeds past him in a daze. Shaking his head, "You shouldn't go up to far. Where in unknown territory" he stares at her as she walks past him. Noticing her bright red ear peeking out from her hair. Only to swallow back his words.

"Are you sure okay, Winter?" He walks turns her to catch up turns her.

Winter took a deep breath. Pushes her hair back and turning to look at him, stopping in her tracks. "Yesh, I'm fine. I'm sorry for not paying attention." She breathes once more and turns around with her back facing him. Winter decided at that very moment she had to get control of these emotions at all costs.

Raine nods his head.

He looks at his surroundings once again and was in shock.

"Winter, did we just enter a forest?"
