Chapter Twenty-five

v^v^v~Somewhere out in space~v^v^v

"You are not going anywhere, princess!"

"Let me go! You have no idea Rou-"

"No, YOU have no idea…I won't loose you again…"

"KUUSSSOOOO!"

A punch to the face, a knee to the groin, an upper cut from him that sent me flying.

I got up and watched as the King's focus was broken by the Princess' own smaller, weaker blast. "Kamehamehaaa!" was all I heard over the dull ringing in my head. The Princess' small blast broke the King's focus long enough for the foreign saiyan's larger ki wave to over power the King's right before my eyes, then the Princess fled to her comrades. I watched the tall foreigner place a hand on her shoulder and that bastard prince lace his fingers with hers then-

They all instantly vanished.

"Kamehamehaaa!" *Feminine chuckles...*

"Kamehamehaaa!" *Girly giggles…*

"Kamehamehaaa!" *More laughter* Her laughter! Laughing at me!

"KAMEHAMEHAAA! ! ! !"

*Kamehamehaaa!* Rou's eyes popped open and he sat up to the Princess' ringing voice in his head, his boots falling from the console where he had them propped while daydreaming. He looked around the control room and saw no one was around, then he shook his head again at his dream. Was it my dream? He was not sure. Dammit Yume! You better NOT be messing with me again!

He glared out the window, agitated that the space travel would take so long. He wanted to be there NOW! No telling what lies that false Prince was filling the Princess' head with.

He sighed, and punched in a command on the control panel. A display popped up and informed him of the date and time…still over a month to go…dammit!

He got up, stretched, cracked his neck then headed down to the ship's lower deck which housed a large training room. If he wasn't sleeping or eating, he was training. Anything to beat that bastard.

When he reached the ship's hull, he jogged around the room for several dozen laps, then paused to punch in a code on a command console. A round disc dropped away in the center of the floor as a large, solid, cylindrical rod started rising up from the hole of the floor. It telescoped up and up, stopping at a height of six feet. It was six inches in diameter, and as soon as it came to a stop, Rou lashed out, connecting hard with it's polished steel surface over and over again, numbing his fists, forearms, shins, and thighs from the pain.

Never again will I be so humiliated.

As he trained with military like routine, his mind wandered back to his last battle. His mind kept playing the same few scenes over and over again, tormenting him into a rage.

*…"you have no idea, Rou"-*

Punch, punch, kick, kick, uppercut.

*…"I can't loose you again!"-*

Kick, kick, punch, back kick, punch, punch, knee.

*…"KUSSOOO!"-*

Rou growled in anger as his voice rang in his ear. Punch, knee, uppercut, punch, knee, uppercut. Punch. PUNCH.

*…"KAMEHAMEHA!"-*

Punch, punch, punch, punch, kick, punch, kick, spinning back kick.

*-vanish-*

"Rrwwwaaarrrhhhhhaaaa!" He bellowed, as he spun back around and pummeled the unyielding metal rod fast and hard until his fists were bloody and his legs throbbed painfully. He panted hard, straightened his back and held one shaky hand out at the rod. A green ki energy began to form there, slow at first, then gradually growing with intensity. His nostrils flared with his angry, labored breathing as he thought again about the same few scenes. With a deep grunt, he closed his fist on the energy and clenched it tightly shut, symbolically portraying how he felt about ki energy versus physical strength.

He tried hard not to rely on his ki energy alone, and truthfully he hardly ever used it. He had perfected a few good techniques that served a good purpose, like his Aura Cannon, which could immobilize an opponent, but it took so long to pull off, that he often found that the ability to pulverize with a single punch was a far greater advantage over being able to blast a beam farther or wider. Because of this, he put very little training into ki blasts and focused more on brute strength alone.

He grabbed a canteen of water near the central control panel, downing two-thirds of it in a span of a few seconds before wiping his mouth with the back of his hand, barely clutching the canteen with a shaky, bloody fist.

It was then that he noticed someone standing in the doorway watching him. His labored breathing turned to a disgruntled sigh as he turned and faced the doorway, dropping the canteen on the control panel and glaring.

"What do you want," he managed to pant out. Adrenaline flowed through his body and he glared at her, flexing his knuckles to dull the throbbing ache in his fractured hands. Blood tricked between the web of his fingers from various cuts and scrapes.

"Just watching you beat the shit out of yourself. You want to spar with a REAL opponent, or are you content to keep punching that stupid metal pole?" Tsukemono asked casually, although he almost never sparred with her anymore. Still, she was hopeful.

Rou chuckled darkly, "I would, if you WERE a worth opponent. As it stands, I can learn more from this rod then from you." He gave her a sinister sideways smirk, knowing his comment would goad her into anger.

Tsukemono grit her teeth, then launched into the room at Rou, furious.

*How DARE you say something like that!*

Rou's smile widened as he caught her fist headed for his jaw and heard her thought to him. He easily blocked her knee to the groin, then wrenched her captured arm and elbow backwards behind her back, spinning her around in the process. He stepped forward several paces then shoved her roughly up against the wall of the ship's hull.

He pressed into her, his ragged breath fanned against her left ear and side of her face. She growled in anger as she tried to push away from the wall with her free hand. He didn't budge. She then became keenly aware of his position behind her.

"See there? I can easily overtake you every time, Tsuke. And do you want to know why?" He ground his hips against her backside as he ran his tongue around her earlobe, eliciting a moan of desire from his prey.

She sighed, defeated.

"Because you don't want to hurt me, do you? No...no, my love….in fact, you want to be right here…isn't that right?" His voice was husky and deep as he purred in her ear. Tsukemono could only whimper as she wiggled underneath his crushing weight, also rubbing against all of him she could shamelessly. She had always liked the captain, even if he was gruff and mean to her. She was attracted to his strength and dominance, and was gratefully being reminded of that now.

"H-h-hai, captain, I-I do - oohh!" She managed to get out as he let go of her arm and grabbed her hips with his hands.

The captain's bloody knuckles split open wider at his tightened grip. He pulled her up and into his hard length over and over, her thin leggings providing little protection.

Tsukemono braced her hands on the wall and threw her head back against the captain's shoulder as he dry humped her against the wall. She felt his canines scrape the juncture of her bare neck and shoulder and she shuddered with a moan, urging him to bite down. She sighed as he chuckled darkly, his tongue lashing out to lick her neck instead.

"Rou, please…uh-mm!" He cut her off by grabbing her throat with his right hand and pulling her head up and back roughly before crashing his lips down on hers. She whimpered as his teeth smashed against hers painfully, but her tongue sought his immediately. She could smell his sweat and blood, and felt herself become even more aroused.

Rou let his tongue fill her mouth, mingle with hers, then he abruptly pulled back, released her head, and pushed away from her. He stood back, still panting from exertion, frustration, and anger. He watched as Tsukemono pushed off the wall and turned to him, her eyes wide with questions and her cheeks flushed with passion. She stood up straight and braced her feet apart on the floor. Her tail twitched sporadically behind her.

"I need you to do something for me, Tsukemono." Rou stood tall and his face turned to that of a stoic, neutral mask, his breathing finally evening out.

Tsukemono look over at the captain skeptically, "What? What do you want now?" She tried to sound nonchalant, but it came out a bit petulant.

"I want you to teach me to protect my thoughts." He stared her down, his cerulean eyes diving into the depths of her light grey orbs.

Tsukemono scoffed and rolled her eyes at what she thought was his attempt to control her, "Tsk, you can't mind bend a Dreamweaver, hahaha, baka!" She chuckled lightheartedly at him.

Rou grit his teeth at her feminine laughter. It was so eerily similar to the laughter in his dream, that it caused the repeating sequence to play again in his mind. *Kamehamehaa!*

His eyes narrowed at her, "Did YOU put that…that torment in my head?" He took a step forward and his hand flashed out and gripped her neck, raising her up off her feet with one fractured hand. He grit his teeth at the pain that shot through his arm, but he did not focus on it.

"DID you?!" He growled, his grip tightening.

Tsukemono's laughter died and her eyes widened as she struggled in his grasp; her windpipe was slowly being crushed. She clawed at his arm as she shook her head as much as she could, her eyes hard on his face- *No! I don't know what you mean! Don't….don't do this-*

Rou squinted his eyes more before releasing her, her pleading thoughts invading his mind. He stepped back as she dropped to one knee coughing and rubbing her throat. He squatted down on his haunches, pushed her dark hair aside, found her chin and placed his thumb and forefinger there, gently lifting her watery gaze to his somber, unemotional face.

"You will teach me. I must protect my thoughts from her, your sister, or I could end up her slave. You don't want that, do you?" His eyes searched hers for any hint of defiance this time.

Tsukemono could not lower her head from his grip, but her gaze shifted down to a spot on the floor between his boots and her knee. She sighed, "No, of course not. I will teach you how, captain." Her voice was low and humbled.

Rou shook her chin until her gaze rose to his face again. His eyes widened briefly, then he nodded curtly, "Good. Come to my room later tonight, but, for now, I would like to continue my training here. Alone."

He let go of her chin and rose tall above her, his eyes shifting over her form as she stood up in front of him; her cheeks were flushed, her eyes red rimmed. She still looked him directly in the eyes, looking for any hint of emotions. When she found nothing, she dared not try his mind, so she turned with a huff and stomped out of the room. At least I will get to be alone with him again later, she thought as she walked to her quarters, smiling a sad smile to herself as fantasies played through her mind, teasing her of a life that would surly never be.

v^v^~Earth~v^v^

Reina walked behind Goku in awe of her surroundings. Eventually they stopped in a elegant, open room with three people standing in it. She recognized Piccolo, the green skinned Namekian, but the other two were new to her. The smaller green alien looked also like a Namekian, but the other guy was a rotund, dark skinned man with round eyes and full lips. She advanced into the room behind Goku and waited to be introduced.

"Hey, Dende, this is Reina, the Saiyan princess I was telling you about! Seems she had some questions for you, hahaha!" Goku said as he addressed the small green alien next to Piccolo. Goku then turned to her and gestured for her to move forward. Reina stepped around Goku shyly and waved, "Uhh, hello there."

Goku chuckled at her nervousness, "Oh, no need to shy! He may be Kami of Earth, but he's pretty easy going, hahahaha!" He clapped Reina on the back and grinned.

Reina looked back at the small green alien and her eyes widened. Kami of Earth?!

Dende put his hands up in the air defensively, "Oh, I can see the surprise in your eyes, but it is ok. It's nice to officially meet you, Princess Kyuri. I have been watching you for some time, and have been told a lot about you from our mutual friend here. This is Mr. Popo," He said, nodding towards the short, dark skinned man standing on the other side of him. Reina bowed slightly, shocked he used her saiyan name, "Well, it is certainly nice to meet you both."

Dende looked to Goku, "Are you SURE she is a Saiyan? Her attitude is closer to yours then Vegeta's," he laughed lightheartedly knowing full well of the validity of her heritage.

Goku chuckled along with him, "Yeah, she is. She lost her memories and was raised on Earth just like I was," his grin broadened.

Dende advanced towards them, Piccolo shadowing him instantly. He stopped in front of Reina and looked up at her. He motioned with his head subtly for her to kneel down. She did, taking a knee in front of him. He whispered conspiratorially, "Is it true you can read minds?" His face lit up as he waited.

She smiled, "Yes, it is. I can also send thoughts," her smile broadened, *like this...*

Dende's eyes widened. He looked up to Piccolo behind him, "Did you hear that?"

Piccolo raised an eyebrow, "Yeah, she said she can send thoughts, big deal."

"No, no, but she sent one to my head...oh never mind," he looked back at the female Saiyan, "you ARE special. Come over here and sit, we have many things to discuss." He turned and walked back into the room. Reina rose, glanced a Goku, then to the other two in the room before advancing after the small green Kami to a couple of chairs near a large balcony window. They sat as Mr. Popo left to bring up some tea as they began a long discussion on Reina's past and Dende's training idea.

^v^v^v^v^v

Vegeta finished his breakfast, angry the whole time at the girl for her disrespect and defiance. He grumbled around the kitchen as he cleaned up, then flopped down in front of the television, intent on not doing anything until the woman came back and apologized.

After an hour or so of mindless television, Vegeta began to become restless. He decided to hell with waiting, he was going to go train.

He flipped off the television and rose from the couch to go get his clothes.

As he entered the guest room, his senses were bombarded by sex, flowers, and pheromones. He grit his teeth and furrowed his brow, inhaling deep before trudging in to get his training outfit. Images of her laying naked before him, and him shackled to her bed sprang forth in his mind and he ground his teeth in anger. He grabbed his bag and left the room after deciding to take a shower to wash her smell off of him. No need for unnecessary distractions, he thought as he made his way to the shower.

He turned the faucet on and stepped out of his boxers, kicking them aside. He took a slow, meditative shower as his exchange with the princess played back in his mind.

*…"I can do whatever I want!"*

The water beat down over his upturned face. Stubborn woman…

*…"You don't control me!"*

He frowned, running his hands through his soggy hair. I do not want to control you, I want to lov- he refused to finish that thought.

*…"I would be content too…"*

He scoffed as he closed his eyes and subconsciously sought after her ki. He found it and after a few seconds, his eyes shot open and flashed with anger.

She was at the lookout.

She was with Kakkarott.

His hand reached out and shut off the faucet. He ground his teeth as he stepped out of the shower and dried off haphazardly. She wouldn't dare…..

He donned his spandex and ran a towel through his damp hair. It would dry on the flight to the tower, which he was embarking on. Right. Now.

V^v^v^v^v^

"Soo, can you show me the room? I am so excited to train in there!" An excited Reina asked as she hopped up from her seat to stretch. They had been talking for over an hour now.

"Yeah, come on, it's this way," the small green skinned God said as he too rose and started walking out of the room. Piccolo, Goku and Reina all followed.

"So you've been in there before, you said, right Goku?" Reina asked as they mounted a large spiral stair case.

Goku seemed lost in thought, then turned to her, "Huh? Oh! Yeah! Yeah, Gohan and I went in a few years ago to train for a bit." He smiled wide as Reina glanced back at him, still following behind Piccolo and Dende.

Reina nodded methodically, "Cool. Well, I for one and really excited to get to train for a YEAR, and in just ONE DAY! Amazing!" She smiled brightly at the thought of training. Her smile faded as a certain prince's words came back to her mind. *"You will train with me in there, it will be fun…"*

She sighed, reminded of her fight with him, then steeled her resolve as they peaked at the top of the stairs.

Down the long hallway was a closed, plain white door. Dende gestured towards it, "Well, here it is. Not really impressive or anything, just a door, hahaha!"

Goku turned away, his eyes closed momentarily then flew open. "Uh-oh," he said warily.

Reina looked at him, then closed her eyes to try and sense what he did. Her eyes popped back open seconds later and she chewed her lower lip nervously.

Vegeta was coming.

"Ugh, stubborn man! No doubt he searched for my ki and is pissed that I am up here. Do you know he told me I COULDN'T go train with you?" Reina asked Goku incredulously.

Goku chuckled warmly, "I told you so." He smiled at her a knowing smile.

Reina rolled her eyes, "Ugh, he is infuriating. What do you say we go in now and start training, BEFORE he gets here," she asked, pleading and mischief in her eyes.

Goku gave her a weary look, "I don't know, he would be awfully mad if we just go in there, 'specially since he wants you to himself…" he trailed off in thought, then spoke again, " Then there's Chi Chi too…she'll have a fit if I went and trained with a hot, young female for a year…"

Reina felt her cheeks heat up at his nonchalant comment, then decided to ignore it. "Aww, come on, Goku. You are such a strong fighter! You know I want to know EVERYTHING you know! Please please PLEASE come with me!" She looked at him with a cheeky grin, "Besides, I know you can't resist the urge to spar with me. I AM a powerful opponent after all," she bit her lip in apprehension at his response.

Goku chuckled at her spirt and thought, what the hell? Vegeta won't be mad forever…and Chi Chi won't be either…it's only a day…

"Yosh! We should hurry though, he is getting closer. I need to go grab some clothes and things from my house real quick. You should too." Without another word, he vanished.

Reina looked to the two Namekians, "Can you guys hold Vegeta off for a bit? I will be right back." She placed two fingers on her forehead and disappeared before either had a chance to refuse.

Piccolo looked down at Dende, "Well, this should be interesting." Dende smiled and they both made their way back to the front of the lookout to wait for an angry saiyan to arrive.

v^v^v^v^v

Vegeta flew out the girl's bedroom window and sped towards the lookout. As he flew, he ground his teeth in apprehension. Do not do it. Do NOT go in there with that fool…I'll kill him….I swear I will this time!

He flew faster yet, anxious to get there. He was nearing the base of the tower when he felt her ki energy vanish. He paused, closed his eyes and felt it had moved. He stopped mid flight, feeling for her energy. It wad back in the city again. Maybe she went back home after all? He felt for his rival's ki. It was at his house in the woods. Vegeta frowned in thought. For a few minutes, he contemplated his next move while he floated closer to the tower. While he was thinking, both energy's winked out and converged back to the tower above him about a minute apart. He growled, No!

He shot straight up, parallel to the base of the tower, up and up. Soon, he emerged from above the clouds and jetted towards the palace doors.

He past the Namekians standing on the landing and flew into the palace, determined to find and stop the Princess from entering that room. He flew up the stairs, aware of Piccolo's yelling from behind him. He reached the top of the stairs, landed and froze.

There was no one there. KUU-SSSOOOO!

v^v^v~Somewhere out in space~v^v^v

Rou left the medical ward with bandages on his hands and walked past the soldier's barracks, stopping by to say good night to his men, before retiring to his own private room. He had trained all afternoon, and after supper, had finally decided to call it quits. He ate, then sought medical attention, showered, and was now laying on his bed, in a pair of tight navy blue sleep shorts his hands laced behind his head in thought. Where are you, Princess? What are you doing now…?

There was a quiet rap rap rap on his door some time later. Rou's eyes popped open and he sat up, rubbing sleep frim his eyes. Must of dozed off…

He rose and took two long strides across the small space to open the door. Tsukemono stood in the doorway. Her eyes lifting to meet his gaze, then plummeting to the floor again, "You said to come by later…is this a good time?" She asked quietly, her eyes rising up long enough to scan his bare chest before returning to the floor.

Rou smirked at her cowardly form, "This is as good a time as any. Come in." He stepped aside and allowed her to pass next to him before shutting the door and turning to her.

Tsukemono glanced around the small space, then crossed her arms and turned back to the captain, "So? Here I am. Let's get this over with." She sat down on his bed and made herself comfortable. *Ok, I am in your head….what do you do?*

"I do not know, that is why you are here." He grumbled as her thoughts invaded her mind. He stood by the door glowering.

*Try to think about facts- your height, weight, age...things like that….I cannot find information if you are actively telling me information, even useless information.*

Rou's eyes widened and he nodded once. Tsukemono's probing mind started picking up on useless information, just like that, moments later. She smiled, *Yes, that is it. Keep that up, and she will not be able to pull things from your mind.*

"What, that's it? That seems incredibly simple," Rou stated matter of factly.

Tsukemono shrugged, "It is simple if you know about it, but you have to train yourself to do it second nature, because you never know when someone will be looking…" She probed his mind again, hoping to catch him off guard. She did, and she found many thoughts of her little sister before he started in with trivia from their planet. She scoffed, "Yup, you get the idea." She rose from the bed to leave.

Rou blocked her path and looked over at her and smiled devilishly, "I suppose I should reward you for teaching me," he eyed her hungrily.

Tsukemono's heart fluttered as she stared at him, caught off guard momentarily. She advanced forward another step cautiously. "Is that so, Captain?"

Rou nodded slowly as he stepped forward, grabbed her shoulders, dipped his head down and captured her lips in a soft, passionate kiss.

Tsukemono melted into him. Her hands rose to his broad bare chest, splaying out to cover as much surface area as she could. Her tongue sought his, and they both moaned and groaned at the same time. This was not their first sexual escapade, but one in a long string of tension between the two.

Rou gripped her hips and pulled her up on his waist and her legs wrapped tight around his body. Her twitchy tail twined with his as he stepped forward, turned to the side and slammed her up against the metal wall, grunting as she tightened her grip around him. He pulled away from her lips and his mouth descended to her neck and throat, spreading quick, chaste kisses there. Tsukemono groaned as she wiggled against his waist, rubbing against his growing hard on.

"Invade my thoughts," he husked into her ear, his chest rumbling with every syllable. His mouth continued to nibble and kiss her neck. Tsukemono bit her lip and tried.

*…I like that you always want to fuck me…*

She groaned and nodded her head vigorously, her hands trailing over his shoulders and up into his hair.

*…I do not have to be a Dreamweaver to tell what you want…*

She pushed against the wall to steady herself so she could loosen her legs, then she dipped her toes down to push at the waistband of his shorts.

*…Your desire for me has not gone unnoticed, Tsuke….*

Tsukemono bit her lip and clawed at his back, "Yes, Captain, yes!"

Rou chuckled darkly as he turned and flung her on the bed. He took a step back and stepped out of his shorts, his desire self evident.

Tsukemono looked down his bulgy, chiseled body, her eyes lingering between his legs. She smiled wide as her gaze returned to his face. Her cheeks flushed ever so slightly as she pushed her leggings down and off, her top too. She was left bare on his bed, her tail rising in the air behind her in a suggestive manner as she licked her lips in anticipation, "Take me, Captain," she managed just above a whisper.

Rou grinned again and stalked towards the bed. Their eyes locked and both had the same look of lust and desire there.

He gripped her knees and thrust them apart, pushing her back onto the large bed as he climbed up and settled between her legs. His head dipped down and he kissed her right knee, then he dragged his tongue down her leg to her toes. He suckled her big toe into his mouth as he placed her leg on his right shoulder.

Tsukemono gripped the bedsheets as he repeated this process with her left leg just before he plunged inside of her. She quivered as he filled her, and cried out in pleasure, thrusting her hips up to meet his.

"Right there. Oh, that's the spot, isn't it," he groaned as he picked up the pace. Tsukemono only cried out louder, "Yes, yes, don't stop – oh!"

He caught her off guard by suddenly dropped her legs and grabbed her hips. He pulled out long enough to flip her over to her hands and knees. He grabbed two handfuls of her ass and kneaded them roughly apart as he plunged himself back into her warm core. She all but screamed her approval.

He reached down and wrapped a bandaged hand around the base of her tail, rubbing it roughly. Tsukemono whimpered as he continued pumping into her smooth and quick over and over.

Rou grit his teeth, enjoying himself, but he found his mind wandering to Kyuri's smiling face. His shook his head and refocused on the woman underneath him. He panted with desire as he quickened his pace, wanting badly to find release.

Tsukemono bit her lip and moaned as the object of her desire ravished her relentlessly. She rocked back into him, close to her climax. She reached down and flicked two fingers hard against her own nub of pleasure, sighing heavily as she rocked back into him.

Rou felt her muscles tighten around him and knew his impromptu partner was close to climax. He pulled her hips tight against him and rode her hard until she screamed in ecstasy. Rou leaned down and scraped his teeth against the junction of her shoulder and neck on the left side. He nuzzled against her neck, still thrusting softly into her.

Tsukemono panted hard, overcome by passion. She longed for the captain to claim her, but knew by now it was wishful thinking.

Rou found his mouth suckling at her neck and abruptly pulled back, frowning. He slowed his pace as his mind became cloudy and fuzzy. He felt like someone was in it. He could just make out a faint whisper, niggling at the back of his mind, *What are you doing? You cannot claim her, no…you want another, remember? Oh ho hee hee hee…*

Rou grit his teeth at the old woman's voice crooned in his mind. He pulled out of Tsukemono and she turned to him, her face falling at his knitted brows.

Tsukemono opened her mouth to ask him what was wrong, but he turned abruptly and scooted off the bed, walking towards his discarded shorts.

"Rou, what is the matter? Get back up here and let me finish with you," She tried sweetly.

Rou ignored her and stepped into his shorts, pulling them up and settling them over his diminishing hard on. He turned to her, flustered and panting, "Get out. Now."

Tsukemono felt tears prick her eyes, but she held them back, focusing on her anger instead. She probed his mind briefly and found conflicted, tormented thoughts of her and her sister. She frowned deep as she grabbed her clothes and quickly dressed.

"It's about Kyuri, isn't it?" She asked cautiously to his back. She saw his muscles bunch as he tensed, then turned to her and growled low, "It is none of your business."

"Rou…why won't you-"

"Don't. Don't ask me again. You know why." He glared at her, knowing she wanted more from him. He crossed his arms tight across his broad chest, a gesture he did when he was through arguing or closing a discussion topic.

Tsukemono's eyes narrowed and she threw her hands up in disgust, "Fine. Whatever, not like I care or anything…" she trailed off, but her pride was hurt. What did her sister have to offer the Captain that she herself could not?

Tsukemono stomped out of the room with only a brief glance back at the captain's unmoved back. She left and went back to her own private quarters and slammed the door before flopping down on her bed and allowing her tears to flow freely. Why? Why does he love HER? I would make an EXCELLENT mate to him!

She cried silently into her pillow, asking it many of the same unanswered questions she had her whole life until she finally fell asleep some time later. Her dreams that night were visited by an unexpected visitor.
