Here goes another chapter. Ok, I might put in a few D/N fluff in here. I don't write much romance, but I'll try for all those D/N fluff fans.

Disclaimer: I own nothing but Kalita and Rajani. You know this is really getting annoying.

The Tiger Lady

Chapter 3

Daine and Alanna returned to the room with a plate full of food, only to find Kalita asleep and Numair watching her. Daine started to feel funny at this sight; she did let her husband stay in a room with a girl he barely knew. What is this feeling? She hasn't felt this feeling in a long time. "We should let her sleep." Alanna said behind her. Daine nodded and smiled as Numair looked up at them. He only just noticed them. He smiled and got up, walking over to Daine, he wrapped his arms around her.

Daine giggled and whispered in his ear, "Stop Numair, we should leave this room and let her sleep peacefully."

"I don't know if she is sleeping peacefully, she kept tossing and turning, as if she was having a terrible dream. But I think no matter how bad the dream is, she isn't going to wake up for a while," he replied.

Daine nodded and Alanna set the plate on a table by the bed, and then headedut the door to give Kalita privacy. Daine and Numair followed her to the library.

As soon as they settled down in the library chairs, Daine spoke out first, "There is something strange about Kalita. She's skinny, really skinny. But she looks as though she did have a small meal not to long ago, but I don't think it was decent."

"I think your right. We'll have to find a way to get her to sleep more; I've never seen anyone that tired." Numair replied.

"She doesn't seem trusting, it's like she doesn't spend much time with people." Alanna said.

Numair sighed, "Well, one of us should check on her."

"I will. I would like to check on her." Daine suggested.

"Okay. You should check on her in a few hours." Numair smiled at his love.

Daine smiled and took his hands, pulling him up. "Let's walk."

"Alright," he said, following her.

Holding on to Numair's hand, Daine took him through the halls, for no reason, just to be with him.

"Numair?"

"Hm?"

"What do you think happened to our new friend? Kalita? I mean, she doesn't remember," Daine asked.

"I don't know, Sweet, but I don't think we'll find out soon." Numair replied, pulling Daine outside, back to the beach. "Where were we?"

Daine giggled and gripped his hand tighter. "I think we were just walking."

"Well then, let's sit somewhere." Numair pulled her over to a large rock and sat her down on it, tilting her face up with his large hand. He looked into her twinkling eyes and smiled. "You're so beautiful." He said as he leaned down and gently pressed his lips against hers, giving her a passionate kiss. Daine smiled and kissed him back.

Back in Kalita's room, the young girl awoke from her sleep, shaking. Her dreams are the reason why she hasn't slept, but she knew that she would end up sleeping some day; her tiredness would catch up with her. Never the less, she felt better than she has in weeks, even months. She rolled on her back and looked to her side at the table. She sat up when she saw the food, and took the plate. She does eat, she doesn't have any reason not to, but her tiger hunts for her, and tigers don't hunt as much as humans, because one large prey can last weeks at a time. Kalita ate quietly, thankful for the food and the kind people who gave her the food, along with the roof over her head.

A knock on the door got Rajani to growl. "Please, Kalita, can I come in?" a male's voice said from the other side.

"Who is there?" Kalita said cautiously.

"A friend." The voice replied.

"I have no friends here," Kalita snapped.

"Fine, then, I'm George. I'm married to Alanna, the lady knight with copper hair who gave you this room."

"Whatever, I don't care. But I warn you, if you harm me, I can't do anything to stop my tiger from attacking you."

"Alright," George said as he opened the door and came in. George had a muscular build and hazel eyes.

Rajani stared at George with golden eyes, baring his teeth, his tail twitching. The tiger moved closer to Kalita, ready to protect if needed. Kalita ran her fingers through his soft, striped fur.

"Why are you here?" Kalita asked, narrowing her eyes.

"I have come to find you some clothes. Do you want some new clothes? You look like you need some." George replied.

"Fine," Kalita said, rather annoyed at someone looking out for her.

"Come with me then." George held out his hand, Kalita took it and let him pull her out of bed. She stumbled and could barely stand; George supported her and helped her walk. He led her out the room and down the hall. Rajani, of course, followed them.

George led them into a large room, so Kalita can get fitted. He gave her to one of the fitters and told them to help her walk, since she's a bit weak. The fitter led Kalita into another room and measured her.

When Kalita came out, she wore men's breeches and a white shirt. She smiled, liking this better than the skirt and green shirt she wears. George looked her over and nods his approval. She looks great.

"Come little one; let's get you back to your room," George said softly.

"If you don't mind, can you show me around your place?" Kalita asked.

"Well, sure." He said as he walked her down the halls once more, for a tour.

Sorry for the lack of D/N fluff. I didn't know what else to write. If anyone wants fluff, if you'd please, give me some ideas, or the fluff will just end up short.
