Chapter 8
Duo was dressing when Heero came back into their room. "Oh you brought food, yeay." Duo said, bouncing on his feet. For once he felt completely safe, and happy. Heero was with him and they were safe from Relena. Heero kissed the bouncing boy and sat on the bed with the tray, motioning for Duo to do the same.
Duo did what Heero wanted and kissed him again before digging into the food.
"MMm, this is almost as good as you're kisses." Duo said with a smile. Heero blushed and began to eat as well.

"He's a tiger." Trowa said, downstairs.
"Yes he is." Wufei answered. "Does that matter?"
"No, not particularly. There strong, a lot of people in Elfour are going to be a little worried about him. Specially around the new moon, do you know if he has control over himself?" Trowa asked.
"No, I think he might need help with that." Wufei said as he sat down at a table and ordered some tea.
Trowa nodded. "Then I can help him with that, but I will need you're help. I'm strong, but Heero will be stronger then me. Does he have a mate?" Trowa asked, he had smelled the sex on him, but that could only mean that he had mated, not that he had a Mate.
"I'm not sure. I have not been with them long." Wufei blushed and grabbed his tea as a woman set it on the table.
"Them?"
"He was travailing with an elf when I met him. Duo should be up in the room with him." Wufei said as he sipped his tea.
"I see." Trowa said. "I will go and have a talk with them. If the elf is his mate then there are a few things that he should be warned about, not to mention his help would be needed." Trowa said and stood to leave.
Heero picked up a strawberry and put it to Duo's lips. Duo took it into his mouth, making sure to lick Heero's fingers as he did so...He chocked on it however when the door opened and Trowa walked in. Heero glared, let out a low growl because Trowa had not knocked, as he went to Duo's aid.
Trowa just ignored him. "We have things to talk about before we leave." He said.
"Duo, this is Trowa." Heero sat back down on the bed.
"Okay, well thanks for knocking." Duo said, catching his breath.
Heero sent another glare at Trowa. "What do you want lion?"
"I was talking with Wufei and he said that you can not control yourself on the new moon, is that information correct?" Trowa asked.
Heero's ears flatted in shame and his eyes found a spot on the floor.
"You can't come barging into someone's room and start accusing them of stuff." Duo said walking towards Trowa. (Trowa's going to be slightly mean right now, but he has reasons) Trowa bared his teeth slightly in a growl towards Duo, smelling the demon in his blood. Heero was between them before either of them had even seen him move. He pushed Duo behind himself. He let out a loud growl showing off his sharp teeth.
Trowa smiled knowingly. "So is this you're chosen Mate?" Trowa asked. Duo lifted an eye brow, and looked at Heero in question.
"If he is willing..." Heero did not back down.
"What does that mean?" Duo asked. Unsure of exactly what a mate was. "Is that like dating or something?"
Trowa laughed. "No it's a little deeper then that." Trowa said. At the uncertainty in Duo's voices Heero ears dropped and he turned to him.
"We would be together to share our life, bonded to only each other." He looked at Duo hopping he would not reject him.
"Really." Duo said sounding rather excited. "Does that mean I get to have you forever." Duo said, wrapping his arms around Heero and looking at him with a smile. Heero nodded his ears perking back up. Oh how he hopped Duo would say yes.
"One condition." Duo said, his lips close to Heero's.
"Hn?" Heero asked
"You give me those ears and tail, every so often." Duo said with a kiss and a smile. Heero blushed and nodded. He had forgotten Trowa was even there.
"Then yes I'm his Mate." Duo said to Trowa. Trowa nodded. "Good then you can help me show him how to control his power at the full moon." Heero's blush deepened. How had he forgotten Trowa had been in the room.
"Now Heero, well be leaving at 12, we need to get to Fang before nightfall." Trowa said. "Make sure both of you are ready." He said and walked away, but not before looking at Duo. He closed the door behind him.
"Wow he's creepy." Duo said.
Heero nodded. "We still have time before we leave kitten." Duo smiled knowingly pulling Heero into a kiss. They left the room with ten minutes till departure meeting Trowa and Wufei at the bottom of the stairs.
"I don't even want to know what you too were doing." Wufei said. Trowa laughed quietly to himself. Duo looked slightly dazed and his braid was a little more then messy.
"Mating" Heero said before heading out the door.
"I said I didn't want to know!" Wufei practically yelled. Duo just smiled and followed Heero without saying a word. Heero climbed up onto the black horse before he pulled Duo up on the front of it like he weighed nothing. Duo looked around himself and then looked at Heero. "It's noon already?"
"Yes love, it is. " Heero smiled
Trowa brought his horse around to look at Howard. "Send a hawk to Treize, tell him we will meet him at the boarder in a month and a half." Trowa said, then kicked his horse forward, The other two horses following him.
"What do you have to do with this?" Heero asked Trowa.
"Nothing with you." Trowa said, eyeing Duo again to make his point. "Though meeting a changeling is a plus. And once Relena finds out that one has escaped her men, she's going to send people after you. After all she doesn't have a changeling in her 'zoo'." Trowa said.
"She sounds like a monster" Heero growled.
"I would rather be friends with a monster, then be in her zoo." Trowa said. Heero nodded as his tail wrapped around Duo's waist. Trowa eyed him.
"You do know he's a demon right?" Trowa asked. Duo sighed and put his face in his hands. He was so sick of people calling him a demon.
"I'm an elf." He said. Trowa snorted.
"Well I've never seen an elf with purple eyes and who was so short." Trowa said.
"He is an elf." Heero said but nodded to Trowa behind Duo's back.
Trowa smiled at Duo. "But if you say you're an elf then I won't argue with you." Duo looked up at him.
"Really?" Trowa nodded. "thank you." Duo said a little unsure of what to say. Heero's tail tightened around him a little trying to comfort him.
