Chapter 13:

Gray's POV:

Why did I just do that to her? Maybe because she seems just like Askar. But she did look just like Ashkar when I held her. Maybe she is Ash….nah...she couldn't be. If she was then…..I just confessed my love to her and she feels the same way…I should probably keep an eye on her…

Ashkar's POV:

What just happened? Gray held me and forced me to look into his eyes. I wonder how much I blushed… Either way I have to go finish my bath and then head out on the mission to get the artifact that could save my mother.

As I sat in the tub I wondered if it was a good idea to have told Gray the name of my old guild. No matter what he or I said he could go to the guild at anytime and I wouldn't be able to stop him. Would he really like to know that I am Ashkar? The Ashkar that he loves? I couldn't do that to him could I? Tell him I'm Ashkar, not see him for two months and then leave the guild? That is something that I couldn't do. It would be better for him to think that Ashkar was somewhere else.

After I was done with my bath, I changed into a white tank top, a black jacket, black cargo pants and some black combat boots. I think anyone could tell that my favorite color was black. I headed to the guild to tell Gramps that I was off.
