At first, she is silent, simply watching him with cold eyes that cannot melt the warm inside Iblis' heart. For a long moment, nothing is said between them as the night wears on around them. Iblis can feel the weight of those jade eyes baring down on him but he does not move. Jade and brown clashed in the moonlight as the wolves stared at each other in the darkness. Iblis could help but raise his hackles at the sheer power those eyes had over him. He wanted to gaze into them for an eternity, be lost in their soft hue, and learn what secrets they held. Finally she spoke again, her voice wrapping around Iblis like a golden chain, drawing him into her. "Jaidah," he said, testing her name on his tongue for the first time. It was bitter to the taste but hidden deep down was the sweet honey. "It's nice to meet you, Lady Jaidah." he said, saying her name again, searching for that honey.

Jaidah spoke again, drawing that chain closer and tighter around Iblis. She spoke his name causing a strange chill to run down his spine and his hackles rose even higher. Iblis was not angry, never could he be angry with Jaidah. But the power... the power she had. He couldn't understand it and probably never would. Rather than question the impossible, Iblis simply followed along with Fate's design like a puppet on a string. Again, she speaks and Iblis can hear the pain and sorrow in her voice and he longs to know her story but he remains silent as she tells him in but a few short sentences that he was her prisoner. The golden chain pulled tightly around Iblis and only Jaidah could set him free. To her he was bound, from now until the end of time.

"I would never ask you to change, Jaidah. I will accept you for who you are and what you have done, even if you do not do the same to me. I will protect you, guide you, and will lay with you only. Your every wish is my command, My Queen." He bowed again and when he raised his head there was a smile upon her face. If it had been any other wolf, Iblis would have seen the cruel intent and wicked attraction hidden behind those fangs. But to the foolish male, it was simply a smile from a beautiful wolf who Fate had deemed his own. She could do no wrong in his eyes. Jaidah moves forward and rubs against Iblis in what he takes as a sign of acceptance and affection and his heart is sent thundering in his chest as white mixes with red. Her scent fills him, blends with him, and consumes him until he is lost. The wolfess moves behind him as she makes her way away from the cliff into the night, pausing only to see if her knight was following.

And he did. With a smile, Iblis moved away from the light of the moon and followed his imprint into the darkness. They walked side by side for a time in silence before Iblis spoke again. "Where do you come from, may I ask? And where do you plan on going from here?" He wanted to know everything about her and what better place to start? A fly buzzed around his severed ear and he twitched in unconsciously as he waited to hear her voice again, waited for a chance to lap at that sweet honey.
