Crys was quite content lying beside Lumar but her mind was busy elsewhere plotting against the insufferable Gaston Schwenk; she turned to get more comfortable when out of the blue the tiger's stomach began growling. "Sounds like you're hungry." The she-cat idly commented.
He laughed. "When isn't it?" he slapped his chops loudly.
"Well...why don't I fix you something to eat? But...before I do...I need to ask you something serious."
"OK...and yes to both...." he turned to face her, his face calm and serene.
Crys looked deeply into Lumar's emerald green eyes, "Why me? Of all the females that were available to you...Why choose me?"
"Oh.....hmmm....my heart chose, so I don't know if I can give you a satisfactory answer...my heart said 'her'. My heart is never wrong!"
The she-cat raised an eyebrow. "You followed your heart? Despite all the horrible things that I have done to you, your heart still chose me?" Crys slowly sat up. "I don't understand...I should hate you...I should loathe you for being an accomplice for killing the priest, but I don't...I...I care...deeply for you. These...emotions...are strange...foreign to me."
"One cannot control destiny...we all end up with strange bedfellows, literally and metaphorically...Look at me and Schwenk...fate again..."
"Schwenk..." Crys hissed the human's name and felt the acid churning in her stomach...He will pay...she silently vowed. "Yes...fate..." She gave Lumar a quick peck on the cheek. "Put some clothes on and I'll fix you something to eat." And she climbed off the bed.
"Thank you..." he smiled, breathed deeply and stretched in ecstasy.
Meanwhile, Schwenk had had an idea. "Hey, how about later I take you for a meal...in 'Little Siberia'?"
Tee-Lara grabbed hold of her mate's hand. "Really Gaston? Do you really mean it? I WOULD ABSOLUTELY ADORE IT!" She squealed with delight.
"Sure...it'll be an eye opener...you can show me around the old patch...after all, it was somewhere I couldn't go on my own, and Lumar won't set foot there..."
"It is a really nice place...wonderful shops. Do you think you could take me shopping as well, Gaston? I need to get a nice dress especially if I will be working at the Lair."
"OK, I think we're good for cash...get you a nice dress and then you can choose the restaurant..."
"Oh and I have to get matching shoes too!" Tee-Lara added. "Please could you take me to the mall as well?"
"OK, sure...I can see you in....hmmm....nice knee length boots..." he looked up and down. "Black leather....kid leather...." he rubbed his chin.
"Gaston!" The tigress giggled. "That sounds like your fantasy of what you'd like to see me in...Besides, I thought you would have preferred stilettos."
"No...Flats are far sexier! Besides, you're already taller than me...stilettos would just kill me!"
She burst out laughing; Crys entered the living room and gave the couple a curious glance. "What's going on here?"
"Having fun...talking about my diminutive stature...even though we all know females are the weaker sex, you're both bigger than me!" he chuckled.
"Perhaps you are talking about your human female counterparts who are the weaker sex...I am not weak." The she-cat replied dryly; she glanced around. "Tee-Lara have you moved my roses?"
The tigress nodded. "They're in the kitchen on the counter...I placed them in a vase filled with water."
Crys smiled. "Thank you...I wouldn't forgive myself if the roses died...They're beautiful."
"Clearly someone knows what females like..." Schwenk added smugly.
Tee-Lara poked the human. "Sssshhhhh...Behave yourself Gaston."
"Oh it's OK, hun...Crys can take a joke...right Crys..." and as bold as brass he gave her butt a pinch.
Which was a very--very bad mistake on Schwenk's part; quick as lightning Crys whirled around and had her hands around the human's neck. "HOW DARE YOU TOUCH ME--NO ONE MAY TOUCH ME IN THAT MANNER OTHER THAN MY MATE!" She shrieked.
"WHOA!!!! It was a joke, I swear..." he felt himself go lightheaded.
Tee-Lara was beating her fists against the Sh'iar warrior trying to get her to release her mate; Lumar hearing the commotion came rushing out from the bedroom.
Schwenk started to turn blue. "I'm....sor.....ry...." he gasped.
"CRYSTALANDRA LET HIM GO!" Lumar commanded; Crys did so but reluctantly--Schwenk crumpled to the ground gasping for air. "It is forbidden...taboo for a man to touch a Sh'iar woman who is mated..."
"How the....." he panted. "...bloody hell..." he gasped again, "...should I know??"
"Y-you still can't touch me in that manner!" Crys growled stubbornly. "It's not appropriate...I could have killed you."
Lumar bent down next to his brother. "Are you all right Schwenk?" He asked examining the human.
"Bit sore around the windpipe, but hey...I'm used to it with you being all aggressive recently!"
"Come on..." The tiger helped Schwenk up onto the couch. "Crys didn't mean it...you heard her explanation."
Tee-Lara was quietly sobbing in the background.
"Didn't mean it?? What if you hadn't shown up?" his eyes narrowed.
"But I did...end of story." Lumar replied.
He jerked away from his 'brother' and sat next to Tee-Lara. "I'm OK, hun...shhh...." he held her hand; he hated to see her upset.
"Gaston...I was so scared...I-I wasn't strong enough to pull her off of you! What kind of a tigress am I if I can't protect the man I love?!" She wept.
"She's not normal...she's like a machine..." he raised his voice slightly. "They both are!"
Crys was about to lose her temper but she held her tongue; she took a deep breath. "Listen...Schwenk...please accept my apology...You're right...how were you to know. In the future, don’t do things like that with me in jest." The she-cat turned abruptly and headed into the kitchen where they heard her banging pots and pans about.
Schwenk snorted. "Dry those tears, silly thing..." he used a finger to catch a tear, "Can't have you going out all soggy..."
Tee-Lara sniffled. "But are you all right to head out?"
"I'm not like a machine at all Schwenk...I resent you saying that about me...and about Crys...We can't help what we are." Lumar fretted.
"Oh wake up and smell the blood, Lumar..." he snorted. "Go and be with her...leave us alone!"
His feelings hurt, the big tiger got up and went into the kitchen to join Crys; the tigress watched. "Gaston...you could have been nicer...You didn't need to be so unkind to Lumar...He did after all get Crys to stop and saved your life."
"He just cannot see how dangerous she is!" He protested. "When he's standing at my graveside because he hadn't been there...then that would be unkind!!"
"Don't you say that! Just don't you say that!" Tee-Lara protested flinging herself into the human's arms. "It will never come down to that...I won't let it!"
"Good....now, how about a pair of something to go on those cheesy feet of yours..." he teased gently.
She smiled nodding. "Yes...excellent idea...let's get out of here...Let's go out and have ourselves a good time."
"Bingo!" he smiled and they both stood and went to find themselves a cab into a previously un-adventured area of the city for Schwenk.
