The Hunter held her close and she held him as
well...loath to move out of his arms. He pulled her
down to lay beside him on the bed. She was more
concerned about his singed rear, but he brushed it
off. "Served me right for teasing Draco at that time!"
A soft kiss deepened. He broke away with a groan of
frustration... "Just you wait until my hind end is
healed. Then you won't be able to get anywhere!" "Just
remember NOT to tease Draco when he is with Draconess,
then you wont receive a burned end!" He chuckled. They
just held each other until near sunrise...WyldeFyre
was back in formation at Sunrise. She worked out under
Draco's watchful eyes... Damn she was fast.. Her Triad
training served her well here! He called her over
after the training was done for the day. "Why did you
pat me on the head in Dragon form?!" he demanded...
"Draco.. It was to soothe your temper and to let you
know that I understood why Hunter got his rump
burned!" He laughed at that, and sent her on her way
to her next session  which was with The StarSworn, as
Paul had been renamed. She knocked at the door
hesitantly. "Enter" StarSworn spoke. She came in and
at his direction, took a seat and the lessoning began.
Several hours later, he called a halt to the
lessoning, as her controls were getting shaky. "Go and
rest" he  told WyldeFyre... You are much better than I
thought... Build on what I have taught you... Your
next lessoning will be with Strong Heart and Lady
Loreli after practice." Thusly dismissed, she padded
down the hallway to her room. Hunter was waiting on
her
Another healing session on Hunter's still sore rump
did the trick...she was so tired that her eyes closed
abruptly. She fell asleep, exhuasted by the psychic
lessoning, plus battle practice. Both just rested in
each others arms... Soon came the day that she had
lessoning WITH Hunter. After practice, she reported to
Hunter, only to find him alone.. His sore rear was now
fully healed.. She was SUPPOSED to be taking classes
with other students. She eyed him suspiciously.. He
cracked a grin and she heard the Dragons take flight
again. "Dont YOU DARE tease them again!' WyldeFyre
sputtered a little. "Not a chance this time...I
learned my lesson about that!" She relaxed a
little..."Where are your other students?" "You're the
only one!" he replied wickedly. "You little devil!"
she smiled finally seeing the reason she had been
brought here.

She smiled at him and again, Draco put his massive
head through the window and Draconess did the same at
the other window. Both walked towards them, only to
see them disappear for a moment. Both had turned to
face each other as the sunlight began to fade, when
both dragons popped their heads back in. And gently
pushed the two together and into each other's arms.
This time they didn't mind at all..Hunter's rump was
now healed...and WyldeFyre wasn't quite as sore from
the drilling. Finally both Dragons disappeared. She
racked her arms as she had come straight from
practice.Hunter slid behind her and helped her remove
the heavy chain mail armour. Massaging her stiff and
sore muscles, he got her to relax. "tonight is the
Hunter's Moon" he told her..."and tonight....you
become mine." She smiled drowsily in agreement. The
scent of Shavawood and flowers filled the Hunter's
room. As he had already removed his armour earlier, he
put his concentration to her. She was about to find
out what being his entailed! Rolling her gently over
onto her back, he began an empathic connection to
her.She connected with him immedately, awash in the
trust and faith, hunger and love that flowed through
him to her and back again. His body slid gently down
to hers. She enfolded him within her warm embrace. A
touch of lips, heightened the connection. Each touch
was erotic, yet gentle. Mouths fusing gently, hands
touching, skin on skin. Lightning struck as he
pleasured her in ways that she hadn't dreamed before.
Finally when they couldn't tell who belonged to who,
He slowly slid inside her. Movement up on movement,
touch upon touch moving like ocean waves that crashed
on the shore. Sounds of soft cries filled the air and
the pleasure broke over her again and again. A deep
surging wave brought both to fulfillment in a world
that was theirs alone. Stunned beyond belief...she
could only surrender to him. A sharp nip at her throat
caused her to cry out. As the sun finally rose, the
empathic connection was disconnected...and both fell
asleep in each others arms.

WyldeFyre was deeply angry... she had been pushed to
her breaking point, by someone within the Fire
Warriors. Still she held it in and continued until the
rudeness became too much and she exploded. She vocally
told HamRa to go fly straight to Se'vel. After
practice..She stayed put until she could control the
surging anger. She began doing the Fire Warrior
practices, working aginst the pells is a flurry of
anger and rage. She heard a footstep and whirled
around, sword at the ready to impale anyone who messed
with her... At the sight of Draco, however... she
lowered her sword.. He Saw the fire of Rage within her
and her attempts to calm it down. She swallowed hard..
She knew Draco wasn't happy and wondered if she would
be punished for losing her temper. Instead, he drew
his sword and they clashed for several long  bouts,
before he disarmed her. Her hand stung, but she was
thankful for just that..."Sit!" he ordered... his
voice even. She obeyed. "For what it is worth, I
admire your restraint....you only told him to go to
hell instead of attacking him with your sword, and you
didn't take your anger out on him... You DID NOT tell
me however!... I am unhappy about that... but all
things considered, you took the more constructive
route and took it out on the pells. Tell me exactly
what happened between you two... Leave nothing out!"
She did. "Next time, I expect you to come to me about
it... and take your frustration out on the pells as
you were doing... Understand!" Yes Draco" she answered
quietly. "Good!... Now Hunter is waiting for you... So
get going and forget about the anger!" To her surprise
he grinned at her. She managed a shaky grin and got
going!

                        IX

The arrival of the BeastMaster and his lady Raven was
cause for celebration...The whole Castle was in
celebration... WyldeFyre was happy and joyful that
another member of the Warriors had finally come home!
Later that night , before meeting Hunter, WyldeFyre
felt a horrendously strong pull to the shielded Tower
of Vision. She followed her instincts. She took her
place at the South, when the horrific vision overtook
her. She watched and her soul was torn apart at what
she saw. A soul deep scream of anguish and pain tore
away from her... she was still locked into trance. She
was in the hold of something that she couldn't break.
Her screams faded away to nothing, but the horror of
the vision and the psychic pain was at the point of no
return. She couldn't hear Hunter's cry as he fought to
get to her... Finally the StarSworn broke the horrific
connection, and she collapsed completely. Hunter
reached to her through their Bond... She was carried
to Raven, who swore angrily at the condition WyldeFyre
was in. "Hunter take her to your room and lock
yourselves away....This will take you to heal
her...Whoever did this, caught her unawares." The
StarSworn revealed what he had seen which made Hunter
all the more angry, as it was a premeditated attack on
her, by one of the Fire Warriors themselves... Draco
went down and summoned the culprit. "Hunter... I trust
you will pass judgement on this one for the near
destruction of your bondmate! After you are finished,
then I will handle the rest." The anger build inside
Hunter and he doled out a beating, restraining his
anger finally before he killed the fool! He turned to
Draco... "Ive got to see about WyldeFyre.... This will
take a lot of healing before she is well again."
Draco's punishment was severe and swift.. The Fire
Warrior who had psychically attacked her... was
executed immediately, and with no remorse. Hamra was
now dead. Draco turned to the rest of the Fire
Warriors. "Let this be a lesson...No one carries out
personal vendettas against another.This is the end
result. DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?" Teh shout of "Aye met
that answer.

                         X 

Hunter Linked with WyldeFyre, and suddenly the yellow
light was back... The Spirits of the Six surrounded
both of them and helped him heal her. *The healing
will not be easy for such MindHurt, but we are here to
help you with the one formerly known as Ariel* He
nodded his thanks. Gods above and below. Why in the
hell did HamRa do this for... petty revenge... which
in the end cost him his life. He shook off the anger
and went back to healing her. His soul and hers merged
and peace fell deep inside WyldeFyre's heart and soul.
He Felt the peace surround her and smiled despite the
exhaustion. She would be fine. Her eyes opened and she
held out her arms wordlessly. He slid into her embrace
and stayed there, reassuring her that all would be
well.. In his absence, the BeastMaster was training
his warriors. It had been several days since the
psychic attack on her. Her eyes began to sparkle
again... Draco and the others were kept appraised of
the situation. Finally both energed from the shelter
of their room. Both were healed. She reported to Draco
immedately, requesting duty status again. He had to
smile... she was a tough little cookie! She spent time
with the StarSworn rebuilding damaged shields and
blown channels... showing a patience that had not been
there before. And at night she and Hunter were
inseperable. The BeastMaster and Lady Raven were
overjoyed to see them both...as were everyone else....
Hunter made some plans that he felt, would heal
WyldeFyre's deepest wounds and everyone agreed to the
plan. So WyldeFyre's true healing began....and she
wound up having to heal Hunter's singed rear again,
after he teased BOTH dragons! She just chuckled at
him... "Beloved... will you ever learn not to do the
same trick twice?!" He grinned at her... "It doesn't
look that wasy, does it?" She just laughed at him...
He couldn't help but laugh himself...the fact was.. he
was one very happy man....
