Later that same day,the lovey dovey decided to go ahead and go home since today was nothing but a depressing and stressful day as they both wished that today would just end and that a brand new day would come.

Austin and Dawn were both back home and as they were,it was almost 6:00pm as they haven't eaten dinner yet.

Hey,are you..hungry? Austin asked. I could order a pizza if you--

His eye's wided a bit when he felt her hugging him and that he looked at her by surprise.

D-Dawn--

But the young woman didn't say anything and that he knew that she was still upset as her aura was still Black and empty.

I'll order us a pizza and we can do whatever you want. Austin comforted her,stroking her hair softly.

All the young woman could do was just nod and not say a word as she then let him go so that he would go ahead and order the pizza.

While the young man was on the phone ordering pizza,the young woman was in the bedroom,changing into her night clothe's.

She was wearing a little long,white,nightgown dress as she slipped some White sock's on.

When she was done getting dressed,she looked at her bandage's as she had a concerned look on her face.

Then,she clenched her arm and as she did,she let out a pain exclaim.

She then hissed softly from the pain and that she knew that what she did was wrong.

When she had her back turned,her lover was standing in the doorway of their bedroom as he was seeing what she was doing.

Ah,damn it! Dawn looked at her bandage's and she saw that it was bleeding a little bit. Great,just great..

When the young woman turned,she exclaimed in surprise when she saw her lover.

H-Hey. Dawn stammered,with a fake smile on her face.

He looked at her bandage's and he saw that it was bleeding a little bit as he then looked back at her.

Need some help? Austin asked.

The lovey dovey were both in the living room,while her lover was cleaning up,and fixing her bandage's as she watched him.

When he was looking at her badly,deep,scar's,he could tell that it was indeed hurting her with pain.

Doe's it..hurt? Austin asked,slowly,trying not to offend her. I know it must be.

Yeah,it doe's..A lot...

He then finished and when he was done,she pulled her arm away as she looked at her bandage's.

Thank you..Dawn thanked him.

Wait,i forgot one more thing.

Hmm,what's that?

He reached his arm out and once he did,he held onto her arm gently as he kissed her bandage's carefully and gently.

The young woman let out a soft exclaim and that she was blushing lightly when he did that.

Sorry,i hope that..made you..feel better. Austin apologised,blushing as well.

No,it's okay..

The doorbell rang and the two let out a soft exclaim as they knew that it was the pizza delivery man.

I'll be right back. Austin got up and started walking over toward's the front door.

His lover watched him and that he opened the door as it was the pizza delivery man.

The young man paid for his pizza and got his change back as he smiled and closed and locked the front door behind.

I ordered your favorite,cheese pizza. Austin smiled at her,holding onto the pizza box.

Oh,are you sure you wanna eat that? I know that cheese pizza isn't your favorite.

It's fine,i don't mind at all.

Oh,okay..

That night,the lovey dovey were both eating their cheese pizza for dinner as the two were both watching a movie on tv on the couch.

The young woman was close to her man as he had his arm wrapped around her,and that she felt safe and sound.

He looked down at her and he saw that she was watching the movie as he saw that her aura was still Black and empty.

Letting out a soft sigh,she looked over at him as he exclaimed when he saw that she was looking at him.

Is something wrong? Dawn asked,still looking at him.

Yeah,i'm fine. It's just--

She let out a soft sigh and that she was resting her head onto his lap,while she had her eye's closed as this made her lover exclaim softly.

You can see my aura,can't you? Dawn had already guessed the answer for him.

H-Hey,how did you--?

I can tell by your body language and face expression's..You don't..need to see my aura...

I'm sorry...

He began to stroke her hair gently and that she opened her eye's as she felf him stroking her hair gently.

There's no need for you to apologise..Dawn assured him,shifting up as she suddenly looked over at him.

He looked over and saw that she was now looking at him as he didn't know what was going to happen next.

Dawn? Austin said her name,still looking at her. What are you--?

Then,all of a sudden,she got on top of him as he exclaimed a little loud because this was all so sudden.

Can i have it? Dawn asked,her crotch touching his crotch as she looked into his eye's. I want you to give it to me...

Wh-What are you..t-talking about?

You know excatly what i'm talking..

A-As in...?

Yes,sex...

His eye's wided a bit and that he didn't like seeing this other side of Dawn nor,was liking this at all.

He could tell that the reason why she was acting this way was because a lot has happened to her today and that she's going through a tough time at the moment.

Well,Austin,what do you say? Dawn asked,leaning over toward's him. Can i have it?

Dawn...

Then,all of a sudden,she exclaimed as her eye's wided when he pinned her down onto the couch,getting on top of her.

He held both of her hand's and that the two both looked at each other as he saw that she wasn't joking or kidding around.

Usually when they wanna do it,she would be all embarrassed and shy,but,she wasn't nor embarrassed or shy about this.

He saw that she indeed wanted it and that he knew that this wasn't right as he didn't want to take advantage of her,either.

He knew excatly what he had to do and he knew that she wouldn't wanna hear it.

No,i'm not going to do it! Austin declared at her,still looking at her.

She didn't say anything,but just looked at him as she was hearing him out.

I'm not going to take advantage or use you like that,i wasn't born or raised that way to do that to a woman such as you. Austin told her. I know why your doing this and you don't need to satisfy herself onto me,we can just..cuddle or talk about it. But,if you don't want to talk about it,we can just talk about something else. Do you understand..what i'm trying to say to you?

I understand perfectly well...

Her lover then got off of her and that he helped her shift up from the couch as she looked the other way.

I'm sorry...Dawn replied softly,feeling embarrassed.

N-No,it's okay. It's so strange,usually i'm alway's the one who want's it,but Dawn wanting it first? That's just..odd..

He saw that she was looking down,not saying anything as he came closer to her.

It's okay,i'm not mad at you or anything. I just..don't want to..do..that to you...Austin admitted the truth and that he looked the other way as he felt embarrassed by this. We can do what you want,but not that,alright?

C-Can i..cuddle you..naked?

This made the young man exclaim a little loud as he looked back at her.

Why? Austin asked,still looking at her by surprise.

Because i like cuddling with you and i wanna..cuddle you in your wolf form as i'm..naked..

O-Okay,then. I-I guess..we could..do that as long as you don't do anything.

Say's to the one who alway's start's off sex first...

I heard that,you know...

The young man closed his eye's and transformed into his wolf form as his lover was taking her nightgown off and that she had her pantie's on.

When she looker over at her lover,she saw that he was in his wolf form as she blushed lightly.

He blushed back as well and that she came over as she cuddled right next to him on the couch.

Mmm...Dawn had closed her eye's and as she did,she could hear him murring softly. Mmm,your fur is so fluffy...

You think so?

But,she didn't reply back,and when he looked down,he saw that she was already asleep.

He then smiled and leaned over as he licked her cheek.

Goodnight,Dawn...Austin whispered her name softly. Sweet dream's..

That night,Austin and Dawn were both asleep on the couch,and as they were,the two were both having a different dream.

In Austin's dream,he opened his eye's as he saw that he was outside.

Groaning softly,he rubbed his eye's,and looked around to see if anybody else was around,but to his surprise,he saw Maria hanging some clothe's out on the line as he was watching her.

The little girl had stopped what she was doing as she smiled and waved at him as he too,did the same thing.

He began to walk over toward's her to see if he could be able to know more about her mother and father.

Hello,Maria. Austin greeted her,with a smile.

Hi,Austin. It looked like you fell asleep.

Oh,i did? I didn't know. Maria,i want to ask you about your mother and father again if you don't mind.

The little girl then looked up at the young man and that he was looking back as well.

Okay,what do you want to know? Maria asked. I may not know much,but i can try to remember..

Doe's your mother or father have any friend's that you two know of?

Hmm...

The little girl was thinking for a few minute's and then,she knew that her mother and father did have friend's.

Yes,they did. Mother and father did have friend's when we were little kid's. Some of them work at the village and we see them whenever we go out to get some thing's. Maria explained.

Really? I didn't know that. Do they know where your parent's are?

Maria was about to say something when her twin brother interrupted her.

They do. Michael interrupted the two of them. Some of our mother's friend's know where she is,but they don't know where our father is. Ever since we got seperated by our parent's,their friend's would help us both out no matter what. They would give us food and information about the situation about our parent's as we're both very greatful for them all to have helped us when we needed someone's help the most.

The young man was intrigued to know more and more about Maria and Michael's friend's as he wanted to meet them all.

Do you want to meet them all? Michael asked the young man.

The young man exclaimed when he asked him that question.

Then,all of a sudden,the young boy reached his hand out and smiled as the wind started to blow a little.

I think..you might like them once you get to know them.

You mean--? Maria started to ask. You want Austin to meet mother and father's parent's?

Yes,sister. He should be able to know our parent's friend's and Austin could be able to help as well since their all helping us out.

The wind started to blow a little and that Austin looked up at the sky as he saw that bird's were flying in the sky.

We do need to go into town to get some thing's for the house and since we're going out into the village,we can intruduce you to all of our parent's friend's. Michael told the young man,smiling,while looking at him. So,what do you say?

Austin then looked at Maria and Michael as the two were waiting for the young man to reply.

The young man reached his hand out and smiled as he looked at the two children.

Okay,i would be happy to meet your parent's friend's.

The young man was groaning softly in his sleep and that he started to wake up.

Rubbing his eye's,he saw that he was still sitting on the living room couch as he looked over and saw that his lover was still asleep.

M-Mmm...

Hmm? Austin heard his lover moaning softly in her sleep and that he looked at her.

Please...

Ah...

He exclaimed softly because now he heard her sleep talking in her sleep as he reached his hand out to her.

Andrew...

Her lover then gasped softly and that he pulled his hand away as he wondered who Andrew was.

In the Dawn's dream,she opened her eye's,and as she did,she saw that she was outside again.

It was foggy out,just like the last dream that she had as she didn't see anybody else around.

She saw that she was resting under a tree and that she was outside as she saw the kingdom again.

Huh,i'm..having the same dream again? But,why?

Slowly standing up,she held onto the tree so that she wouldn't fall again as she looked around to see if anybody else was around,but no.

Nobody else was around,but her,and her only as she was pretty much used to being alone.

Soon,the young woman began to walk,and as she did,she started walking over toward's the kingdom.

The kingdom was really big and she liked how amazing and lovely it was as she wanted to go inside and look around,but she was scared that somebody might see her.

Wow,it's like being in a fairy tale. Dawn admitted when she stopped to reach her arm out to touch the wall.

When the young woman touched the wall,her eye's wided a bit when she couldn't feel the wall at all.

Her skin went right through the wall and that she couldn't believe it.

H-How? Am i dreaming or am i..dead? Dawn thought to herself,a little bit shocked,and surprised by it. No,that's impossible. I must be dreaming and i don't know why i'm dreaming this,but something tell's me that i shouldn't be here.

Then,the young woman decided to go into the kingdom since nobody else could see her as she remembered the elegant,young woman she saw the last time she had dreamt about her.

Delilah...Dawn thought of her name. Maybe..i might be able to see her again and if i do,i wanna know what's going on. To me,she looked so unhappy like something or someone was treating her like a slave...

The young woman took a deep breath,let it all out,and went through the wall as she made it inside of the kingdom.

When she went through the wall and made it inside,she looked around as she didn't see anyone around.

Sighing with relief,she began to walk,and that she stayed quiet.

Man,this kingdom is so big inside...It look's more than a castle than a kingdom...Dawn thought to herself. They're both the same,so it's no different.

"My lady,are you okay?" Said an unfamiliar voice that Dawn didn't know.

The young woman exclaimed and she saw a Brown door that was closed as she would have figured that it could be Delilah's room.

Coming closer to the wall,she placed her hand onto the cold wall,and as she did,she went through the wall.

By the time she came into the room and onto the other side,she saw the elegant,young woman again.

Delilah...Dawn whispered her name softly,her eye's widing a bit,looking at her.

The elegant young woman looked at the young woman in the room as Dawn saw another person in the room with her.

This young woman had Blue eye's and a little bit of long,blonde hair as Dawn didn't know who she was.

No,Lila,i'm not...Delilah replied softly. I just..want to see my family and..Andrew...

Tear's began to roll down her eye's and that she looked down at the ground.

Delilah...Lila said softly,looking at her,with concern. There must be something that i can do.

I just wish that..mother and father would listen and understand,but they won't. They never will...

Dawn felt bad and sorry for Delilah and that she wished that she could do something for her,but there was no way.

All she could do was nothing,but watch.

Why do i have to marry someone that i don't even know or love? Delilah sniffed softly,looking up. I don't even like Kenneth and he mean's nothing to me. He's not the one,he's not the one that i love. I can't just..force to love someone,it doesn't work that way. I wish i was never a princess...But,i will tell my parent's how i truly feel,and then,that way,they might understand how I truly feel.

I beg to differ. Said a familar voice.

Dawn gasped softly and as she did,she turned to the front door as she saw Kenneth.

Delilah frowned and glared at the young man as he turned to look at Lila for her to leave the room.

Lila bowed and started to leave the room as the two were both alone in the room.

What do you want? Delilah asked,still glaring at him. Haven't you done enough damage as it is? You've already taken my family and the one that i love away,so why are you tormenting me?

I heard everything what you were saying to your little maid and it look's as though that your going to tell your mummy and daddy that you don't want to marry a handsome man such as me?

The elegant young woman didn't say anything and that he was waiting for her to say something as Dawn didn't like this.

Then,all of a sudden,Delilah stood up from her seat as she started to walk.

I am and i will.

She then walked past the young man and then,he smiled as he was trying his best to hold in his laughter.

You heartless bastard...Dawn said softly to herself aloud,starting to leave the room. I hope she doesn't marry a sorry,excuse of a sap such as yourself.

The young woman decided to go and follow the princess as she wanted to hear what her parent's have to say.

Delilah,where are you? Dawn thought to herself,looking for the princess. You shouldn't have gone that far.

Then,the young woman stopped walking when she heard footstep's as she figured out that it could have been the princess.

Without hesitation,the young woman started walking again as she was following the footstep's of the young princess.

I would like to speak to the king and queen,please. Delilah said to the guard's who were guarding the throne room as the guard's opened the door for her.

Bowing down,the princess walked into the throne room along with Dawn as she saw how big and enermous it was.

The door's closed with a little loud thud and the young woman was right behind the princess as she looked straight ahead and saw the king and queen sitting in their throne chair's,looking down at their daughter.

Sweetie,what a wonderful surprise to see you here. Mariah,the queen said to her daughter.

Mother,father,i have cometh to speaketh to you two if you don't mind.

The king and queen both looked at each other and back at the princess.

Okay,daughter. We will hear what you have to say. Jonathan,the king said to his daughter.

Dawn looked at the king and queen as she thought of her own parent's when she turned back to look at the princess on what she has to say.

The queen a little bit long,Black and Brown hair with dark,Brown eye's as if she really did belong on the throne.

The king had dark,Black hair with Dark,Brown hair,and that he didn't look like Delilah at all.

I-I came to speaketh to you both about Kenneth-- Delilah started to say,while looking at her parent's.

What about sir Kenneth? Asked the queen. Isn't he charming and dashing? He certainly is the one for you.

The princess didn't like this,but she knew that she had to tell her parent's the truth that she really didn't love him and that he wasn't her true love.

Hear,hear. I say he'll make a fine husband for you,my dear. Jonathan agreed with his wife and that he smiled. You two will have a family of your own and that you two will be happy.

I don't love him!

When the princess declared,the whole room went quiet as the room echoing Delilah's word's.

What..did you say? Mariah asked,glaring and frowning down upon her daughter.

Dawn didn't like this one bit and she knew that thing's would turn out for the worst.

I don't love him and he isn't my true love,either. Delilah spoke the truth. He's not the one that i love because i love someone else and that someone is Andrew. I already have a family with him and i'm happy.

The king and queen didn't say anything as they stayed quiet.

Why can't you two understand that i'm already in love with someone else? Delilah asked both of her parent's. You can't force me to marry someone that i don't even know or love,it doesn't work that way!

Silence!

The princess exclaimed softly when her mother shouted at her as Dawn had a concerned look on her face.

I thought we perfectly said that you are forbidden to see that mongrel of a monster and you will marry Kenneth rather you like it or not. Mariah frowned at her daughter. I can't believe you,you really are a disgrace to this whole family.

Delilah's eye's wided a bit when her mother was speaking mean toward's her as she started to shake.

H-How can you--? Delilah started to ask,but she was trying her best to speak up to her mother. You don't know anything about him,neither of you do.

I do not like for you to talk back to your parent's. Said the king. Your older sister is happily married and she's going to be raising her own family soon.

Your one to speak even though your not really my father!

The queen gasped softly and that the king was shocked when he heard the princess talk back to him as well.

That's enough! Mariah shouted again. Delilah,you will marry sir Kenneth tomorrow,and i don't want to hear anything else you have to say. Do i make myself clear?

The princess couldn't believe what she was hearing and she was about to say something as she broke into a sob,and that she left the throne room in a hurry.

Dawn looked at the king and queen as she started to follow her to see if she was okay or not.

When Dawn was walking,she heard soft sobbing as she followed the sound to where the princess was crying.

Soon,she then spotted the princess who was sitting down on the ground,still crying as the young woman was looking down at her,having a concerned look on her face.

Delilah...Dawn replied softly,feeling bad for her because she knew what she was going through. I'm so sorry...

Andrew...

The young woman exclaimed very softly when she said Andrew's name again as she still doesn't know about the one that Delilah love's.

Oh,Maria,Michael...Delilah sniffed softly,wiping her tear's away. I guess..i won't..be seeing you three again...My children,my love...

Maria,Michael?

Then,all of a sudden,the young woman looked up as she saw light,and she knew that she was starting to wake up.

Mmm...Dawn was moaning softly and as she was,she slowly opened her eye's,and that she was awake.

When she had her eye's fully opened,she saw that she was sitting on the couch as she felt something fuzzy,and soft on her naked body.

She looked up and saw that it was Austin still into his wolf form as she exclaiming very softly.

Oh,sorry..Dawn apologised to her lover. I guess i..fell asleep..

It's okay,i fell asleep,too. It sounded like you were having an uncomfortable dream,huh?

Yeah,i guess you can say that.

Austin wanted to know who this Andrew guy was and that he was kinds nervous to ask his lover that,but he had to know.

I want to ask you something and you promise you won't get mad at me? Austin asked,looking over toward's her way.

His lover looked at him as well too,and that she wanted to know what he wanted to ask as she nodded in agreement.

Well,i was hearing and watching you asleep as i heard you moaning softly in your sleep-- Austin started to explain to her. You were saying a man's name in your sleep and that name is Andrew.

The young woman's eye's wided a bit when she heard that name and she knew who Andrew was as she had to tell her lover what has been going on.

Austin,i-i need to tell you something,and i want you to hear me out.

The young man reached his hand over and that he held her hand.

Okay,i will. Austin agreed. I'll hear you out.

I..started having a dream about a princess named Delilah and whoever she is,she's being forced to marry someone that she doesn't know or love. The guy's name is Kenneth and i don't like him one bit at all,he remind's me so much of..Kendrick...

Really?

The young woman nodded her head and she continued explaining her dream to her lover.

The princess explain's and tell's her parent's that she doesn't want to marry him,but they won't listen to her. They even called the one that she loved a mongrel and his name is Andrew. Dawn told him.

That's awful,i don't know why parent's would force and make their child marry someone that they don't know or love. Love doesn't work that way and i guess that's their way of obeying the law.

Yeah,i guess your right..

He saw that his lover had a concerned look on her face and he wondered why.

I just..feel..so bad for her...Dawn admitted,while speaking softly,looking down. I know exactly how Delilah feel's and all i could do was watch everything...Nobody couldn't see me and i just so bad and sorry for her...The last..thing that she..said was..she couldn't be able to see her family and the one that she loved...Maria,Michael,and Andrew...

The young man exclaimed softly when he heard Maria and Michael's name as he thought about Dawn's explanation to her dream that she has been having.

D-Did you say Maria and Michael? Austin asked.

Yes,i did. Why do you ask.

Well,this is going to sound crazy,but i've been having dream's about these two children named Maria and Michael and they might have a connection to your dream,Dawn.

What..do you mean?

The young man let out a soft sigh and as he did,he knew that he had to tell Dawn about his dream's that he's been having.

I've been..having these dream's about two children named Maria and Michael,their both sibling's and twin's as well. Austin started explaining his dream. Their mother or father weren't in the picture and their father had to run away because some men would use experiment's on it,Michael said that he..had this gift,but i have no clue what that wish was. Then,Michael also told me that their father would come back into their live's until the right time would come.

The young woman was fascinated and stunned by this as she could tell that maybe that their dream's were indeed telling them both something,but what?

Austin,you don't think that--?

Our dream's are--?

Trying to tell us something? The lovey dovey couple said at the exact same time.

The two both looked at each other and that they had to know what else would happen in their dream's as they wanted to know what else would have happened next.

You know,i think..your right...Dawn smiled a little,coming closer to him. I think..our dream's are trying to tell us both something,but we..don't know what for sure they'll trying to tell us both. It..could be true,after..all...

Yeah,i think your right..

Mmm...

Rubbing her eye's,she closed her eye's as she rested her head onto his shoulder when he looked over her way,and that he could tell that it was getting late.

We better go on ahead and get some sleep,it's getting late. Austin suggsted to her.

Yeah,your right..

The young man went back to his human form and that she for up off of the couch as the two headed into their bedroom.

The young man was on his right side and that his lover was on her left side in bed as she looked at him,while he was stroking her hair gently.

Wolfie...Dawn replied softly,closing her eye's. I feel so safe and sound when i'm with you,it's as if i'm protected by the one that i love...You've been there for me even when i was little and i'm glad that we met...Who know's,if we didn't meet,we would both be..with..other people...

You have a point there,my Beauty. I've noticed that ever since we started dating and going out,a lot has happened,but i'm..not going to say...I don't--

But his word's trailed off when his lover kissed him on the lip's gently as he slowly closed his eye's and kissed her back.

Please,you don't need to feel bad or sorry for me. I'm used to it...Dawn spoke the truth,caressing his cheek,smiling warmly at him.

He opened his eye's and felt his lover caressing his cheek as he was murring softly when he looked over at her bandaged arm and wrist.

Then,he leaned over as he gently kissed her bandage's,while she watched him.

If you want,you can..lick my..scar's tomorrow. Dawn said,starting to blush lightly.

H-Huh?

Well,whenever i scraped my leg,my granny would tell me that a dog cleaning and licking your cut's or scar's can help heal and make it all better. It's okay if you don't want to do it.

O-Oh,i would have been..happy to do that for you. I want to make you feel better.

The young woman came closer to him in bed and that he held her,while murring a little loud now as she heard him.

I've noticed something else as well,i feel like..we have this special bond that we both share. Dawn said to her lover.

A bond?

Yeah,when my house was on fire,you came to see me. Were you..worried about me?

Of course,i was. I sensed that something wasn't right and i just had to see if you were okay. It's strange,we wolve's can sense something,and i remember when Kendrick was lying his ass off that as i..blurted out that you were my girlfriend. When i said that out loud,Kendrick was so shocked and surprised,he looked like he was going to get ready to attack me,but he didn't. I know that he wanted to,but i didn't want to cause a scene at the hospital.

All of a sudden,the young woman began to laugh a little loud as he looked at her a bit confused.

Oh,really? Dawn asked,smiling. That must have had gut's to say that to him and i'm glad that you saved me. But,no matter how many time's you have saved me,i haven't owed you the favor back.

You don't need to return the favor back. Please--

He reached his hand out to her's and that he held her hand.

I don't want you to do anything wreckless such as..sacrificing your life...Austin started to shake a little and that he looked into her eye's.

Austin...

The young woman looked back at him and she thought that he was going to cry as she knew what she said was wrong,but she did wanted to return the favor since he has been there for her and that he saved her,too.

Please,don't give your life up just for me. Austin pleaded to her and that he reached her hand up to his mouth as he kissed it gently. I'll do whatever i can to protect and save you no matter what. You mean everything to me and i'm not going to lose you again. Not now and not forever. Y-You've been through a lot in your life and..i'm so-so..proud for you for that...I'm proud because you were strong enough to face your fear's in the end and that's what i..like about you...Your caring,kind,and sweet as you look out for other's before you. Your like a strong warrior that's been through a lot and..you don't need to suffer anymore because you have your knight ans shining armor,the one that you love.

Dawn exclaimed softly and that her eye's wided a bit what her lover was saying to her as she tried to hold back the tear's.

Austin...Dawn reached her arm's out and hugged him when he came closer to her in bed. Austin,my mi armor. My knight and shining armor,my Wolfie...I promise,i promise.

The two looked back at each other and that they didn't take their eye's off of each other's.

I promise that i won't do anything wreckless. Dawn promised to him.

Thank you,my Beauty..

The two both leaned over and kissed each other on the lip's passionately with passion as she felt safe by him and by him by her side.
