Claire looked at him when he said that.

Claire: You can not, I am the guardian of this temple, it is my job to look after it and I demand you leave now.

She said glaring at him..

She nodded as she stood there looking at him.

Claire:  I do.

She said as she had nothing but love and respect for her temple. 

Claire: Leave now before I summon the guards here to remove you.

She said as she didn't want to see the man arrested but if he continued to cause trouble she would have no choice..

Claire looked at him when he said that as she started to speak.

Claire: I do not wish to find out, so please do not force me to call them, please stop destroying temple property

Claire looked at him not sure what he really meant by that as she was thinking about it a moment.

Claire: So you'll stop vandalizing the statue?.

Claire looked at him as he was stepping towards her as she still stood her ground.

Claire; Thank you, please don't reck anything in the temple. .

Claire looked at him as she didn't really trust him.

Claire: Thank you.

She said turning to leave..

Claire was shocked when he grabbed her as she looked at him.

Claire: Please take your hands off me..

Claire looked at him as she struggled a bit not wanting to go with him as she heard what he was asking.

Claire: The guards are here.

she said as she managed to get her arm free as she moved away from him.

Claire: I need to go, it's time for prayers.

She said thinking about it as she started to rush inside the temple...

She went inside as she lit the candles like she had every night at this time. She put the blessing in the water by the statue and then kneeled down as she started the prayer, knowing it was her job to do so....

Bring a priestess came with its rewards as all her prayers to the god of this temple left his men afraid to touch her as she was roughed and beaten up but they didn't want to suffer the wrath of the god , that she was a servant off... She crawled away as they were fighting with Douglas about it as she finally made it to a hiding spot as she curled up a bit, bloody and sore as she waited for them to go, knowing she wouldn't be found here.....

She didn't say anything as he finally left. She waited awhile before coming out as she went checking on the guards that were there as a few sent for the guards from the palace to come down so they could be told what happened.

Claire didn't wait as she knew she wouldn't be welcome here anymore so she just took her cloak and put it on as she snuck out the temple..

She had been distracted when she came out as it had been the first time out of the temple.  She had bent here since she was a baby, and all she knew was the temple so the outside world was a lot for her, and didn't even know he was there until he grabbed her.  When he finally put her down she looked at him scared as she backed away from him.

Claire: What do you want?.

She looked at him scared.

Claire: It's Claire

She looked at him not knowing why he had brought her here, or why he was being so mean to her before , thanks to him she was no longer able to live in the temple.

Claire: Please , can I go now?

She shrugged a bit as she would figure things out on her own.  Now that she was actually having the chance at a different life, a more normal one.

Claire: I'll figure it out.

She said thinking about it.

She looked at him confused when he said that as she didn't understand why he was thinking that, before today she didn't even know him.

Claire: I don't belong to anyone, and thanks to you, I no longer even belong to the temple or the god of it.

She pointed out as he had changed her life for ever..

She looked at him when he said that as she was thinking about it. 

Claire: I don't understand?

She said honestly as she didn't and this was all new to her as she never had much interaction with people from outside the temple...

She shook her head as she looked at him as she didn't understand any of this as she pushed at him a bit, trying to get him to let her go a bit, she just wanted to go , she was free from the temple now and she was wanting to see what was out there now...

She looked at him when he said that as she was thinking about it.

Claire: That isn't true, I've seen many women come into the temple who aren't forced with men, I will not stay here with you, you are not my man anyways.

She said as she didn't have one, and she wasn't looking either.. She finally got out of his grasps as she ran out the door, she stopped though a few feet away looking around the forests, it was a beautiful site.   She could see a waterfall and a lake as she walked over to it, she never really seen water running like this..

Claire: Its so cold.

She smiled as she leaned down touching it as it was nothing like she ever seen, she heard him yelling though as she snapped out of her distraction and took off into the forest.

She stayed quiet as he ran past her as she then took off once again knowing he was going in the opposite direction as she was pretty well off by now, until she heard him yell as she sighed knowing she couldn't leave him if he was in trouble, she wasn't that mean, she walked to where he was yelling as she saw him in a hole trying to jump out.

Claire: How'd you get down there?

He glared at her for her dumb question as she looked around a bit walking off as he was yelling at her thinking she took off but she found something to use as rope as she tied it to a tree then dropped it in she watched him climb out as she looked at him scared when he rushed at her pinning her against the tree.

Douglas: If you wouldn't have ran off like that I wouldn't of been down there.

Claire: But at least you're out now.

She pointed out as she had helped him, so hoping that would help in him not hurting her as she looked at him scared..

She tried to run off again but he grabbed her as she gasped when he picked her up as she tried to get free

Claire: Let me go please..

She looked at him when he said that.

Claire: You don't like me.

She said remembering how mean he had been to her.

She struggled as he did that as she didn't want him to kiss her like that remembering what he had done to her in the temple not wanting that pain.

Claire: Let me go. 

She said bringing her knee up as she finally was able to get away from him as she ran off again. .

She ran off as she was glad when she saw he wasn't chasing her.  She walked around the city that she had never seen, as it was a wonderful place she seen a lot of things she walked around awhile, finding a quiet place to hide and sleep for the night, it was in the woods but she didn't mind it was a beautiful night.  She curled up covering herself with her cloak as she drifted to sleep thinking about what she was going to do with her life now.

When she woke up she was a bit shocked with what she found.  She got up as she ate a little bit then went back into the village.  She learned a few things and even found herself a job with a woman who made bake goods as she taught her how to do it.  It was amazing for her to be able to learn something, after there most of the day she found a women sewing as she went there giving some of the food she earned seeing she had a lot of hungry children.  The woman was so grateful that she gave Claire a new dress.

Claire: Thank you.

She smiled warmly as she walked around a bit more , getting to know the people and learning a few things as she went as they were really kind to her and she returned the kindness in return as she was still respected as the priestess as they wanted to protect her and they hid her from guards looking to deal with her for leaving the temple..

Apparently the god she had been praying too didn't take away her powers he had blessed her with as she had been healing a  child when he came in as she looked at him afraid.

Claire: It looks like my god still accepts me, even if you took my virginity away.

She said looking at him as she was thinking about it.

She looked at him when he said that as she wasn't sure what to think.

Claire: How can you help me?.

She looked at him as she was thinking about it, and had been thinking about it, she knew that if the guards found her she would be taken back to the temple.  With her still having her powers she would still be okay.

Claire: Maybe I should go back anyways, the people would be safe from the guards and I would still be able to help them.

She said as she was thinking about it, wanting them to be safe, and not wanting them to suffer because of her..

She thought about it as she was afraid of him as it was but was being nice.

Claire: Thank you, but I'm going to return.

She said after a moment standing up as she went heading out, she saw a guard yelling at a child as she walked to them.

Claire: Stop, I'm wanting to go back... I didn't mean to run, I got scared.

She said as she was taken back, once back at the temple she was taken to a room cleaned up and dressed right once again as they were trying to put things back in order...

She was confined to her room now more than anything, as they were going to make sure that she wouldn't sneak off again as she wasn't all that surprised as she just sat in her room remembering all she had seen on the outside.

They refused to let him in.  If they would of known who he was and what he had done they probably would of had him killed.

Temple Guards: Sorry she isn't allowed out ,

He said as he was just following orders.

The man shook his head not having a clue who he was.

Guard: No, don't have a clue who you are..

He was shocked to hear that then looked at him bowing quickly.

Guard: I'm sorry my lord...Please go on, she's down the hall.

He said bowing figuring he was going to punish her for what happened, as it was out of his hand but didn't argue with what the gods did.

He walked in to see her sleeping as he looked at the guard as he quickly left closing the door as he walked over to the bed looking at her, watching her a moment as she stirred a bit waking up as she was shocked to see him there.

Claire: Douglas.

She moved a bit as she looked around a bit shocked he was even in here as she was told she would have to be alone for awhile for what she did and what had happened.

Claire: How did you get in here?.

She looked at him confused until he finally explained what was going on and who he was as she looked at him shocked and then feeling foolish for how she had acted as she quickly got out of bed as she bowed to him.

Claire: I'm so sorry for the way I've acted.

She said afraid she was going to be punished but she had no idea who he was at the time..

She looked up at him a little bit as she was thinking about it.

Claire: You have every right to treat me as you wish..

She said as it was just the way it was here how she had been raised and trained, her soul duties was to the gods..

She looked at him as she was thinking about it, remembering how he had been with her when she left the temple.

Claire: But you were wanting to do it again, after I fled the temple.

Remembering what he had said to her about how he claimed her..

She looked at him as she was thinking about it.

Claire: I've never been taught for such things.  I was never meant to leave the temple..

She nodded as she looked at him.

Claire: I'm here to please the gods and to heal the people , using the gift that I was given as a child.

She said as she was thinking about it.

She looked at him when he said that as she was thinking about it, as she was a bit shocked he would think that of her at such a young age but she nodded as she knew

Claire: I see.

She nodded as she had already heard him say that he had chosen her to be his mate as she knew now who he was and all.

Claire: I know..

She said watching as he moved closer to her..

She was glad to hear that as she looked at him thinking about it.

Claire: Thank you, but I'm willing.

She said honestly as she looked at him as she had spent her life being prepared for this ..

She nodded as she looked at him as she was thinking about it. 

Claire: Alright ..

She looked at him when he said that as she was thinking about it, a bit shocked but nodded her head as she was more than willing.

Claire: Yes, I would like too.

She looked nodded as she looked at him as she was thinking about it.

Claire: Alright.
