Chapter 4

After I have spoken, I realize that my heart is racing like crazy and I know that it was anger that made me speak, the only thought of the past and what I wanted to have and be, in that moment I felt my heart boil .

I would have liked to have addressed Arok in a more polite way, with more respect, but now what is done is done, now it is up to him to take the next step, in the meantime that he continues to be silent I continue to finish the work started .

Time passed and I finish cleaning and wiping my hands when suddenly I hear footsteps, heavy, labored breathing and ...

"MISS! What are you doing here all alone?"

He said it with a smile and while he thinks I'm an ordinary fool, I get ready with a bow and an arrow in my hand and in turn I replied with a confident tone: "It's certainly none of your business, besides I ask you to go back to where you are came ".

He took a step forward and without warning I fired an arrow that went through his cheek, "Don't make me repeat! So if you get any closer the next arrow will go through your neck if you don't leave!"  , now my tone was more determined and angry, in the meantime he was still laughing ...

He wasn't taking me seriously and he wasn't afraid ... what a fool.

"Ohhh, calm down...I wanted to talk, besides you are alone, I thought You need help! You know how it is, there are dangerous animals here and ..."

Another arrow was shot, this time I took the hat he had as a hunter.

"You know what? I just wanted to be nice, instead you, little girl, are pissing me off", as he said all this, I feel that he was approaching, so I was ready to hit another one of my arrows when I hear move someone from the trees behind me.

Poor fool of a man, I warned you, but now your head will be a trophy for someone else.

The human in front of me did not notice that something was coming, I could only hear Arok who now came down from where he was, was ready to approach his prey, with safe and silent steps, he passed me until he arrived in front of the man.

What I felt next was just, "DON'T PRETEND YOU'RE NOT FEELING A BITCH ... Ahhh, but ... fuck?"

Sharp blades stuck in his belly until he pulled him up and dripped his blood on the ground, the man now lifeless, was thrown to the ground and then his head was taken ... and to finish with a flourish Arok put a loud roar full of pride. 

Luckily my sight is black, but unfortunately the other senses have heard everything.

At least Arok is here, in front of me.

I hear him clicking, I don't know exactly what they should mean, but for sure now he will be happy and proud to have a trophy in his hands.

This time I feel that he is the one to start cleaning up what he has found and I remained silent in all this, thinking about what to say or if only to talk and wait.

"I could very well get away with it, you didn't need to kill him", while I said that you hear more clicks coming from him, I think they were a way to tell me to shut up or frustration, but at least we are taking one step at a time.

This time I will try to talk to him more calmly and maybe we find a way to understand each other, I took a deep breath and started talking again, "Anyway I have some food here and I have some at home too, so to repay you for your help I could offer you some meat , if you want ... "

'Damn too embarrassed ... now what?'  I thought to myself in my head, he in response did nothing, just continue what he was caught.

'UFF!  I'm trying here at least, but he seems indifferent .. 'I kept thinking in my head.

"Well do what you want hunter! I have food to cook and I'm starving! So I'll let you do what you know best ..."

I was about to go straight on my way when I feel him moving quickly, standing in front of me, his breathing has always been the same, but now I can smell his stronger, the smell is earthy and it is spicy, metallic too, for the rest I would like to be able to see him better, but my eyes won't let me, I just feel his head swaying from here to there, as if he were trying to understand something.

He is watching me, curiously, while I keep my eyes down.

Damn, I would love to see it and admire it as in a dream!

In the dream I remember that he is very tall, he does not have much armor except the important one, the plasma canon, the golden mask and with the marks of his clan, scars that he got them from so many hunts and battles, his color is a green very dark while on his chest and a yellowish covered with small black spots.

It has 4 jaws and sharp teeth and the hands are very strong with nails that are also dangerous, they can procure unimaginable cuts even to bring instant death.

The skulls he carries with him reminds me of how lethal and skillful he can be, I know for sure that his enemies will be dead in an instant in fear and panic.

Lost in the memories of the dream, I feel a single decisive and delicate touch at the same time, which forces me to raise my face towards him, my eyes are white and with nothing to be able to see inside, but he seems determined to continue to observe me with curiosity.

"You are strong! You can hunt, but I wonder if you can fight."

Finally he spoke ... well in somewhat incomplete English, but I understand what he means, so we are making progress.

I wanted to answer him, but I didn't really know what I could ever tell him, I was also ready to nod, but I remained motionless, curious too to see how far he wanted to go.

Once he has completed his curiosity, moving my face from left to right, I feel his hand and it moves on my slightly naked neck, I gasp a little for surprise until his hand hand was completely removed and then he passed me.

I hear the slow footsteps that vanish with each step he takes, until he fades away completely and vanishes into the forest.

And now what does this mean? 

What should I do ?

After our first meeting, I walked home, never ceasing to think about his touch and how much I would have liked him to stay with me even after, but I'm sure that in less than 2 days we will see each other again.
