Brevine put her hand on her sword hilt. She picked up Horens sword as well.

"Then we will fight and protect him." Brevine motioned to the few warriors that had managed to follow them from the safe house to here.

"You men will fight with me. No one gets through us to reach Katie or Horen." She pulled her own sword and stood in the doorway only moving aside as mages arrived and took away the other wounded. Soon only Horen, Katie and her Elven companion remained. The healer returned to speak with Katie just as Horen groaned.

Horen groaned and wheezed as he clutched at his chest. The last thing hed remembered was being thrown through the wall and a piece of the metal from it piercing his armor and chest. He opened his eyes and gasped trying to focus his blurry vision. He was too weak to try and sit up so he stayed down as he gasped for air. His lungs hurt, every breath sent needles of pain through his chest.

Kate was holding Horen on the bed upstairs. He was undressed and Kate was giving him a sponge bath. She had him clean underclothes and in a light weight linen, sleeveless tunic. His lung had stopped bleeding, she had his chest bandaged and his deep flesh wounds were healing.

Horen opened his eyes and clutched his chest. Kate was lying beside him and placed her hand over his, that covered his chest.

"Your alive again my love gift. Shallow breaths. That piece of metal punctured your left lung. Do not move. Brevine and the battlemages brought you to the safe house. Brevine is a bit sore, she is safe."

Kate reached for the rebarb she placed on the floor by the bed. She had cleaned Horen's blood off of it be fore he woke up.

"I saved this. I am nor sure if you wanted to keep it or make something from it."

Kate placed the twisted metal on the bed.

"I was able to save your life with a gift from the Ancient One. He is a very special dragon."

Horen calmed as Kates hand and words soothed him. He slowed his breathing to make it less painful. Then the sat up. He clenched his jaws to keep from voicing his pain as his wounds protested movement. He craddled his chest for a moment then he gathered his strength and will before he stood. He swayed a moment then steadied on his feet. His wing twitched and spread a little to provide balance as he looked around the room. He looked around before moving towards the door. He had his mind in his old habit. After a fight when he was hurt he would generally stay quiet for a while. He had to hide his pain to avoid being tortured for weakness. It was something that his mind and body adapted to survive to worst times during the Arena seasons. He made in to the bathroom sink and dipped his hands into the water basin. He leaned against the wall for a moment, his strength was fading. he didnt know how long he had been out for. He slowly sat down by the window. He looked out over the snowy pass. He could have sworn it hadnt snowed here when they had left.

------

Feras and Nora were training in the small practice yard. It had been only two days since Katie had brought Horen back to this place. She and Brevine had barely beaten the light blizzard that had blown through the pass. They rested a bit as they sat and tended some light bruises and nicks.

Brevine rested on the corral fence nearby. She hadnt once let her guard down since shed arrived at the house carrying Horen. But strangely, shed not once gone in to see him. Feras was curious as to why she wasnt near Horen at a time when he really needed her.

Kate hated to let Horen be by himself. She knew he was not in any physical danger. Kate hoped Brevine would take a break from guard duty.

*Sister, come in from the cold. Horen is awake now. We can to portal to home. Have you seen Papa?*

Kate exited the room and left the door open, "Feras, Horen is up. He's going to be sore a while. You may see him."

Feras and Nora were on their feet the moment Kate finished speaking. Feras went to head inside but Brevine stopped him by blocking the way with her wing.

"Trust me wolf. Your brother wont speak to you right now. He more than likely hasnt said a word to even Katie. Hes in a very bad way right now. We cant rush this. Ive seen it enough times to know we will only make it worse. He will come to us when he is ready. Just let him be for now."

Feras wanted to argue, to just go around the dragoness, but he saw the deep sadness in her eyes as she looked from him to the upper floors windows. he looked up to the windows for a moment then back to her. He sighed and shook his head.

"I believe you. You wouldnt lie to us, and you have known him longer than we have." He slumped his shoulders and headed inside anyway. He stopped in the den to warm himself at the fire while he sat on the sofa. Nora followed him and sat with a paw in one of his own. She knew it was hard for her mate right now.

Brevine went inside and stopped by the kitchen for some water before finding Kate.

"Last I saw of your father was when he and that mage friend of yours tested the portal earlier. I think they should be back soon."

Kate saw Brevine stop Feras and looked back at bedroom she left Horen. She knew Brevine was right, Horen was no longer the man she brought home a month ago. She met Feras and Nora and comforted then.
"Horen is out of the worst and nature's call for the remainder of his healing. He sore and I am sorry you have to wait. Due to Horen's past he needs to be alone. Please, come have a cup of tea, then you can see Horen."

Kate had not seen any of them since the rescue. "I am glad we are all together again."

Kate stood on tiptoe, "Sister, may I hug you. I did not get to spend any time with you. Are you alright?"

Brevine let Katie hug her. She spoke with the mind link.

"Sister, Horen is not well, not as well as you believe. I know this because of the link we share. He suffers quietly, as he was trained to do for many painful years."

Feras nodded to Kate as she hugged Brevine. but he stayed silent as he stared into the low fire in the fire place.

Kate hugged her sister dragonheart's soft, leathery muzzle. "I have not left him alone with his painful thoughts. I know his past haunts him. I too know you feel his pain. Go to him, he needs his dragonheart. He missed you soo much."

Kate walked be the fireplace and held Feras's hand. "I know your in pain too Nora. I care for you all. I feel the feeling of dred that this pace give off. As soon as Allen and Papa return, we will leave. Please believe me Horen's going to be alright."

Nora silently rubbed her sore ribs.

"I will be fine Katie. Nothing was seriously injured..... I am just worried for my brother...... Draco was trying to kill him Katie..... You didnt see the sheer number of Goblins that he sent out before I tried to call the fight......" Nora looked over at her mate and then to Kate. "Then when the fight began..... I could only try to get down the stairs before i cant remember anything but waking up covered in dust and rubble..... I searched for him.... But I couldnt find him..... It took me hours to find out where the wounded were, but your fathers mages had escorted me back here to wait for you......" She looked away. She felt as if she had let them all down.

Feras placed a paw on her shoulder.
"It was not your fault love. None of us thought Draco himself would fight!"

------------------

Brevine shifted to her new wolf form and walked up the stairs. She found Horen cleaning his armor at the bathroom wash basin. The water was a ruby red as he finished wiping down his chest plate. He sat it down and leaned on the counter for a moment. In the silence she could hear his slightly labored breathing.

"Horen." She said his name lightly to keep from startling him. He turned to her and froze. She chuckled at the look on his face.

"I told you dragons can take the form of our mates love." She went to him then. She placed a paw on his cheek as his tired eyes took in her own face. "Love, rest. You cant hide the pain from me. You never could. The bond tells me when you arent well..... Just as you knew when I wasnt well..... When you shared and took the pain of every torture....." Tears welled in her eyes. She put her forehead against his. "Oh how I hated being separated from you..... Wishing for freedom, for a lifting of the pain you were forced to suffer! But we are free now Horen...... Just as you promised me so long ago...... Dont hide from those who care love. Your brother, Katie.... Me.... We all care and feel your pain, even if not physically. Draco hurt us all by trying to kill you." Her eyes flared blue. "Let us help you..... Dont turn us away my mate....." She kissed him as she finished and he whimpered. She held him as he seemed to collapse into her arms. She felt his tears in her fur as they ran from his closed eyes. He never said a word, only let his anguish flow with those tears.

-Katie..... We need you..... - Brevine took Horen back to the bed and held him as he silently cried in her arms.

Kate ran upstairs and opened the door. She saw Brevine in her anthro form embracing Horen. Seeing them together warmed her heart. Kate knew their bond was tight and the both loved her. Kate was not jealous; she was so happy. Tears formed in her eyes as she was feeling the love between them.

"What do ypu need, Sister? Together after many weeks apart. I love you both. This is healing you both."

Kate placed her arms around them both. She saw both their feral faces were wet from tears. She got wet wash cloths and a dry towel from the bathroom. She saw Horen had started cleaning his armor.

She wiped their faces and smiled. "You will see Brevine, Horen is more accepting being touched and held. I never left him alone since he arrived."

Brevine smiled sadly at Katie.

"I have waited so long to hold him in my arms Sister...... I wanted to since the day he showed me not all in this world were hateful or evil......" She kissed Horens forehead. He seemed to have fallen asleep in her arms. "Help me put him down to rest sister."

Kate held his legs and swung them in the bed. Kate covered the lower part of his body. "I am glad your here and he is not feeling your pain and anguish. Horen is a special wolf. I can understand why you chose him as you dragonheart. Brevine, do you want to stay with him? I can bring you hot tea and a light dragon snack. When we get home, you may hunt all the stags you want. He is a bit heavy after eating Ann's cooking."

Brevine smiled.

"Yes i will stay with him." She thought a moment. "He is special...... I cant say exactly why we bonded, why i chose him...... It was a feeling in my heart and I followed it..... As for hunting..... I would love to hunt as a wolf..... To feel what Horen has felt........." She had remembered the faint feeling of elation some weeks ago when Horen hunted for the first time since he had been free.

Kate hugged her before she walked out. "You both will have only happy memories and feelings. We should be able to leave soon."

Kate knew wolfes had sensitive smells and for now Horen would have Brevine's scent as he slept. When Kate climbed downstairs, she saw her father, Jonathan, and Allen rush inside. She greeting all with a warm smile and hug. "How did you three make it?"

They all removed their cloaks and sat in the parlor.

Jonathan gave Feras a pat on the back, "It's just snowing here. Why?"

Feras nodded to Jonathan but stayed quiet. He hadnt said much since theyd gotten back from rescuing Brevine. Nora nodded as well.

"Will be able to leave soon Lord Lyons?" Nora was anxious to get Feras and Horen away from this wretched place.

Lyons looked over to Allen and saw everyone arrived safely. He saw Feras and Nora sad faces turned hopeful.

Allen looked at everyone in the room, "We can leave right away. Where are Brevine and Horen?"

Kate ran to the stairs, Horen is sleeping and Brevine is with him.

Allen nodded and raised his hands, "In a flash all in the house were transported to the manor in Wildwood."

Horen and Brevine were in Horen's bedroom. The rest were in the parlor in the manor. The mages were back in their homes. Allen saw that all were back. Kate mindspoke to Brevine. *You two alright?*

Horen struggled in a strong grip as the shock of the magic woke him. He shook his head tiredly trying to shake loose the tiredness and clear his blurred vision. He growled as he struggled.

"Shhh love.... We are back in Katies home..... We are safe." Brevines cool voice pierced his mind.

He froze at her voice. The he hesitantly tried to turn around. The grip loosened and he found himself facing Brevines Sapphire eyes. He noticed she looked like his own self.... He raised a shaky paw and touched her cheek. She smiled and leaned into his paw.

"I dreamed of this..... So many times my dragon........."Was all Horen could say as Brevine kissed him. He smiled and relaxed as she pulled away. He heard Katies yelled question and Brevine answered before he could.

"Yes Sister. We are both awake and fine......" Horen smiled but then sighed as he felt the pain in his his chest. It hurt every time he breathed, like a dull ache that had no real cause he could find.

Kate left Brevine and Horen alone for a bit. "Feras, Nora, please give Horen time alone with Brevine. I know you both want time alone with Horen. Come eat, afterward you may have time with him. I am so sorry you are having to wait. There will time he will spend with you. His lung was punctured when the arena's upper deck began to fall. He is recovering nicely. You traveled a very long ways looking for him. Feras, cheer up. Your brother is happy and no longer feels Brevine pain. They have been together a while and are very close. The have a bond stronger than lovers. The hear each others thoughts and feel one anothers pain. Give the a moment of happiness. The share freedom together and they are safe. I thank you both for helping Horen. Feras, you helped me so much."

Lyons had discarded his disguise and stepped toward Nora, "Thank you for playing your part. Draco has no idea who you are. He is furius Horen got free again. Here is $700 ducats for your help. Feras you get $500 for your help."

His lordship hands each of them a bag of money.

After a while of just silently enjoying Brevines closeness, and the feeling of both of them being free, Horen got up.

"I am hungry Brevine.... And I am sure my brother and sister wish to see me as well." he rubbed his stomach with a blush as it growled loudly.

Brevine chuckled and took Horens paw leading him into the hall.

"Then let us find you a meal love." She lead him downstairs. From the scents the others had just sat down for dinner. She lead them to the large dining room but stopped as Horen hesitated. He eyed the sleeveless tunic and plain britches he was clothed in. She smiled. He had always worried over appearance an odd quality for a slave she assumed.

"Love you look fine. Afterall my own clothes are just as bland. She was wearing a brown tunic and britches. She had laughed at the 'dress' she was asked to wear. She preferred functionality over looks. She pulled Horen into the room and waited for them to be noticed as Horen just stayed silent.

---------

Feras And Nora had gratefully accepted the payments. They would send them home when they could to help their village. They both knew Horen needed time with his mate. Not only had they been separated, but they had been tortured all that time..... It was enough to drive most wolfkin insane. Feras supposed the unique bond of a dragon had saved his brothers sanity..... But he knew his brother harbored a growing and festering hate and anger for what had been done to him. He was thinking about it when the maid called them to dinner. He sat with Nora as Lyons and Johnathan came to take their seats. Katie and her sister came in and sat just as drinks were brought in.

He listened to the others chat about family things when he felt the rooms temperature change slightly. He knew most wouldnt notice it. But his brother gave off a slightly cooling air. He sat up and turned as Brevine dragged her brother somewhat unwillingly into the room.

Lyons looked up at new arrivals. "Welcome Brevine. Please join us. If you like you may hunt all stags are fair game.. uhm prey. Horen, lad, Kate told me all that happened to you. If you want, Ann will serve you dinner in your room."
