There she was, that Konti woman he had seen so often. He probably wouldn't have seen her so much if he hadn't been intentionally looking for her, following her, and waited. Azeran had never been this fond of a woman. Sure, he had been searching for a strong healthy female that he could produce a son with, and he was dedicated to just that. A human wouldn't do, there were so many complications that could arise, premature death, miscarriage, being psychotic and suicidal from the fear of her own death. A kelvic wouldn't do, even though most Akalak saw no problem with it, there was something about it that made Azeran uneasy, a kelvic. What if his son was more prone to animalistic behavior because of it? What if his darker half was more of a beast than what they were already known to be? No, it wouldn't do. But then there was this woman, a Konti, beautiful red lips, those eyes that could see into the soul, or so he felt. All Konti Nakivak were taken so quickly, they were known to survive the birthing process so well, they seemed to accept the duty, no, actually embrace it with dignity. And did I mention the beauty? Azeran was so young though, only forty-six, and being around woman so few times made him, quite simply, awkward around them. He was taught that a Nakivak was just supposed to be approached and claimed, and now after all these days of following her, she actually was ready for claiming, ripe for the picking. Azeran nodded to himself as he stepped up, hastily walking towards the blonde from behind, though not trying to seem too aggressive nor too timid at the same time, and he tapped her on the shoulder. She was so small that he could have sworn he had two full feet of height on her. "Excuse me." Azeran spoke in clear Tukant without even wondering if the girl knew the Akalak language at all. He continued to speak after a bit of hesitation. "Do you have a Talvis?" Azeran was obviously nervous, he had noticed the silver bracelet on her arm, meaning she wasn't pregnant, she was ready for breeding, but he, for some reason, could not muster the courage to simply demand she fulfill her contract. |
