In the Forest (Part 2)

As stated here is part two, drum roll please...

Aymeth was taken aback. An elf, she knew there were strange things that lived in the woods, but she did not know that there were elves. Even to her race who were commonly mistaken for elves, they still believed them to be legend.
"How?" inquired Aymeth.
"I asked you a question first," replied Dayon.
Yes he had, and Aymeth knew it was right to answer it, but she was so curious as to who he was that she did not want to talk about herself. As she stared at him quizzically she said, "My name is Aymeth and I am a wolf nymph. you are currently staying in my den under the consent of my mother and me for my father is dead."
"Now that I have learned about you I shall answer your second question, being of mystical ability you will understand that things that do not want to be known will not be known. They have an uncanny ability to hide themselves as you have often hidden part of you Aymeth," stated Dayon, his voice was smooth and charming as he spoke. He also had the greatest of ease about him.
"Why were you injured?"
"Ah I will answer that if you answer but one of mine."
"And that is?"
"Can I see your wolf form?" Aymeth thought about that question. It was interesting, never in all her life has she been asked that question before, but then again she had also dated numerous men, who never thought twice about legends.
"If you wish." She transformed right before his eyes into this beautiful wolf that was absolutely amazing and intrigued Dayon all the more. He had heard many tales about the nymphs and there kind, but he had never meant one personally.
Aymeth let him have a good look and then she changed back once again into her human form.
"You are beautiful," Dayon said in awe.
"Thank you, now about my question," replied Aymeth patiently.
"Oh yes, as to my injuries, I was on the run," replied Dayon casually.
"What from?" asked Aymeth.
"It was a misunderstanding, I was in town preforming some magic, but with this christian wave of beliefs they began to call me a heretic and chased me out of town. But before I could gather my things and head out they gashed me deeply. I used what ever strength I had left and transported myself out of town to the woods, where you found me," stated Dayon, "It has always been elven tradition to show magic and tell of legends in the human villages, we do that to keep old ways alive, but it seems they are wilting faster than a flower in a desert."  His voice seem to flux ate in tone as the sadness seeped through.
"It seems very important to you."
"It is when everything you know seems to change before your eyes."
"I have known it."
"You know I thank you for saving my life, and taking the time to take care of me, you have a beautiful soothing voice." Aymeth smiled as Dayon did as he spoke.
"You are full of compliments aren't you?" asked Aymeth.
"Of course, especially when I am around a woman as beautiful as you." Dayon slowly stood up and kissed Aymeth on the cheek. Aymeth blushed.
"You better lay back down you need your rest," stated Aymeth.
"You are right, will you sing some more?"
"Of course I will." Aymeth began to sing the lullaby once more, which lured Dayon once more. Her voice was beautiful which was fitting for a beautiful woman.

Dayon knew that he should return to his people, but after a week with Aymeth, he couldn't leave her. They had fallen for each other. Two lovers, of two different races. Dayon had met Aymeth's mother, and she was more than willing to see them married. She could use another hand in helping with Aymeth's brothers and sisters. Dayon just wondered if the elves would approve though. They had allowed elves to marry men, but a nymph he had not heard of such a thing. To convince them and obtain their blessing would be difficult. Elves were very hard headed and set in their ways. They were difficult and hard to change, but maybe it would be allowed. Dayon wondered how he could let go of such a beautiful nymph whom he loved so much.
"Aymeth?" asked Dayon as he ventured his way out of the room.
"Yes," replied Aymeth coming to Dayon.
"Can you journey with me to the elves I need their blessing if I am to marry you my love," stated Dayon.
Aymeth hesitated, but her mother interupted. "She may go, she has my blessing. I can take care of the other four, they will be fine until you return Aymeth."
"But mother I am not sure," replied Aymeth.
"Listen with your heart," replied her mother.
Aymeth closed her eyes, she felt the sounds of nature around her and listened deep within her heart. Then she spoke. "I will go with you Dayon."

-Well I tried to make it fit into two parts, but I just got carried away with it. Part three will be up soon, hope you have enjoyed the story thus far. Thanks for reading!
