Hungry for...Love?! (done)

[Deleted]

Dahlia had to think quickly, though she kept her eyes locked on Desmond's. Then she hit it right on the head. Dipping a hand into a pouch hanging on her side, which she had taken from the man, she pulled out a necklace. It was a large pendant using the symbol of evil.

She had actually found it a long time ago, but, it might throw the man off balance a little. "I found this on him," she said, tossing it to him.

[Devon]

Desmond caught the pendant and looked over it. He could tell it was old, but not whether the man had indeed owned it. Throwing the pendant back to her he sighed, "Regardless of whether he had ill intentions or not, you can't just go around killing someone on your own discretion."

[Deleted]

She shrugged, indifferent. "Well, I was only hoping to help you out, as he seemed to be slipping past you guys rather well. And considering," tilts head to listen. "That the Queen has a new baby and all..."

[Devon]

Desmond made a face at the woman and paced from side to side while he kept his eyes locked on hers. "You aren't to go near the Queen or any member of the royal family. I can prove nothing about your story, so I can't turn you in, but if I see you wandering around the castle or temple I'll get rid of you."

[Deleted]

She laughed, throwing back her head, loudly. After a second it cut off abruptly. "I have no plans for any of the royalty, nor for anybody in or around the castle. However," she idly looked at he nail. "However, keeping a follower away from the temple wouldn't be considered right"

[Devon]

"We all do things that wouldn't be considered right," Desmond replied calmly. "You're right though, I can't stop you from coming to the temple, but I won't let you enter and walk around freely either."

[Deleted]

"Fine," she said, flicking a hand at him, with a small smile, eyes half-closed, but intense. "Watch me all you want. In fact, watch me to your hearts content - while I'm in the temple."

[Devon]

"Fine," Desmond answered with a haughty glare. "I'll find you in the temple again." Turning around he quickly left. ((Okay they meet wherever you say next))

(oki-doki)

Dahlia was angered. She carefully kept herself away from the castle - which was actually not as hard as one would think - and, for a while, she even kept away from the temple. But now...she felt a need to pray to Taed, and while she could do it alone, without the shrine, she wanted to be in front of it.

Walking from the house she was currently staying in - the residents were making for wonderful 'donators' - she approached the temple.

[Devon]

Desmond remained vigilant on his promise to keep an eye out on Dahlia. Noticing that she was now headed towards the temple, he rushed out to intercept her. "What are you doing here?" he asked with a low growl.

[Deleted]

"My my, what a guard dog you are. I do hope they take you on walks occasionally. Let you use the bathroom?" She laughed and took a very close look at him.

"What is this? The dog is without a collar and leash?"

[Devon]

Desmond sneered at the woman, not appreciating her jokes. "I'm no ones dog," he replied. "I told you not to come back here."

[Deleted]

"Ah ah, you said I couldn't walk about freely inside the temple, not that I couldn't go in." Dahlia's eyes narrowed some.

[Devon]

"The message bears the same meaning," he commented dryly. "If I don't you walking around freely inside the temple, then I don't want you inside at all."

[Deleted]

"Hmm, really now. If you want to make sure I don't do anything, which you haven't proven I have, and I think I suffeciantly proved I haven't, then walk with me as I go to pray."
