Love Barrels And Werewolves

The identities of Aira and Lion

"You're sure the arrow didn't come from the hunter?" asked Mr. Darto half-whispering.

Ren who was with Mr. Darto nodded confidently. "No, Sir. No hunter uses black copper arrows. Because it could damage the animals we hunted."

Hearing Ren's explanation, Mr. Darto immediately nodded in understanding. The line of anxiety on the man's face became increasingly clear. If not from the hunter, then how can Lion get the arrow?

"However, Mr. Darto ...." Ren stopped the sentence. His face looked riled up like there was something that could not be said. "Actually Win forbids saying this. But I can't seem to hide it anymore."

Mr. Darto looked at Ren closely. "What's wrong? Say."

For a moment Ren seemed to doubt. "Actually ...." Again the words are paused. Slowly he approached. With a little whisper finally said, "Actually when he found the Lion, he was not in a human form."

While the days changed, Lion slowly recovered.

Laras looked at the man before him with a longing gaze. Bandages still circling the Lion's body. But fortunately the man was able to be moved from the house of Mr. Darto.

"Your eyes will come off if you keep looking at me like that, Laras," Lion said with a slight misbehavior. Who did not blush upon awakening and was already rewarded with a sweet look from this woman.

But Baras did not care. Even if it was true that his eyes were loose, he would continue to stare at Lion using his remaining senses.

"God! Don't make me impatient to kiss you!" threaten Lion's.

But instead of being afraid, Laras just smiled with a non-transferred look. Slowly his face approached, eroding the distance between himself and the Lion. "I've been waiting for you to do it."

For a moment both views were locked. A few seconds, until finally Lion pulled Baras. Lock the woman's movements. Then he slowly knitted his lips gently.

After a while, the kiss came off. Lion looked at Laras feelingly. It was like a dream for him. Although the reality of the rebellion still lingered clearly in the head.

"I love you, Laras," Lion said sincerely.

The barrel that had the same feeling just immediately retreated. But the smile did not escape from her beautiful face. "After you want me to forget everything. Now still dare to say such a romantic thing?" He clucked, pretending to be annoyed.

However, it seems that the joke Laras slightly opened the wound in Lion's heart. The man immediately clasped the woman's hand. "I'm sorry. You know, I had no other choice at the time," he said with a regretful look.

No longer having a problem with it, Laras immediately nodded in understanding. Of course he didn't even blame Lion from the start. The most important thing is how the man survived now.

A few moments later the woman got up. "I'll make breakfast."

When the Lion waited in good faith to wander far away, by then Laras had already come out with a tray in hand.

"Isn't this nostalgia?" laras said when the food was on the table.

There was no answer, Lion just nodded in agreement. Of course, for him with Laras like this is still a dream that makes him a little bit out of reality.

"By the way ... How did you get shot by an arrow?" ask Laras in the middle of breakfast.

Hearing that, Lion paused for a moment. The frenzy on the face that was a little hidden now looks very clear. Until finally he told me everything that happened to Laras. About the secret between humans and werewolves, until when the rebellion in Fantasiana occurred.

Instantly the eyes were rounded. "So you're the king of the werewolf herd?" said surprised.

Lion nodded. "But now it seems like I'm no longer a king."

Not wanting his lover to feel sad alone, Laras grasped tightly the hand of Lion. Although no sentence came out, but it was enough to provide support.

Until after a long time, Laras finally re-opened his voice. "When you first drifted away. Was that not an accident, either?"

Slowly Lion nodded. "They wanted to finish me off from the beginning."

A wounded feeling suddenly gnawed at Laras' heart. He just felt slashed, let alone Lion who became the main character in the tragedy this time?

The back of Lion's hand was wiped with feeling. "What are you going to do now?"

Lion flinching. His face seemed to think. Of course he had thought of a way out even since he left Fantasiana. But looking at the current situation, it seemed impossible if he was rash to attack.

"I want to strike back. But with my own circumstances, I don't seem to have a chance." Lion said with a face of despair.

"Lion." The barrel tightened the grip on the man's hand. "Whatever happens, I will always be by your side. So never feel alone, huh?"

Instantly the tension that had flowed in the Lion diminished. Getting support from Laras seemed to open up a new path for him. Until something suddenly remembered.

"Wheel. Do you think I can get human reinforcements?" ask Lion.

For a moment Laras fell silent. He hesitates how to explain the Lion's state to people who might even still consider the man to be human.

"If I confess and convince them, is it possible that they will believe?"

Unwilling to make Lion sad, Laras immediately nodded. "Maybe if we try" he said. Then handed over the fish that had not been touched. "Now finish your food first. We'll think about it together after this."

When breakfast is over, the sun slowly rises and falls leaving the contest.

The moon hangs pretty in the sky. Accompanying Laras and Lion who were sitting under a catapult tree, reminiscing about what they had done before.

"You remember the first time you kissed me here?" tanya Laras who was immediately replied to a nod by Lion. "At that time for the first time I felt a strange thump in my chest. I think I started to notice you from that moment on."

Laras turned his head, looking at Lion who was also giving him a longing look. "That means, I've already fallen in love with you, Laras."

It turns out that it is true, together under the moonlight can get unexpected romantic moments. Slowly Lion's gaze turned on Laras' lips. But he had not yet dipped, a boisterous voice sounded closer and closer.

"You hear that?" lion asked as his ears caught many people calling his name.

The barrel that heard faintly immediately nodded. "Is that the voice of the people?"

Not so long ago, a group came from the village with a fire torch in each other's hands. Then in front of them, there was Pak Darto and Win who led.

"Where's Lion?" win shouted loudly, "get out now you, Lion!"

Finding that, Laras immediately told Lion to hide. "They brought fire!"

But not yet had time, the group had already found Lion who was about to leave.

"Lion! Tell us the truth!"

Instantly tension covers the bodies of Laras and Lion. They strengthen each other. While in front of the two groups with a firm face as if to finish them off.
