It was the big day, and she held her heart weigh tons more than she had felt before. The wedding. Her parents didn&t NEED to be there, but they had. Her father stood out to the side as her mother, Head of the Entertainer council looked on as well as the other council members. The representative of the Boss was there. Announcing them, and she walked in with a heavy gulp. Decorated in beautiful jewelry and cloths that looked as though she were some greek goddess or a spirit how it flowed behind her. Waiting for her at the end, it was like judgement day. This was the closing chapter in her life of an entertainer.. she couldn&t make Geisha in time. Now she would proceed with becoming a royal.. and do.. nothing.. Everything given to her.
She hadnt even been out in the roguelands! Espoir had promised her that one day- she would take her.. But now.. She was setting forward. She promised herself- PROMISED. That with their marriage.. she would start over and give this a chance.. Try and be happy.. Like she taught Espoir to be. A soft, inner glow of beauty was shown.. LIke the geisha she always wanted to be- she didn&t have a smile but she had a delicate face. One wouldn&t want the councils to get a bad idea after all.
"Upon our prides and the Goddess of Vows, this union- proof of the pride&s bond will commense. The delicate Abila, and Knightly Jelani- by the blood of you two- be bound forever."

Jelani was already standing there in front of the representative, watched as Abila made her way towards them. Over the last few days he had been going on his own hunts to provide for her. Different meats from Wildebeast to Gazelle, to the large desert birds. Sometimes talking of old battles of his and his adventures, promising to take her to the rogue lands when it was safe. He had many friends out there, that he had met along the way. Most lions, but there were others. Trying to get close to her, as she seemed to want it. He had never opened up himself in this way before. His eyes on her, beautiful and graceful. His. He couldn't help but lower is head in shame as she couldn't smile, as if this was his decision. His face growing cold, and distant as he turned toward the speaker. Still until he had to move, as they cut his paw. What was another scar? This one for the pride, as a token to be known you were taken. He bowed his head to the speaker, his eyes drifting over towards her parents for a moment before turning back to the speaker.

Chi Sohma The cheetah was serene, which could best describe her reaction other than the fact that she could admit Jelani wasn't as bad as she had previously thought. He hunted for -her- and made her feel like she may/could be apart of something.. There was a chance here- and she was enjoying their times.. She took a hard gulp again- secretively. Careful with every motion in her body as to not show how nervous she was. How regretful or how excited. A fluster of emotions..
A cheetah came and cut the slits of both of top of their paws.. then joined them. Mixing their blood together. Her perfect body was now scarred. Because of this union.. She looked up at him, a gentle look..
"And he will take care of you- as his wife and your 'danna ' your patron.. Your union will symbolize everything that is us- and there ever was in us. Keep it strong, and learn from one another. And grow....
As all of us as witness- You two are now lifemated. To kiss be the symbol of acceptance."
Her ears went flat and slight embaressment can be felt upon her. Even a blush if it could be hinted upon her dark pelt..

Jelani looked to Abila while the speaker went on that seemed to be like babblings to him. It was their ritual, he understood what this meant. And he wasn't certain she did. Handing his paw over to mix their blood, she was now bound to him and he to her for the rest of their days. Jelani looked to the other cheetah as he told them of the symbolic kiss, his dark eyes falling on him until looking to Abila. Cold nose to hers, he found it to be warmer than expected. When the deed was done, he found himself more anxious than he ever imagined himself. Turning to leave he found himself more than relieved to get back to what his, "normal" life was with his new mate.

When his wet nose touched her- the furiousness of a blush could be felt. It was the first time with a male to touch noses- and the fact that they shared a first kiss in front of the council.. She had pushed on his nose gently.. Accepting their bond..
"The bond is strong for these two." The speaker lastly said. "Our approvals..and blessings.." Her parents could be found with a painted screne of emotions. They would probably have congradualted her and still threatened Jelani's life if anything were to happen to their daughter. It was expected of parents after all. And as soon as she turned around to leave... A hybrid stood at the wake of the tunnel, not too terribly far off...
The tension came from within her chest and sprouted like wildfire as she stopped her walk in mid step. Like as if she were frozen and the shock was obviously painted on her face.. How.. how long had she been standing there?

Chi Sohma Jelani gave a short nod to her parents as they left the chamber and through the corridors to see a hybrid standing their, the same age as Abila or roughly. Perhaps an old child hood, but his female seemed...apprehensive about moving along. His side brushed against hers in attempts to move her forward. His eyes watching her, "Is there something the matter?" he inquired softly, yet with a stern tone.

She.. wanted to move but she couldn't find motion in her legs. But they weren't moving no matter how much she tried.. Just eyes wide.. as the council moved away to walk to their own dens through the opposite side. Collaborating and speaking amongst themselves- too busy to see what was happening..
Espoir's blue eyes- showed 'fire' within them. Disapprival, and disappointment. When was she going to know that ABILA was getting MARRIED. Yes, there had been rumors- but Abila said nothing. Just dropped her like a bad habit.. That rage-... usually Espoir would voice out her anger. But no- that pained feeling was something more than that.. There was no words.. But from across the room she knew the effect she had..
Which, she then proceeded to walk closer to the couple. The fighter currency that she had become FOR abila- now was without reason.. Walking up next to her.. Slow in pace. With hushed words that left her love's lips.. "Traitor."
Having walked passed Abila as if nothing happened.. Nothing.. And Abila's eyes quivered at its ends.. and tears started to run- but still she couldn't move except for putting her head down to cover her face..The hide the shame..

It had been a couple days since the wedding, and Abila had been in a funk since then. No matter the food he hunted, flowers found or gifts aquired she seemed to be stumped. More quiet than normal and wouldnt confess anything to him. It was starting to frustrate him, to the point he had stopped trying. He'd let her come to him on her own time he supposed.

Geisha by popularity was natural now though she had retired from her 'entertaining others'. But that, was no longer conflicting her. It was ESPOIR. The night she got married- that encounter shook her very core. The only woman she didn't want to find out.. Had to find out this way..
Devastated- she didn't eat for days, and the gifts her mate brought- she was blank and she couldn't shake the feeling. Til one day, while blankly starrning off in to the pride from their raised den. ( Wall of crater )
Finally she spoke after all the silence they endured.
"When ... are you going to take me away from here." That unsettling question... and her voice seemed zapped of all its former glamour.

"Leave?" Jelani stated almost emotionless, he didnt know how to look at her. She showed him no affection for his doings, not even a word...until now. "Even if we left we would have to come back, this is our home," he stated simply. "Is there something you'd like to talk about?" He asked as he sharpened his claws on an old tree bark.

Slowly she looked down from her intense gaze, then turned her head, not to face him but to show she was acknowledging his existantce. "You said you would show me the roguelands." Then she lowered her head, and lifted her body up, as if dragging.
"I... dread this place...Even just for the time allowed- I want to escape.. Please. The air is so thick I can not breath Sir Jelani." She was just beginning to be happy with Jelani until their wedding day when that all changed. As if Espoir had sapped the very energy and life out of her.
".... I wouldn't know if you hated me- My words seem to be caught up in the worst sort of rubbish from a woman, please do not mind me." Seemingly detached.

Jelani looked to Abila, "Yes, I will...but it is still required of us to return..." sighing softly. His eyes finally drifting to her, his ears laid back on his head, still irratated that this was the first she had mentioned anything. And that she wanted to leave? It seemed drastic to say te least. "I can see if it is safe for the both of us..." his brows furrowing as if in thought.. Moving towards her finally, he sat a few inches away from her. "Tell me why, and I will do my best for us to leave. But I cannot do anything for if you aren't honest with me."

The female was at a loss of what she could do. She heard about so many rumors, it was hard to sum up how she felt in a sentence or in a day.. But as quiet as she was, maybe talking about it could help.
She had been terribly unfair up til now, so when he sat inches away from her- she looked to him with a face full of hurt and inner pain and resorted closer to his side, wrapping her tail around him. "I have not been honest with myself neither... and too unfair to everyone." Safety... Thats what all her life was about. Safety.. But staying here would suffrocate her. Raising her face closer to his. "I cannot breath with so much tension here. I feel anger here, like everyone is.. But most of all. The one I didn't want to ever be mad at me- I destroyed her and didn't even apologize..."
He probably didn't know still what she was talking about but in her mind, thats all she thought about and it was engulfing her completely and tearing her apart.. But at least it was nice to feel someone next to her again, now that she tried to take his hand to help.
