Moonspear [m] Stolen Light

Alaric hoped that in some small way Elentari could prove him wrong. But he had held hope before and it had broken him. So this was not something he would repeat to her. 

A quiet almost embarrassed chuff at her praise. Thank you. I try.

He did try to be good most of the time. He didn't always fall into it. But he tried. That counted for something.

Alaric shifted. I am a true trader. That means that I have shared my body with many in exchang for items, food, rest etc. I am not against it, but I also can restrain myself if asked. I would not ask  you to restrain yourself. I just ask for honesty. And clear boundaries that you want for both of us.

Alaric smiled down at her. He could share his body or he could keep it to himself. He just asked that she be honest with what she wanted from him and for herself.
