"I promise, dearest maiden of the earth," Darius whispered before he pulled back slightly so he could press a loving kiss to Rosalina's forehead.

Smiling at his love, Darius just pulled her close and breathed a soft sigh of contentment. It was in this moment of stillness that he finally realized that she could speak again and tears of joy prickled at his eyes. "Oh, love, you can speak again!" he exclaimed happily.

Finding her blush attractive, Darius leaned over and gently caressed her cheek. "I am so happy and much relieved, my love."

Darius just gave Rosalina a gentle smile. "I am just glad the wolves did not take you and that your voice has come back," he said softly.

Darius just smiled as he kissed Rosalina lightly.

Gareth paid no attention to the couple, all his attention was focused upon Calista. Hearing her breathing start to grow more labored, Gareth felt his heart freeze in his chest.

"Can we go to another room?" Rosalina asked.

"Let's go back to the guest room," Darius suggested.

Placing a hand on Calista's chest, Gareth chanted a spell to help the woman breathe.

Smiling at Rosalina, Darius helped the woman to her feet and putting his arm aroud her waist, walked with her back to the guest room.

Calista's breathing slowly began to even out again, much to Gareth's relief.

Once in the other room Rosalina took Darius in her arms again.

Darius wrapped his arms around Rosalina and held her in a tender embrace. "How are your cuts?" he asked her softly.

Sighing softly, Gareth brushed a strand of blonde hair back from Calista's face. "You are not to do any more healing for awhile," he whispered to the limp woman in his arms.

Sore." Rosalina told him. "I wouldn't let her tend me until she saw to you."
