Chapter 22: Lycans

Aya's POV

As I ran, I could hear Master Liu calling out to me. 

"Aya! Please stop!" Ducking into my hut, I hurried over to my fire pit and sat down on my heels. Reaching to my right, I picked up some dried kindling, and sticks placing it all on top of the low burning fire. The glow of it spread to the walls and I could see the silhouette of him standing in the doorway with a hand on each side of the frame. Master Liu would stand there all night if I hadn't invited him in. He was that much of a gentleman. 

Moving around the fire pit, he finally sat down next to me. After a few moments of tense silence, he finally spoke. "It's nothing to be embarrassed about Aya. I'm sure that Enikil was just doing his best to scare me off. Why would the Gods try and stake claim on your virginity anyway? It makes no sense."
