Day 12 of @14daysdalovers (ᵔᴥᵔ)
Pairing: F!Lavellan x Solas
Summary: Solas reflects and craves for what he’s lost.
On occasion, during a lapse of judgement, Solas watched Analin in her dreams. The dreams were always of her own mind’s creations, only taking the liberty to make minor alterations here and there to hide his presence.
He never appeared before her, and hardly ever visited her dreams in his human form, feeling that his wolf nature would more seamlessly blend to the natural environments that often took hold of Analin’s dreams.
Solas saw her wandering now in a dense, colorful forest of her own creation. Was she contemplating? Was she lost? Was this a place from her memories? He watched as she stopped by a tree, placing a gentle hand on its trunk.
It had been months now since he had last seen her and he found himself craving her, feverishly, ardently. He craved the delicate line of her jaw, the slope of her breasts, the curves of her waist and hips. He craved her gaze, azure eyes ever bright, eager, curious. He craved her soft lips on his, and the way her silky black hair felt on his fingers. He craved the feel of her tanned skin as it brushed against his.
He craved her kindness, her unconditional love and acceptance. He craved her interest and willingness to learn. He craved her intelligence and open-minded perspectives that kept him intrigued.
That is the least to say that he desired her mind, body, and soul.
Analin suddenly turned from her wandering and looked, spotting him through the trees. She hesitated for a moment and he stood frozen in place, heart dropping. He found that he couldn’t move as he realized that Analin was beginning to walk towards him. The puzzled expression that graced her features now only indicated that she couldn’t have known it was him.
She stopped short a mere few inches away, crouching and outstretching her hand as if she meant to pet his head. But as much as he burned for her to reach him, to feel her, to reveal himself to her in his true form and kiss her, to forgo all of his duties for that glimmer of hope in starting a life with her...he knew he couldn’t.
He tensed and drew away from her slowly.
The soft intonation of her voice is what set him off, prompting him to turn away quickly. He then ran into the forest, leaving her behind in her dream, without so much as a backwards glance.
