Logan's POV
I wake up to the sound of waves crashing against each other in the perfect sync as the warm morning winds slightly brushes over my face. Slowly I open my eyes and see Diana standing at the ledge of the boat, right where I was last night. She had a beautiful presences about her. The way the sun's rays highlight her dark hair and show off her slightly tan skin was almost unreal. She looked to good to be real. I sit upward and slide the blanket off me and stretch. My back muscles tense up from the slight pain in my left shoulder from the fight yesterday. I stretch my left arm further to try and ease some of the pain before I stand to my feet.

The wood below me creaks as I slowly approach Diana. She knew I was coming, based on her calmness. I too lean beside her on the railing of the boat and look her way. "Goodmorning, Logan" she greets with a warm smile. "Good morning to you too, Diana" we both smile before looking back out at the distance in front of us. Mostly light blue waters flowing so peacefully below us as the skyline shows brightly this morning.

"So, how far are we from our destination? " I asked, both of us staring out to the ocean. "About a hundred miles. We shall arrive tonight before dawn. " I nod before leaning back upward and turning my back to the view in front of us while slowly reaching into my pocket for one of my cigars. Once I feel it, I lift it up and out of my jeans along with a matchstick. "Shit" I mumbled, they were soaked, meaning they no longer have any use anymore. Diana looks looks at me and reaches for the cigar. "You shouldn't smoke. Cancerous cells may form inside the human body. " I toss the matches into the ocean and cross my arms. "I know. I just need one a week. I'm trying to quit." She smiles before tossing the cigar into the ocean. "Diana!" Now I only have one left. "Logan, I'm getting you out of here to save you. What use would I have if I allowed you to smoke? It'll eventually kill your body then you." My lips parted in complete disappointment before I turn around and walk up as closely to Diana as I possibly could while being inches from her face.

"Diana?" Her chocolate colored eyes watch mine intensively as the morning breeze sends shivers down our spines. "Logan" I put my hands on both sides of her cheeks and stare intensely into her eyes, just as if I were burning holes into them. "Can you read my mind? " she smiles but shakes her head. "No, but I think I read you."
"Really, How so?" I flirt as she slowly puts her hands on my shoulders. "I can feel the sense of lust against your body. A man's mind is completely different from a women's " I still was smirking, the kind of hold she had against me was strong... stronger than my strength. "What do you think of me?" I whispered as she slowly pushes me back. "I think your body is controlling your mind. Logan, some of man's worst decisions have been from the desire of the body." I furrow my brows as she slowly steps away and goes back to lean against the railing. I watch as she turn her back to me and cups her glass of tea, staring back at the ocean's beauty.

I take a few steps forward then stop.
"Diana? I wasn't trying to sleep with you. " I then continued my way to the back of boat.....

Diana's POV

"Diana? I wasn't trying to sleep with you." I turn my head to the left quickly in shock. I didn't mean to offend him, I just could sense the desire from inside of him. Logan is very disciplined, he's strong, able to control himself with most temptations, but I didn't think he was somehow attracted to me. I see him as a civilian. A man who needed help from someone like me. I want to help him, but I can't have a relationship. My mother would kill me for giving half of myself to a human... especially a man.

I set my tea down against two boards before gripping my black cloth in my hands tightly. The weather hadn't changed too much from last night's weather. Slowly I make my way over to Logan, he was sitting against some barrels with his back to me. I should explain myself to him. He's done nothing wrong.

"Logan, I want to explain myself to you." He looks up at me and shrugs.
"No need, Diana.. I just find myself very attracted to you, that's all. I wanted to Express my feelings. Sorry" he says as I sit down right beside his muscular arm. "Logan, we have a connection, it's not you, it's my mother. She made me promise I'd never love a man or anyone who was once an enemy to our families. Even if I wanted to pursue something with you, I couldn't " he leans his head back against the barrel not removing his eyes from mine. "You can just say you're not attracted to me. " I furrow my brows as my lips slightly fall open.
"Who said I wasn't attracted to you? "
His eyes go wide in shock as his muscles tense up through his white tank top. "Really? " I slightly nodded.
"Remember Logan, you're the second man I've ever spoken to, I'm still learning things about your kind." He nods looking confused before standing up. "Well, I'm glad to hear that, Diana.
See ya up in the front." He smiles then heads back to the front of the boat, giving me some space to think about everything we just said to one another.....

MIDNIGHT
Logan's POV

I was woken up by Diana's calming voice

I was woken up by Diana's calming voice. "Logan, we've arrived." My eyes slowly open as my awareness starts to kick in throughout my tired body. Slowly I sit up and push my hair back out of my face as Diana removes her cloth then grabs her sword and shield. I then get the strength to stand to my feet and slowly follow Diana as she lowers the tiny bridge like steps on the back of the boat. "Please just follow me. They've never seen men before" I nod as Diana slowly makes her way down the steps. I follow closely behind her. "Are we in themescreria?" I asked as she nods.
"They aren't expecting our presences so they will be armed. " I nodded as we now step onto the cool sand of the beach grounds. "It's beautiful here" I compliment. Though it's dark, you can still admire it's beauty. "Thank you. I was raised here" Diana says smiling as we walked side by side.
"I can only imagine what it must've been like.. waking up to this land. It looks like paradise. " she nods in agreement. "It truly was " we then hear the sound of horses calling out and the vibrations of the impact from their hooves digging into the ground at they're rate of speed. Diana quickly starts approaching the fierce group of women heading our way. "SISTERS, I ORDER YOU TO STAND DOWN!" She yells as I follow behind her. "TAKE HIM DOWN!" A woman in a gold crown yells as I instantly feel arrows puncture through my flesh and slice through my stomach. Diana tries to block it but misses and it hits me.

"AAGGHH!" I yell in pain as Diana yells once again.
"MOTHER STAND BACK. THE MAN IS WITH ME" the women and their horses stop motionless in their tracks as Diana instantly turns to me and grabs my hands. "Diana- I" I then fall to my knees as Diana too gets down on her knees. "Logan, it's ok. We're gonna help you. Logan? Logan- my eyes then roll to the back of my head as I feel myself fall to the side. After the impact, I saw nothing more....
