Like Mother Like Daughter? (Ask)

[Jedi Master Kael Caivera]

I am not going to corrupt her. Should she choose the path I have taken it will be of her own accord. I can give her anything she needs or desires.

*He reaches out for Kyra.*

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She looked into his eyes not sure if she believed him. As he reached for her, she didn't back away, but he could sense her wariness about him.*

"Promise me that. Promise me that you'll let her make her own decisions and won't force her to join you."

[Jedi Master Kael Caivera]

Even though I am standing in as Dark Lord for my Empress in her abscence I will not try to sway her influence. She seems to have an aversion to the Dark Side as it is. In her mind I was a Jedi Master as were you. So she does not like seeing me as a Sith Lord. I will guide her only if she chooses the path of the darkside.

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

"Don't believe the stories she tells you. Adesia has had her hand in this...I am sure of it. You don't know what I know of that woman. She will do anything to destroy me....anything."

[Jedi Master Kael Caivera]

I don't believe her stories. But that is an example of what she thinks. It has giver her an aversion to the Dark Side. And trust me, if Adesia was half as cunning and insidious as I knew her to be, I don't doubt you for one second Kyra.

*Ravinos moved up infront of Kyra and ran his hand against her cheek.*

Now, do you trust that I won't try to sway her?

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She closes her eyes and leans her head close to his hand as her breath caught a little. Furrowing her eyebrows and opening her blue eyes, she looked at him with confusion in them. Him being this close was intoxicating to her.*

"I...I don't know, Ravinos. I know your love of your family and I know of your desire for her to be at your side...."

[Jedi Master Kael Caivera]

*Ravinos definitely knew it was Kyra in control of the body at the current time because only he could make Kyra swoon this much.*

And how would you know of such intentions? I respect family. I will not deny that I would wish she were at my side but I respect her right to choose even more. I will not influence her. I can assure you of that my darling.

*Ravinos pulled Kyra into him and kissed her passionately as he felt her begin to melt into his arms.*

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*She seems tense at first as he kisses her. Yet, she begins to lose herself in the kiss as the emotion and passion overfloods her senses. A moan is heard deep in her throat as she wraps her arms about him. Her legs seem to go weak under her. Then, she catches herself and pulls back a little. Her face is flushed and her eyes refuse to meet his gaze.*

"I can't do this again, Ravinos. I can't have you one minute and then gone the next. My heart can't bare it."

[Jedi Master Kael Caivera]

I am here now. But you must have other matters to attend to don't you? When you have taken care of them come back to the ship. You can see your daughter when you return.

*Ravinos had never had Kyra turn away from him like this before. He could feel that she needed some time away from him to think clearly.*

[Lady Zahra/Jules]

*His words "I am here now" filled her with hope that things might be different this time. She nodded her head at his words but still refused to meet his gaze as she moved away from him increasing the distance and regaining her head.*

"I'll return in a fortnight."

*Saying nothing else, she begins to walk down the corridor but stops and turns around finally meeting his gaze.*

"Please keep her save, Ravinos."

*She looked like she was about to say more but her head bowed and she turned around and walked further down the corridor towards her ship. She didn't even bother telling Kytari she was leaving. If she did, she was afraid it would upset her daughter to no end.*
