Traeger sighed as Rowan came back down the stairs... her look was full of concern; he gathered her in his arms and murmured... "need to stay near tonight?... my home is right next door."
Traeger felt this was as good a time as any to broach his thoughts... "Rowan,I want to join you in your coven work; I know there are many things I could help with... and I want to give you a copy of the notes my late wife and I made in our travels. There are many valuable herbs and plants the Druids used that are not so common among witches today... I think you will gather a lot from them."
He could see she was grateful; and decided to plunge on... "I want to find a place of my own in the woods too, or build a small cottage... these young people here don't need me as much as I need them; and I want to pursue my life in my chosen way,along the same path you walk." He looked into her eyes... "I know you can never give your life over to me... to be mine as I would love to have you; but I would be part of your life; close enough that we can steal precious moments together when we are able; close enough that I can be of value to you and the coven... close enough that our hearts can know the other is but a few paces away."
Traeger knew he had thrown a lot at her... and holding her close whispered into her hair... "You don't have to give me answers now; but think on it... my goal is but to help you and love you... in the way I think you can accept."
