Chapter I |{}| Bar Fights
"Girl, sit down before you kill somebody." A man spoke, stood between me and a drunken man whom was being held back by his fellow companions, both glaring into each other. I unclenched my balled fists and took a deep breath before turning.
"Fucking bitch." The drunken man slurred out between panted breaths, just after the innkeeper had returned to his place. Without even thinking i turned, a balled fist once again landed a clean but harsh punch across the lads face, a small grin perking on my cold lips.
"And that's what happens when you cross paths with a pissed woman~." I cooed before turning and taking my place back at the bar, rolling my eyes as i slid my hood back over my pale face, taking a sip from my ale soon after.
"Tch, i told you to pack it in." The innkeeper almost muttered.
"Yeah well you know i don't stand for shit like that. Especially when it comes from an immature man." I grunted, taking a deeper swig from my Ale.
Although something felt off, as though i was being watched. Almost stalked. But that feeling was soon brushed under the carpet when the seat besides me had been claimed. Another hooded figure...
"Ale, please." He grunted out, and my eyebrow cocked, i knew exactly who it was...
Geralt, the white wolf, or also known as the wielder of the sword of destiny.
I never thought he was a real being though, only ever heard from him in songs and rumors that carried through different parts of the land.
I was soon snapped out of my thoughts when he had spoken.
"You sure do pack a punch huh." My brow jerked even further and i let out a light scoff.
"Oh that? That was nothing. I could have done worse." Geralt scoffed at my comment, grunting a little after taking a guzzle of his ale.
"Might i say, you reek of striga guts." I gagged out, smirking as a eyed him up.
"Yeah well, worth the coin." I nodded in agreement, before finishing of my ale and taking a stretch.
"Well, i must be off, things to do and places to be." I stood carefully, soon making my way out. "See you around Witcher." I waved back to the mysterious man as i did so, yawning as i made my way to the so called 'bounty board.'
I stood in front of the corked board, scanning over for another job as i was slowly running low on coin. One caught my attention, a wraith, spotted down in the vizima cemetery. "A fair pay too." I muttered to myself, turning abruptly, almost bumping into a tall, silver haired man.
"Ah, I'm sor- Oh it's you again. Stalking me now are you?" I teased, taking a small step back as he rolled his eyes.
"No, but i do have an offer. A rare one at that."
This caught my attention.
"A man ran into the tavern wailing on about a Demon creature lurking around down in the blaviken wheat fields. I need you to be my eyes to prove it's not actually real." He scoffed and i tilted my head.
"A demon? You must be mad! But if you split the coin then I'm all for it." He nodded once , with a grunt before turning to head for the stables, behind him i followed.

Geralt and i had began our long journey to our so called Demon,
"So, do you really think it's a Demon? I ain't ever heard anybody say such nonsense. I mean, come on! It could be a giant worm for all we know!" I wailed, scoffing afterwards.
"A giant worm? Really? Come on, you can do better than that." Geralt let out a dry laugh, rolling his eyes as he slowed Roach to a walk. While also allowing me and Sombra, a chestnut stallion, catch up.
"Okay, but at least a worm's got more belief to it. But a demon? I don't think so." I nodded, crossing my arms over my chest.
Geralt took a peak to me, and then back to the road ahead.
"Anyway, we're going to find out either way. Whether it's a demon or this worm you speak of. But if we're going to be stuck together for such a long while, what do i call you."
"Oh, right yeah, The name's Y/n." I nodded once, taking a hold of the reins once again.
"Y/n, huh, sounds familiar. Any who, I'm ger-"
"Yeah yeah, i know who you are, Geralt of Rivia, the white wolf. A slayer of all monsters." Geralt looked at me fully now, smirking a little.
"So you know who i am?" He spoke, his Golden eyes almost caressing my own.
"Well duh, who doesn't know you, you're big talk in the tavern nowadays, even got songs written about you." I spat out, turning my eyes back to the road, bucking my feet a little so that Sombra trotted a little faster than Geralt.
"Hm." That's all that was let out from the man as he too picked up the pace.
Soon enough nightfall had begun to settle down and we were a good few days away from Blaviken.
"We should camp out for the night." I suggested but Geralt gave no response, and instead continued on to the riverbed, leaving me behind as he went ahead.
"Ah yes, we should camp out, good idea." I mimicked, rolling my eyes with a huff as i followed at a slower pace.
I soon caught up, only to find the witcher off of his horse and sat at a boulder. I scoffed, soon heading to a distanced tree and slowly climbing off of Sombra. Carefully, I lifted the reins over him and hooked them to a branch, gently stroking his mane with a hand as he whinnied. Sombra then calmed and that's when i unclipped my cloak, and tossed it over Sombra's saddle. Quietly i unhooked my bow and a few arrows before making my way back to Geralt, sitting a little away, my legs dangling over the slight drop that led to the deep river. I sucked in a deep breath as i enjoyed the peace.
Geralt took notice, staring my way until i had looked up to him. His eyes regaining their perch on the flowing water. I turned to my feet before smirking, standing and stretching.
"Don't look witcher~." I cooed, turning my back to him as i slipped off my leather cuffs that were pretty much glued to my wrist and dropping them neatly on the floor before unlacing my black, leather corset.
"So, you're a witcher too hm?" I nodded to his question.
"Is it that obvious?" I replied sarcastically, only to earn a hum. I continued to undress, leaving myself completely exposed.
Their was a moment of silence and then...
SPLASH!!
Geralt's attention was immediately drawn to me. I was neck deep in the flowing water, enjoying myself a little too much.
"Are you serious right now? What if we're attacked hm?" Geralt slid down from the boulder crouching on the water bed to meet my gaze.
"I'm very serious right now."
Geralt simply huffed, watching as i sunk beneath the water. Only my silver locks were seen as i swam further into the water.
The witcher took his moment, stepping back and ridding himself of his armor and undressing himself. That's when i popped up my head.
No sign of Geralt anywhere, which slightly worried me, until i felt a pair of hands wrap around my waist and pull me under.
I gasped beneath the water, turning to stare daggers through Geralt. Pushing myself to the surface i tried to regain my breath, the long haired man followed.
"I know who you are now..."
