<3 I waited up just because I hoped I would get a reply if I remained patient ^_^<3 700+

She was working to keep her fingers from fiddling needlessly with the golden ornament that she regarded so highly. Alone it was astounding, but it being a gift from Silas made it so much more precious to the cream and copper woman. She was very aware of her pacing pulse, but while she knew she could not remain entirely calm around this male, she rather admired the contentment his presence allowed her to feel. She felt privileged that he cared to waste his time with her. He was way too good for her, but this was something she had known for a long time and she had decided to try to move beyond such thought and try to relax instead. She believed he would be honest with her if there ever was something up, and a few months back he shown her that he deserved to be trusted. He hadn’t turned his back on her.

She was sort of relieved when he said that he had not heard of the book. Truth be told, it was a random choice one day when she had reached blindly for a random piece of literature in the book shelf. She was not even certain if she liked it, but figured that she should show enough resolve to be able to finish what she started. He shrugged and her smile brightened slightly in automatic response as she put the weary book down on the table before them. Definitely no more reading today, and she was not disappointed facing that fact. The book was not mentioned again, and that was all fine by her, for she doubted she could have described the plot for him anyway.

Slim eyebrows wrinkled in modest concern at the male’s reply to her question. What could okay mean? Her smile stumbled slightly and turned uncertain, but the male decided to elaborate on his own. Ears swivelled back, leaning against her dark locks as he told her that his father and sister had left the lands and travelled back to his homelands. Ruby gaze dropped to the little space between their two bodies as she realized that she didn’t really know much about this male at all. Had she known that he had much family around here? And what could that mean, would Silas eventually follow them?

Maroon gaze rose again as he said that he was alone now. A slight pinch of hurt disturbed her blissful state. Of course he was not alone.. She said nothing though, for she understood what he meant. But it did not lessen her own disappointment. However, this was not about her, and she swallowed her silly pride. She wanted to comfort him as he had comforted her, but she did not quite know how to do that. She leaned slightly towards him with her head tilted with that light layer of concern on her slender face. She wanted to correct him and tell him that he was not alone, but her voice remained caught in her throat. At least her hand finally moved to lightly touch the back of his shoulder. She meant the gesture to be supporting and comforting, but the move was born from greed as well. She wanted to touch him.

”I’m so sorry, Silas,” she breathed, realizing that she meant what she said. Of course the Lykoi woman wanted the Agata male to be happy. She did not like the fear of him leaving. He was the only Russian that had joined Inferni; didn’t that mean that this was his home? Her mind worked tirelessly to control the paranoid train of thought that wanted to bloom. She wouldn’t allow it. You’re not alone, Silas. ”Were you close?” she wondered, wishing to hear that he could be happy here. She knew this place would not be the same without him, and did not dare to think about what would happen if he too left.

She looked back into the pale ice and she couldn’t look away despite the fragile subject brought up. It was so kind of him to ask. ”He is fine—he lives with his grandmother.” Kaena took good care of the boy, and she sincerely believed it was best for both mother and son. She visited the boy very often. She did not wish to be a mother, but she did love her one and only child. It was kind of him to ask. ”Thank you for asking,” the woman quietly added, though her thoughts circulated more around the Russian right now.
