ohai, i suck.


      She moved against him, burying her head into his fur and exhaling a broken, hollow sound that encompassed all of her hidden pain and the perceived shame of her assault. He held her close, adoring the close contact between them and savoring each moment they were together—no matter how innocent they were, as they always gave him some form of fulfillment regardless. He adored her as a mother, and he wished to adore her as a lover as well, but she didn’t love him in that manner, and he would not force it upon her. His love was too great to bring her harm, even if it meant crushing his own heart in the process—something entirely alien and unnatural to his inherit nature. He was the self-serving, self-devoted demon prince, and to harm and deprive himself for the sake of another was purely peculiar and indescribably uncharacteristic. It wasn’t bred into his DNA, nor his natural consciousness, and only true love and affection could cause the monster to do such a thing, knowing that her happiness was more valuable than his own—selfishly, in an unconscious way, for if she was in pain so inevitably would he be—as she’d brought him life and granted him love before anyone else could.

      For him to feel the same way about any other creature it would take a lifetime, but Kaena had won his undying loyalty and so he quietly embraced her, allowing her the silence she seemed to so desire. He would not probe and question until she felt that she wished to divulge the information, and so closed his eyes to her hidden misery. Her statement run true—he would protect her, no matter what, even if he was forced to forfeit his life in the process. “No, they will not,” he agreed, voice soft and barely raised above a whisper. Anyone who harmed her would face death—he would personally see to that. His hands sought her flesh, moving to caress her form in a way purely comforting as he held her close, veiling her from the world and enclosing her in his momentary protection and absolute, unwavering adoration.
