He couldn't look at her as she uttered those words that made his spirit sink, he kept hold of her hand but denied her seeing the color of his eyes and the distress in them as he looked away from her broken form. It was exactly what he didn't want to happen, he didn't want her to get attached to him, not like that because he knew that they could never be as one like that and it cut him painfully that it was going to hurt her when she finally realised this. So he looked away and instead focused on what he was going to do to the one who had done this to her, it made his fur bristle just thinking about it.
He murmured to himself in his native tongue, all manners of words that were not fit for saying in the company of females, broken occasionally by small growls. His ears swiveled as Ralla gave them their orders and the disappeared into the surrounding foliage. The man sighed and got to his knees, once again picking up the injured female into his arms. Then he transitioned to his feet, swaying once to keep his balance and trying to jostle Shiloh as little as possible. His lips were tightly pressed together and his mind had wandered off to far away thoughts and suddenly he wanted to be with his daughter and know she was safe.
He motioned with his head towards the inner of AniWaya's territory to tell Mizu that they should head off. Speaking wasn't something he trusted himself with at this moment in time. While he waited for the healer he rolled his shoulders and listened to them crack. Still he did not look at Shiloh not wanting to see the emotion in her eyes and remembered their last encounter where they had both broken down.
