She felt so foolish speaking of her silly pains and worries when just last week he wasn't even certain where his next meal was coming from or if he was going to be able find a dry place to rest. She brought up her sky blue eyes to meet the lone green eye of the male as she smiled weakly at the encouragement that he offered. She wasn't for certain if the words were genuine or if it was just for her comfort but it really didn't matter, she knew letting the worries and fear fall from her mind and shoulders if only for seconds was better than bottling it all in.
She turned her eyes towards the orchard as she sighed. She was repeating herself again but she ddin't care, if he wanted to listen to her bable he'd have to deal with it. "He.. didn't wish to come home to the family that loved him and wanted him here." she turned her gaze back to the male and laughed sadly as she asked him honestly. "How are you suppose to take that? You dedicate your life to the one you love, even when gone you keep that part of your life bare.. and yet.. your love just sends you a letter... instead of coming home." She shook her head and laughed. "And yet.. I just sit here in our lands worrying about the cattle.. now how silly can that be."
There were a million other thoughts that she'd been worrying about but the one that had prickled and stuck was the choice of her mate.. and the choice she'd made out of spite after receiving that letter. She'd known better than to accept the offer of the boy from Inferni, she hadn't even really liked him.. but the woman had been scorned and a spiteful part of her had decided that her mate should pay for the pain held left her with in his written words. She'd never thought that she'd be paying for her choice that night.. but she didn't really care about /that/.
