"Do you what could have happened if I wasn't there to stop those men?! Do you?! They almost killed you Kin! Do you know what that would have done to me?! You can't be by yourself!" Ares says, but the veins popping out of his neck is telling me he more than likely yelled it. I sink lower into the bed, fully aware of what he said. 'I was just going for a walk' I sign to him, "I know, but I told you not to leave the grounds without someone with you. You can't protect yourself out there." he sighs. I pull my knees up to my chest and wrap my arms around my legs. Sometimes I wish I could hear him when he speaks. Maybe I would listen better when he tells me to do something. Ares walks over to the bed and sits in front of me. His silver eyes look at me with sorrow and regret. "I know you didn't hear me yell, but I'm sorry for yelling at you. I just get so worried about you, Kin" I read his lips and he raises his hand to wipe a stray tear. I was almost killed tonight because I was being stupid. I have a mate who loves me for who I am but I take it for granted. 'I'm sorry' I sign and let the tears fall freely. Ares wraps his arms around me and pulls me onto his lap. I feel vibrations coming from his chest, he's humming. He does this for me when I cry because he knows my mother used to do it to me as well. he taps my legs, making me look up at him. 'I love you' he signs, I smile. 'I love you too'.
