Gethin could only watch as Mercy began to speak. He had to grin a little at her comment about not being able to walk after, but other than that he just listened in quiet amazement. When she began to describe all the things he had done he honestly couldn't believe she was still talking about him. He knew it had done all of these things, but he had never heard them described from someone else's point of view. He was gentle and kind when he needed to get others to trust him so that they would stay with him longer, but he hadn't felt that way acting this way with Mercy. He had done it all without much thought. Like it was natural to care for her and try to make her feel better. A slight smirk touched his lips at her last description of how he made her feel. Excited and afraid. She was more right than she knew when she spoke of his walls and closed off heart. He was quiet for a moment, his smirk fading. He didn't want to be so serious when she had been chuckling and grinning as she spoke, but he just felt like he had to get her to realize just what kind of wolf he was. "I've never treated someone like I've treated you... Not honestly anyway." He sighed as he pulled his words together. "It's like a game. To convince women that I'll keep them safe and show them a good time if they stay and let me do what I want. I learned to do that when I was young because if my father told me to go fuck a certain woman and I didn't he'd drag them back to the cave we lived in by their scruff and made me rape them. And if I refused he'd do it himself and then tear into me as punishment." His ears flattened against his skull, the toes of his forepaws curling and digging his claws into the dirt. He had never talked about this before to anyone and he wasn't entirely sure why he was talking about it now. "So when I say you're not as fucked up as you think you are, I'm being completely serious." He gave a little shake of his head and looked down at the ground between them. "If there's anything left under this exterior I certainly don't know where it is... I don't know if I've ever seen it." |
