Gotta raise a little hell

Boy was he right to assume she was furious. But, just like everything with Mercy it seemed, the level he assumed things were at was only a conservative estimate to where they really were. Her anger felt like a sickness that rolled off of her and seeped into him as she spoke. Gethin never raised his voice and he very rarely ever got truly angry. Before Mercy he very rarely felt emotion for that matter. Everything got covered up by sex and the chase for it. That was something they had in common. But as she spoke, blaming him for not coming after her, for not making her feel like she cared to him, frustration bloomed in the pit of his stomach and that frustration boiled into anger. He watched her back away from him, and his jaw tensed to keep it shut and keep him from reaching out for her. He let the last of her words fall to his ears, but it wasn't until she turned to walk away that his tense muscles finally sprung to life. He lunged forward, running ahead of her and blocking her path as a furious growl rattled his chest. His eyes bore into hers as his gaze found her face again, his hackles prickling. "Do you want me to drag you back to my den by your neck? Do you want me to trap you there till you actually believe that you'll never leave again?" he demanded, his voice catching and taking on a seething anger that he had never thought would be there, at least not around Mercy. "Because I can. I've done it. More than once. I don't like doing it, but if that is what you want from me then damn it I can." He gave a sharp shake of his head at the thought. "That's how I would treat some 'broad' that I wanted that tried to leave me. But you... You walked away from me and I let you." He paused for a moment, breathing hard against the stress of his own emotions and desires. "I don't know how to live in between. I don't know how be between nothing and everything. I've never had a... relationship, if you want to call it that. Hell, I've never had a friend. I wasn't singing some fucking sad song, I was fucking furious at myself for caring so damn much that I wanted to let you figure out your shit without having me in your way!" |
