He wasn't one to usually think of the worse possible scenarios. Aki was a man who preferred to take each day as it came, without much planning or consideration. This, though, was something entirely new. What if Renhett disappeared? The thought of keeping constant watch of her wasn't pleasant, but seeing her slip away with his children wasn't that wonderful of a thought either. It seemed to be a risk he was willing to take. He'd murmur softly again as he thought it over, considering all the possibilities he could think of. "Others can never truly be trusted, not fully," he admitted simply. Renhett was little more than an acquaintance to him, but he got a good instinctual feeling about her, and that went a long ways with him. "But I have a feeling you are more honest than not, Renhett."

Perhaps more honest than he might always be, even. He studied her for a moment. She was giving him a fair amount of trust, too. He'd expressed wanting the main responsibility of raising any children that she'd have - what if he disappeared, instead, and left her with them? Both of them had to give an uncomfortable amount of trust for this to work. Despite that, he felt exhilarated suddenly in his decision. Her seductive glance only solidified his choice, and he grinned as he made his way toward her. Though he'd come to this decision suddenly, it felt more right than anything had in awhile, and he was careful as he swung himself onto her, with ease - he was no stranger to this either, though their goal was something definitely unique to him.
