just let go

Killian let his head fall softly on the snow covered ground as he heard and considered her reply. Her shrug and her voice were an attempt to make the statement seem casual, but he could tell by the way she looked immediately to her feet that her past got to her more than she was willing to let on. They already had more in common that he had guessed originally. He shook his head, his eyes closing gently. I'm sorry to hear that. I know life alone can be... difficult. His lids opened again, and he focused his ruby gaze on hers. I know how tough it really is to have family turn its back on you.



Of course he did. He knew it all too well. And it was only fair now to share that with her. My family was really close, especially my older sister and I. But my sister... she was mistreated by the son of our pack's leaders. I paid him back, a smirk flashed briefly at this, but no one was too happy about that. When they exiled me, even my sister looked at me with shame in her eyes and walked away. Nothing had been harder than that. His smirk changed to a grimace before he turned his head away from the female. He wouldn't share anymore. She didn't need to know how angry he was, how hell-bent on revenge. That would wait for another day, if one ever came.
