So much more than I can carry

Forsaken. That name would be burned into her memories for as long as she lived. She had no doubt that Ganta meant what he said when he promised to make Forsaken pay for what he did, but it worried her a bit too. She trusted Ganta's abilities to protect himself, and her, but she didn't want him to get hurt on her behalf. She knew there was no talking him out of it though. She simply nodded and hoped that if Ganta ever went after Forsaken that he would be careful and come home in one piece. Although, wasn't that the hope she had always no matter who the opponent was?

She was a tad startled when her mate hopped to his paws and started checking every inch of her till he was satisfied that her only wound was the gash across her face. Abbey even fluttered up and came to rest on Roza's side to see what was going on. It made her smile slightly at the silly, over protective gesture. Even though she had been positive that Ganta would be happy at the news, it still made her relieved to see the grin on his face and the joy in his eyes. Her tail thumped lightly against the ground. They were going to be parents! She hadn't imagined that this would happen so soon in their lives, but she was happy. She glanced toward her stomach where their future children were supposedly growing and for a moment she didn't care that she was still a bloody mess with an open wound across the left side of her face. They were going to be a family.

She didn't look back up to Ganta again until she heard him mention going to Fiori. Her ears flicked back and she gave a little shake of her head. She knew Ganta had good intentions and it was certainly the easiest and closest place to go, but... "I don't want my dad to see me like this." More importantly, she didn't want her father to see her bloody and worn down standing next to Ganta who had promised to protect her. She would rather explain how she had gotten a scar after the fact when she had the energy to talk him down. She wanted to announce that she was pregnant to her family on happier terms. Not like this. "Some of my extended family has packs in the west... Maybe we can go there? I've never personally met them, but I'm sure they'd help." Truth be told she didn't really want to walk that far, but it was the best alternative she could think of.
