silent whispers silent tears

Ashtoreth was positively stunning and beautiful and everything that Leon wanted in a girl. She was down to earth and refined, she fit the perfect wife card to a 'T', bt was that what he wanted from her? to make her his own? Yes, it was, more than anything, and Leon wouldn't admit it directly, both out of slight fear of rejection, and also out of the worry that he wouldn't be enough for her. He wanted her to have everything perfect in life, to never miss anything, if he was busy tying her down she would never have anything and chances were her life would end up being something she regretted, never would he do that to the woman he loved so, she needed a king, or a prince, or anyone that wasn't him. Someone capable of handing her the world on a silver platter.

Clearing his throat with audible ease the man would listen to every word that hung from her lips, that allowed him to understand her and hear what all had happened with her in the past few months. please tell me you fell in love so I don't have to break you. it was the solemn thought coursing through his mind, running rampant, he was such a selfish man to ask something so bold, to want something else entirely. Why can't you just know what I'm thinking? Even in his inner turmoil he was locked, stuck in a constant means of neutrality so that she could never know.

"Lead hunter? that's amazing Ash, I'm so proud of you, congratulations," he was happy that she had been able to find herself a spot in society, that Valhalla was offering her enough happiness to want to live and stay and breath and run and just exist in absolute perfection. A lead hunter, how fitting for her, how perfect. How marvelous! He was honestly elated for the woman, and the thoughts would not simply die down no matter the constant repetition. Happiness suited her well.

though, some other information would come and Leon would visibly freeze. In her time of happiness she had also experienced pain, "Did he...hurt you?" Honestly, the man didn't have the courage to ask her if the boy had raped her, and God forbid he had because then Leon would have to leave again, because he would be on a man hunt, and it would be one that could never stop. He would not let anyone get away with hurting her. Thoughts were stopped quickly as she brought up an entirely different subject. Letting the thoughts of the attacker go away a smile planted itself on his muzzle and offered a wry grin, "And if I don't want a new one?" the words were spoken without much direct thinking, hopefully, they hadn't been to glossed with his true meaning, however.
