He bared his teeth in a silent growl at the slave, and likely would have said more, is Bee hadn’t suddenly spoken up. He flushed, an unusual event for the titan, and stood rigardly to attention, easily, and instantly giving her enough room to walk past as she stalked past to survey them both. His face was a mixture of anger and embarrassment, as he realised what he had said in front of the Empress.
It was all that stupid slaves fault, if she didn’t try and sass and snap at everything to so much as twitched in her way, then they wouldn’t even be in this mess in the first place! It was her personality that had driven him to find someone else to take the blows.
“Anything could cause her harm, and it’s my vigilance that keeps her safe!” he snapped. What a foolish thing for her to suggest, that he couldn’t protect the wolf he loves.
“I wouldn’t have to frighten you if you weren't such an impertinent fool” he growled, showing the first hint of teeth. shit he didn’t again, his mouth was getting the best of him. Why did she just make him so damn mad he didn’t think anyone else in the world had gotten under her skin like Zee. he flattened himself to the floor beneath him, bowing his head to Deathbelle. “My deepest apologies, Deathbelle, I will never bring tension before you again.” he promised, the fact that his breathing was still a little rough likely ruined his speech.
