"ah, well" Hemlock chuckled "they say suffering builds character." whatever the pack or its members endured so far was beyond the taste she had given him. the man was quite sure it'd continue to endure though. unless someone challenged Deathbelle for her crown or she passed it along to an heir... however packs are run in this land. he wasn't sure if each community had their own thing, or it was a universal understanding. perhaps he'd ask someone later. for now, he should focus entirely on his 'date'. her question didn't make him pause or stumble as some men would have. he calmly turned to her, raising a brow before a shake of the head. "no" that is to say he'd not fall in love eventually, but as of right now he had no formal plans to do so. "I had traveled too long, went to different lands briefly... no women would want a vagabond" because women liked to settle typically, build lives with their chosen mate and have children. Hemlock felt restless. "I suppose you could say I haven't met the right woman yet." he added. it was his turn to ask a question now, but judging by her bold one he guessed she had a lot more on her mind about the manner. Hemlock recalled her controlled sobs and her whirlwind of emotions. it hit him suddenly that she may have lost someone she loved. "have you? been in love?" he dared ask, though his tone was less bold and softer. his eyes focused entirely on her delicate face, noticing how weary she seemed despite a strong front. he both respected her and felt sorry for her. |
