The way Allegro expressed his feelings for her was enough to put tears in her eyes but she felt strong enough to not let them fall. She looked up at him with almost the same longing he had as he spoke. He was over willing to make her happy or make them stay as a family. It seemed like even though he had a lot of his own dreams and goals, he was still not wanting to pressure her into doing something she didn't want to. Her gaze dropped away from him, not wanting to disappoint him but there was little she felt she had to hide from him especially coming from her true feelings. Still, he was more than what she could ask for as a mate and as a father. And it would devastate her just as much to reject his offer. But still, he had her considering it because she couldn't deny that she would want to stay here with her children and with him. But when he offered for them to live out as loners on the land, she would have an immediate answer in turn for him. Her gaze returning to him with a bit of worry to the thought, "No, I don't want that for our children." She thought of where being a loner had led her and Nuada. And where she knew Allegro would do anything to protect her and their children, there was still that itch in the back of her mind telling her that it wouldn't be enough. She couldn't care for them or protect them on just her own, and all of that emotional baggage would be pulled on Allegro. "I want them to grow up safe in Abaven, and safe with you." Still she went silent for a moment, still not wanting him to resent her or feel sad for her denying the offer. "I'm not going to tell you I'm not willing to live here in Abaven. I just need more time to consider what that means for me and The Hallows." Resin would surely allow her to go live in Abaven with her new family, she just knew moving to The Hallows was not an option. She felt a tension in her to get it out, if only because she placed all her trust in him by now. "My other children are dead, Allegro. And it's my fault." Her lack of emotion could have been alarming, but maybe the amount of happiness she had felt of the course of her time in Abaven with her new family had subsided those feelings. Not that it wasn't still an unbearable pain she felt. |
