Angeal was content to ignore Liste's doubt. She didn't realize the truth, but she would, in time. Or she wouldn't. Perhaps he was wrong and it was her who was right, but that Angeal doubted. After all, he knew himself better than anyone else ever would. Angeal knew every thought that had flickered through his own mind, every time he had been ready to kill another wolf. He knew everything that made him a monster intimately, inside and out. Some day, he would show her unequivocally, and she would leave. But until then, Angeal would damn well make the best of every moment. So when she pressed her body against his, Angeal didn't pull away. Instead he twisted his head to nuzzle her neck, breathing in her comforting scent for a long moment. "Good," The male snorted softly, "Because I need you." It was more than that. It was far more complex than the word 'need' implied. You needed air to breathe. That much was simple, straightforward even. But it was harder to explain what Liste was to him. She was an intrinsic part of him, one that he couldn't function without. How did you explain that to a wolf that surely didn't feel the same way? Speech |
