A heavy dose of atmosphere

His sunset kissed stare would rip away from her orchid gaze when she spoke, a wave of anger and defeat coursing through his veins. Her words chilled him to the core, his brow furrowing as he stared aimlessly into the moor, keeping his eyes anywhere but on her. Despite her comforting words he would huff a heavy sigh, his legs unfolding beneath him as he rose to all fours, and to his full height. His head would hang unusually low, his ears falling lower than his shoulders as his eyes clenched shut. It would take him a moment to regain himself, but he would not turn toward his mistress when he spoke. Instead he would keep his back to her, his lips curled slightly and his lids slipping open as his sight fell upon an insignificant tree. "I get it Twig, you're hurt, and I'm sorry- but what about me? How helpless do you think I feel? How frigid do you think I freeze every time I see a tear drip from those beautiful eyes?" A growl would bubble within his chest, rage welling up within him fueled by his hatred toward her attacker, and his failure to prevent what had happened to her. "I know your broken Twig, and Im sorry. His head would sharply turn as he tossed it back toward her, his somber gaze welling with tears as he expressed his own feelings to her, not holding anything back as he had before. "I'm sorry I hadn't come in time, I'm sorry I couldn't hunt him down, I'm sorry that I promised you I'd protect you, and failed you...." A single tear would shed, rolling down his cheek until it had intermingled with the plush fur around his throat. "You deserve better Ashley. You deserve someone like Jinxx, or Pulsus, who can actually protect the ones they love." So unknowingly he had confessed his true feelings toward her, but at this moment he was far too enveloped in sadness to see it. He would sigh again, his gaze leaving hers as he fell back onto his haunches, his back still facing her as he stared aimlessly at the ground. |
