Eye of the Storm

Arcus could almost smile as she worried over him, fretted and tried to come up with solutions. But it was...inevitable, he understood that now. Right? This was his destiny, he had just been making noise before, thundering across the heavens with his anger and rage, but now he'd feel it all, and what a show he could be. But here, as he leaned his forehead against hers, breathed in her scent and felt the overpowering sense of wonder at her light and purity, a large part of him didn't want that. If that meant he had to be weak, if that meant he had to be tied down so he wouldn't become his storm...it might just be worth it.

Oh how conflicted could he possible be!

What happened when warm air met a cold front again? Some storm, hurricane maybe. Or a tornado, yes, that's what he felt now. The winds whipping through his being, tearing apart everything he knew. With a sigh he'd close his eyes to her, not saying a word untill suddenly they were in mixed company. Slate blue eyes would snap open as she ripped from him, and for a moment he felt a powerful need to cry before he swallowed it at this man's strong words. Ah, the alpha. He blinked before slate blue eyes narrowed as Bass turned his eyes to shaye, his words tearing through her, he could see it. She was innocent! With narrowed eyes he quickly moved, stepping between Shaye and Bass with his head high, but not dominant. "Shaye had nothing to do with me being here." Not directly. "So don't get upset with her, Sir." He paused then, his jaws parting as he tried to figure out how to deal with it. The only pack he had ever known was Donostrea, and they generally invited guests to tea rather than demanded to know why they were there. "My name is Arcus Elementas, and I just...I had to see Shaye. I'm sorry, it is all my fault entirely for crossing your border." He wanted to take the blame off her, even if it meant this man would tear into him. Shaye didn't deserve to have her life muddied by him, it wasn't very fair of Arcus to do that to her.
