(He wasn't all that sure what he had wanted from her when he had started this little conversation.. but nothing was easing the ache and she obviously wasn't feeling or thinking the same as he was at that moment. Perhaps these things had to be discussed at proper moments. That was why he didn't mess around with relationships.. he was his father's son after all, bound to be in a mated relationship with a female who would grow to resent him in time.. and that thought, surprisingly, made him ache so much more deeply than before. As she nuzzled his cheek, murmuring to him, he closed his eyes, leaning into her slightly, praying that this female, this beautiful and perfect and loving female, could someday come to love him as well. He knew he didn't deserve it, he was a pretty shallow asshole a lot of the time, and she wasn't a female used to animalistic males around her.. and he was about as animalistic as they came, all red lairds were. Sighing, he made a little noise in his throat and as she lowered her head to his neck he did the same to her, so that they were twined together.) Aye, I spose. (He murmured, the words coming out somewhat deflated and more than a little depressed sounding. She had not understood what he had been stumbling over, had all but been asking for a rescue from, but that was okay he supposed. He would get over it.. it wasn't as though he had confessed that he loved her and she had rejected him. She was his mate, she was cuddled up to him and their bairns were moving quietly between them. He felt like he was at home.. right there in that nest, but something didn't feel right all of a sudden. There was an elephant in the room and he was trying to point it out, but she didn't see it. He remained quiet then, just a little tense, as he stared into the fire that remained in the pit. Durgan hadn't had this kind of problem.. hell, he and Evie had returned to the keep blushing all sorts of romantic babble and she couldn't even talk! Damn his father for sheltering him so much.. he had never learned how to express these feelings, because they had never been expressed to him.)
