(He knew something was wrong as soon as he crossed her head and saw taht she had not opened her eyes. Ordinarily she would at least glare at him, if not stare with a sort of dull lack of emotion.. but this, it was kinda scary to him. He nudged her lightly, warmth ebbing from his skin as his fire radiated through him. Whenever he was upset he tended to heat up from the inside out, until he could literally create his own steam. As it was, he nosed under her jaw and lifted her head just a little, feeling her pulse there and how labored it was.) Bree, lass.. (He murmured, feeling a bit at a loss as to what to think or do.. all he could do was feel the terror welling in him. She was having trouble breathing, her entire body was tense with pain and he could do nothing about it. He was pretty certain if he called on Durgan again his brother would call him a nervous ninny and tell him to go lay down somewhere and wait it out. Within the space of a second, he had crossed behind her, and nosed his way beneath her hip, pushing her up a bit and sinking his own body into the space he made, so that she was curled into his side and supported more. Not knowing what else to do for her, he laid his head beside hers and rumbled softly in dragonspeak. He had never in his life been so terrified as he was in that moment.. not even when his life had been threatened during his kidnapping.. not when he had been forced within Tiernan's body.. not even when Durgan had gone to America.. this moment was something akin to mortal terror for him.) I dinna ken what to do for ye lass.. Och, but I wish I could take the pain.. (He crooned the words, rocking her a little as the end of his tail stroked over hers lightly. Something sort of clicked inside his mind in that moment, as he held her, the knowledge that he would die to take this pain from her, and what that meant.. and he felt a hollow sort of awareness come to life within his being, a hollowness that started to fill itself with his mate's thoughts and emotions.. and just as suddenly as they sprang into his mind they were boxed back up in the protective barrier she had put up. He lifted his head, looking down at her, realizing after a moment that the true bond had just become completed, full circle. Not only were they soul mates, but now they were heart mates as well. Fate had given her to him, but now he willingly chose her, submitted to her and gave his being to her.. and even that terrified him less than the thought of losing her.)
