"Glad you're okay." Her voice softened in relief as he reassured her. Fingers moving slowly on his neck, she hummed a soft sound at him. "You're welcome." Catlike eyes moved to his and she smiled at him, this time with more strength from actually having rest. "I only wish I'd done something sooner."
Fear had kept her immobile. It kept her from saving him before it escalated. Fear of Sebastian consumed people and had them run like the family that lived here. "I won't let him hurt you ever again..." She said the words softly, not realizing they'd been out loud. This promise she made would not be shaken.
But then he said those words looking so guilty. Opening her eyes, she furrowed her brow then wrapped her arms about his neck gently. "I didn't let him get too far before I temporarily scrambled his brain. He's... gotten further and much crueler in the past. Which... isn't your fault."
