My ears cocked onto him entirely, ignoring the russel of the wind through the branches, or the screech as they gnashed together. At the first mention of his daughter my mind wandered onto thoughts of her. Her body, her voice, her mind, her attitude. I somehow managed to come back to earth just as he spoke again. I always knew that Zarian loved all of his children and all of his herd, so him saying how much he loved Eden didn't surprise me, it was the time he picked to say it that did.
Eden's..undescribable, at least to me. She's just special in her own way, and I wouldn't want her to change. Ever. I stumbled over my words as heat crep along my withers again. This was her Father afterall, and he probably didn't want to hear how I felt about his daughter, but then again, he did ask, so he obviously wanted to know. I shifted my weight to one side heavily, exhaling slowly through my nose, but then I suddely couldn't breath. Releasing.. I choked on the word. The questioning overtone that was supposed to be heard wasn't in my voice. It didn't take me long to piece together why. He wanted me with Eden, or atleast he knew that I wouldn't give up on her. That I'd always be within distance too her, even if she didn't want me there. If something happened to her, it'd be like shoving a white hot brand down my throat. The pain would always be there. Am I aloud to stay near Eden and the herd..? I questioned in a murmur, my clear, sightless eyes off of Zarian and on the ground somewhere near his feet.
