Corbin's gaze grew cloudy his body slightly stiffened his touch easing away releasing her from his touch he all but had a hand on her cheek as he stood above her. His gaze serious<span style="font-style: italic">"She's pushing me away after all I went through"</span>his thoughts whispered. The blood in him screamed traitor but his heart whispered softer things<span style="font-style: italic">"Time"</span>. Time it had whispered something he had plenty of but not something he thought she really had but this was her choice and so he would just have to wait to see how she play's her pieces. As his mind continue to swarm only his eyes portray his thoughts. His thumb caresses her cheek before it releases her finally. Corbin steps away gently giving her space, "You can have your time but know that if you ake to much someone else will make the choice for you" he says taking his leave of her not wishing to hear her response nor her reaction.<br/><br/>As soon as Corbin's feet left the room the sound of small feet hit the floor. Quickly he kneeled before Rayne "Please excuse my lateness Princess" he said gently eagerness in his tone. He peeked up gently to look up at her he blushed lightly,<span style="font-style: italic">"Master sure know's how to pick em' "</span>he thought to himself. "I've been instructed to escort you home if you do not mind" He said his head peeking up ever so often trying to read Rayne's expression.<br/><br/>Corbin sat else where in the house his sour mood filling the air the light flap of wings revealed the presence of Corbin's protector's the head of the eight. Corbin made no effort to acknowledge his friend, "I see things did not go as planned" Ace said his white hair falling gently along his face. Corbin only responded in silence. "So what seems to be the problem Master?" his voice in general concern. Corbin's lip's tightened, "Well Ace it seems Rayne does not recall me only in pieces, someone else has come  in contact with her" his voice betraying his need to hide his anger. Ace nodded "Only a few clans know of the Peaches whereabouts so it could be any of a number". "Or just one" COrbin said his eyes narrowing.
