Blinking, Kai looked down at him, shi words causing her to blush deeply. She hadn't realized she'd let her thoughts flow free into the bond. They weren't anything to be ashamed of; Kai wanted to build a life with this man more than anything and sooner rather than later. She wanted to make a home with him, talk about...the possibility of having a family. She'd always wanted kids, but she was leaving the when up to Warren. The last thing she wanted was to force kids on him if he wasn't ready to be a father...again. But that was besides the point.<br/><br/>His explanation on the fighting made her look away. She'd always known it in the back of her mind that he would never stop, but somehow she'd hoped. It was understandable though. He'd fought his way through this world all on his own, without anyone's help, without anyone there to protect him, to help him. She didn't know if she could ask him to stop; would it be selfish of her to ask that?<br/><br/>With a heavy sigh, she looked up at him, a bitter smile touching her lips.<br/><br/>"I get it, I do. I'd like you to stop...so I can try to show you what a normal life is like. But I can't bring myself to ask you to do so." She let out another sigh. "But...if you can promise...or try to, that we won't run anymore, that at least...three days a week we can be normal, maybe four, I'll make sure you never have to take on another fight alone. I won't let you."
