Feeling her consciousness respond he smiled lightly as her eyes twitched and then opened. "Welcome back little Alice." He said ready to catch her again if she stumbled he watched carefully as she moved. There was a war in her eyes and a fire that seemed to push her, what would she think of his nest when she found the well stocked kitchens and guest room he would welcome her to use until she wasn't as strong willed against his affections. He could spoil her until her time came to pass on and she would never have a want in the world. Having touched her mind he had gotten very faint hints as to the shadows of her heart but nothing made sense to  him quite yet. As she signed he moved back to his post satisfied that she was stable and signed his and looked over at her before glancing up to the council for further instruction.<br/><br/>~~~~~^^^^^~~~~~~<br/><br/><br/>One moment she had been staring at him across the way, nearly drooling on himself at some inner thought, and the next she had felt something tighten around her firmly A whisking sound surrounded her before a slight jolt as if someone had hit the pause button on a roller coaster. As the grip loosened she realized that her vampyre had wrapped around her as if he would steal her away from the nightmare they had fallen into. Whether she would like the outcome or not she wasn't so sure. His temper was burning brightly as he cursed and urged her to sign as he glared. "What will you do when I do? Are you not interested in what they're giving us? I'm leaving my friends my family, my entire life to move into new territory with a man I've never shared more than a few short traded words with all in hopes that you don't lose what little control I see in your eyes and eat me." She asked standing next to the document. "We are the last hope for peace between our people, if we fail the city falls into war and chaos. If I am sacrificing everything to be with you, what are you willing to sacrifice for me?" She asked pen in hand cross his arms all he like, she signed the document hoping he understood what this all meant for her.
