Warren struggled to wake. But he and his cat were stuck in the darkness of their mind. He wanted to see Kai to make sure she was safe. But his cat was ignoring that. His cat knew shed be fine.... But he was feeling depressed... A new feeling for him. She hadn't claimed him...... And it hurt more each time he thought on it.<br/><br/>-She hasn't claimed us..... She doesn't care... And she is safe.... I know that she is.- his normally powerful voice was subdued. He was just too depressed to care. His human knew nothing about mating.... So it wasn't a surprise when he was angry at him.<br/><br/>-Of course she wants us! She's our mate! Why wouldnt she want us?- his human yelled in confusion and anger at his cat.<br/><br/>His cat sighed...<br/>-She hasn't claimed us Warren..... Not the way of our kind...... She is our Queen.... She must fight and claim us as her king.... Its the way of felines...... But she hasn't...... And no matter what we do she hasn't noticed us as worthy....- his cats voice was sad and tired and Warren knew he was right..... But why? Why didn't she want them? He was frustrated and racked his brain for the answer. He was practically crying.<br/><br/>-Why doesnt she want us?- he said faintly to no one in particular.<br/><br/>Karen noticed the tears on Warrens face and stood to check him before a wave of uncontrolled emotions hit her through the open bond. Tears came to her eyes as she held his hand tight. She wasn't sure if he was aware or not.<br/><br/>"She loves you Warren.... Don't doubt that.... Don't forget......" She said without looking away from the tears running down his face.
