His concern was so great for her that she would have believed any word he said, even if he said he was the Devil's spawn out to get her. Infatuation was a dangerous game. His wings wrapped around her, the sunshine shining in a direct spotlight onto them, warming her skin.  Much to the imagination of mortals, vampires were able to go out in the day. Their powers were significantly weaker, but they would not fry. Only a beheading or stake through the heart would kill a vampire, and she had been very lucky to not have to deal with that. She relaxed against him, a wave of happiness and pleasure washing over her gently, his words only deepening the emotions. "I understand. It is unfortunate that I cannot cry at this moment, for I have spent the past two centuries crying and it has gotten me no where. I will have time to cry after he is gone, Mike. I trust you to help me through this."
