It took everything in him not to react to all of the venom being lobbed at Eularia. He had hoped she had been right - that this would have all been different. But he hadn't really expected that it would. Still, though, he mentally recoiled from the comment about her former mother-in-law. He'd heard enough over the years to understand how hurtful it was.
He could feel the exhaustion and pain radiating from Lara, and the hand that had been resting idly at his side moved so it was gently resting against her back, offering silent support and love to help buoy her against the onslaught.
Enzino's revelation surprised him, but he still maintained control. Two. Two babies. If not for the current situation, his heart would have lept for joy. But this was not the moment for joy, not when Lara was being wounded so cruelly.
His eyes met Enzinos and spoke a plea even without the aid of telepathy. Eularia was the strongest person he knew, but even she had limits. This needed to end.
