Kenta noticed the sadness that Milo was trying to conceal, and he patted his mate’s arm gently. “You don’t have to face her if you aren’t sure that you can do it.”

Milo shook his head. “I know, but I have to. Besides, who knows what other traps she has set up out there? I can’t let you go out there and face her on your own.
