Take Me To Him

All the council members left the council hall, feeling helpless about the situation.

Draven returned to Ember after taking care of matters following the council meeting. As usual, Ember was sitting quietly in her chamber, lost and hurt.

He sat next to her and waited before speaking. "What happened today is not your fault. It's what he chose for himself. All you have to do is accept his decision."

Ember remained silent for a while, then finally spoke, "Does he hate me so much for being human that he would rather choose to die than accept me as his mate? Did he never consider me his friend? Have I been imposing on him all the time and following him around while he despised me for being born human? Even if I have powers, he sees me as the kind he has been hating for so long."

Draven knew Morpheus had not held back from hurting her and now he could feel the extent of hurt his words has brought to Ember. Anyone in her place would feel the same.
