There were very few instances when he had exposed his vulnerable side. He cried when he first found out that she was his mate, but he couldn't claim her because of the curse of the Centaur king.
He cried when he gave her a choice. A choice of either choosing her freedom and a chance at a normal life or choosing him and facing the adventure she had never asked for. He thought she would give up on him. An angel like her didn't deserve a reckless beast like him!
He cried when he found her with Darius. He thought he had lost her too. But smelling Darius's scent on her was the worse thing that had ever happened to him.
And now he was crying again when he hurt her, discarded her love, humiliated her for another woman.
It had always been her!
She was the only one who could bring out that vulnerable side of his. And she was the only one who could hold his pieces in place.
