Elwood agreed quietly, as Fin had expected he would because that was who he was. There seemed to be nothing she could ask of him that he would not give. Nothing he would not give to all of those that he loved. Her mate would give his whole self, his happiness, his very life if it meant he could make his family happy, keep them safe. Save them.

"I am giving you these kids," Fin said firmly, despite the tremor in her voice that spoke of her emotion, "They are coming into this world and they are going to be strong enough to make it." Though she said it with confidence, there was doubt and fear in her heart that she was still stubborn and willful enough to deny. 

But that was where it ended.

"But if I.. If I can't.. stay too..." Fin stopped as her throat tightened, unable to say the words out of simple fear of the idea, "You'll take care of them. And Eljay. And. And it'll be okay." Fin had never been well spoken in even the best of times, and in spite of her desire to say so much more - to be more reassuring, to explain exactly why it would be okay and make him actually believe it - she fell quiet but for the soft sounds of her emotion.
