He listened quietly, wondering again if it was possible for him to help Aditya. Even after so much time, Alarian distinctly remembered how he had coped with his own betrayals; many long nights with countless strangers, anyone who wanted him. Sometimes, he had been the convenient one, too. He didn't like that idea for the golden wolf, for some reason. Aditya did deserve better.

His gaze broke from Aditya nonetheless, trailing along the ground as he continued a little more quietly. I mean— you're just... you deserve to be appreciated— um, but not in the weird way that probably sounded like. Hahaha what am I doing? I'm sorry your mate couldn't see that; I know how it hurts. Maybe that would fix it, ugh.
