Duck Lake trust me when i tell you, you don't want that tooth 'n claw

The feeling only lasts a moment, until he reminds himself that this means little. It doesn't really mean Kratos loves him back, it's only —
Or, maybe it does. His breath catches again as Kratos speaks, thoughts tumbling to a halt. He feels stupid for doubting it, then — as stupid as he'd felt a moment ago for thinking his mate's pursuit meant something. Briefly, it occurs to him that he should stop making so many assumptions; it's exhausting. But the thought fades quickly as he presses closer to Kratos, forgetting everything else again. He doesn't know when he'd started loving him, or if it even qualifies as real love (his own version has always felt twisted, broken somehow) — but he knows it's the only solid thing in his world right now, and he'll hold on to it for as long as he can.
