“You don’t think I don’t see the fear in your eyes? I could see it when I fed from you, I could see it during sex, and I can see it now.” She said softly, looking down at her hands. “Anytime my mouth gets too close, you look like you’re about ready to crawl out of your skin.. it hurts and I can’t stand it. I want to fix it but I can’t. I don’t know how. Please, just let me fix it.”
Megohime was surprised by the tears that fell down her face, her own body trembling. “Destroy my shoulder like I did to yours!” She croaked, voice cracking. “Mangle my skin and leave it just as ugly..!”
He pulled away suddenly, "I can't, you know I can't! I'm only fucking human, Megohime!" He had never used her whole name before, he must be really upset, the whole thing triggering him hard, "I-I can't...!" He whimpered.
Megohime couldn’t just forget what she had done, she couldn’t forget the way he had begged for his life, and fought against her so hard. “How can you just forgive me so easily?”
The two would retire early for the day, Megohime taking care of Masamune in bed, sitting and holding him close. She would pet his hair until she herself fell asleep beside him, eyes puffy from crying.
