"I know that," Asher finally spoke, sounding nothing like himself.

He sounded like a sad, beaten-down version of himself, and Caspian hated to hear it.

"…but I wanted to hear it again. I wanted some reassurance and I chose the wrong time, and the wrong way to say it. Then I ran off and went to get drunk…"

Caspian was speechless for a few seconds after Asher's tirade, he hadn't expected his mate to be so expressive.

Asher rubbed a hand over his face, letting out a deep sigh. "I'm sorry for all that…"

Caspian moved closer almost subconsciously, standing in between Asher's legs.
