Pushing herself away from him and off the bed, standing so quickly that she sees spots in front of her eyes. Trying to focus, she shakes her head and glares at him.
"Wait just a fucking minute. He made a mistake - I was there, we both know it. The beast got control. But it hurt both of us, not just me. It hurt him too. I was inside his head, Asher. He knows what he did - and so do I. Nothing is going to take away from the fact that it happened. I'm getting over it, healing."
"And he is helping me heal. Just as I am helping him. This has nothing to do with continued violation or disrespect. I had the opportunity to leave the pard. I had the opportunity to choose another alpha."
"I won't do it. I care about these people, my brother - I care about him too much. And if I can learn to live again, to move beyond it..then dammit you do to."
"I may be marked by you - I may be yours, Asher - but I will remain true to myself no matter what."
She stares in shock, her face turning pale. Seeing the hard look on Gabe's face behind him, her face falls, and she lowers her head to look at the floor.
Her voice dead, cold. "Asher, please - I would like you to go home. Please leave. I - will be in contact with - I'll call you later. Please."
She turns silently, and slowly makes her way out to the porch, starts walking away towards her house - her clothes, everything left behind.

"A good morn to you both and please... keep her safe on this mission. I apologize for bringing this to your home, Monsiuer Schuyler."
No mention of apology for what he had actually said, just where and how.
Turning on heel, walking out of the bedroom.
