As if she had to ask, losing her was not an option. Not anymore. He knew they shouldn't work, but somehow they did, and her trying as hard as she was didn't go unnoticed either. His lips turned up into a half smile. "No," He joked, leaning in. "You're strong enough to protect yourself, and that's not something to be ashamed of." He moved his hand up, brushing his thumb over her cheek. "But I'll be there to help you, help you protect yourself." There was absolutely no way he was allowing Bela to be harmed and wouldn't hesitate to step in should she be exposed to her weakness. "So, yes. I'll do whatever it takes to keep you safe. You're my only reason I keep coming home." He worked harder to return safe for her.
