Ceres nodded to him as she reached for the alcohol. She moved the sleeve up so she could start work on the knife cut on her arm. Surprisingly Ceres showed no pain when she started work on it, also that she could do it with one hand. 2 years of practice under Asher's constant beatings and bleeding forced her to learn. " I'm able to handle the pain easier if I'm the one doing the harming. It's weird but true."

Kalen nodded,"I'll leave you to it, call me if you need me." He said as he went to walk into the kitchen so he could give her privacy.
-
(ugh I'm that way. If I'm the one doing the medical stuff to myself I can handle it like it's nothing but if something tries to help me ugh I'm a big baby lol)
After a while Ceres finished cleaning and stitching herself up. She wanted to go to Kalen but didn't dare to stand,she knew she had lost a lot of blood. Standing would just cause her to collapse to the floor forcing Kalen to come help her. Instead she curled up on the couch resting against the arm. " Alright I'm done."
-
Kalen came back into the room, "Hey, you should sleep now. Give your body rest after all you've been through, god knows you deserve some rest." He said as he sat beside her and pulled her close, hugging her.
-
Ceres looked up to him as she wrapped her arms around him. " Will you stay with me while I sleep?"
-
Kalen smiled softly and nodded, "Of course. I'll stay with you." He said as he let her lean on him.
-
Ceres smiled up to him before closing her eyes. It didn't take her long to pass out. The whole time she slept she didn't let him go in fear that if she didn't he wouldn't be there when she woke.
-
Kalen held her and stroked her head until she fell asleep. He also fell asleep beside her, still hokding her.
-
After several hours Ceres finally stirred, she was feeling slightly better now that she was able to get some rest but not her normal 100% self. She noticed she was still just wearing a robe and she blushed lightly, but she didn't want to move she was happy to be resting against Kalen.
-
Kalen felt her move so he soon stirred,"Ceres?" He called softly. He noticed she was still leaning against him so he smiled,"Morning! How are you feeling?" He asked, still holding her close.
-
Ceres looked up to him smiling " I feel slightly better..I'm sore and still tired but not as bad as before." She sat up slowly holding her robe close with her hand. Her muscles ached but she wasn't going to let Kalen know that she just kept on smiling. " I kinda want to go change into something not so easily to fall off me."
-
Kalen smiled,"Good idea, it's awkward for both of us." He said, stroking her head.
-
Ceres nodded to him before slowly standing, she didn't trust her legs to not give under her. Seeing she could stand she made her way to her room using the walls to hold herself up. Ceres quickly changed into a pair of short shorts and a pink tank top not really realizing how much was showing of her more inappropriate bite marks that was on the inner thigh and top of her right breast. To her all she cared about was that it was comfortable. She made her way back down stairs to Kalen.
-
Kalen smiled and the smile fell when he saw the bitemarks."He really was that cruel with you? I'm glad he's dead." He growled softly, more sad than angry anymore.
-
Ceres looked down at one of her bite marks before looking away " Physically this is nothing to what he has done, but this time he was aiming for mental abuse. Playing upon my fears and acting on them is far worse than anything he could do to me."
-
Kalen nodded,"I'm sorry i couldn't get to you sooner. Nothing like that will ever happen to you again, not while i'm here." He promised as he stood up and hugged her close.
-
Ceres hugged him back a small smile crossing her lips " Thank you" was all she could say before there was a knock on the door. Ceres looked to the door wondering who that was.
-
Kalen frowned,"Who could that be?" He asked, he let go of her and went to the door to answer it. He opened the front door.
-
The girl from before that came to take Ceres away was at the door holding his scythe, she handed it back to him when he opened the door. " You left this sir at my former masters home. I thought you'd like it back." Ceres looked over seeing the girl she knew as Mira, sadly though Mira was a broken doll only knew a life of services since the day she was born. She was acting out of speculation of what her master would want and nothing more to please him regardless of him now dead.
-
Kalen blinked,"Well thank you but you know you're master's gone...right?" He asked, concerned about the little girl.
