Her words made him pause in his movements, hand in his pack, back to her. Zavien didn't really want to look at her, to risk hearing whatever other accusation she might have for him, but the desperation in her voice and apology on her lips suggested this interaction might be different than the last. He'd always let his instincts guide his actions - his heart tell him what was right.
There was a tension in his muscles, a feathering in his clenched jaw, and a reserved expression on his face as he finally turned to look at her. The ache in his chest felt like a fresh bruise from her words, but it still encouraged him to listen to what she might have to say, to hear what might have instigated such a vicious, cruel string of words. He crossed his arms like it might protect him from any other errant words, even as he leveled her with his green gaze, cautious as it granted her permission to speak. Sol stayed where he stood guard, the growl still rumbling low in his chest, although more like a vibration that a sound now.
