Aerin didn't want to live like this. The constant pain and fear and the threat of death hanging over the both of them. Dying seemed like the best thing to do, but to leave Nova when she had nothing else... He couldn't do that. She would die shortly after him anyway, but she would suffer, for he would be gone first. And he couldn't do that to his Nova. She was still his, even as he had thoughts of killing her.
He felt his shirt grow damp, and he clamped down on her hand, keeping it in a vice grip. He was sad and hurt, but he was doing it to her. He didn't want to. "I... can I see you? Please?" There was a soft tone of desperation in his whisper. "I can't... It doesn't hurt as bad when I look at you. Hold my hands if you want. That way... that way I won't try to hurt you." There was still the threat of his teeth gnashing on her skin, but his hands were more likely to try and grab and strangle her.
Aerin was trying so hard to keep it in, and at some point, he realized the pain was dulling, though there were still throbs of cramping pain that hit his arms and chest. If he suffered with it through the night, maybe it would be gone by the next day and he wouldn't have such awful notions of trying to kill his love.
