Her own head was resting back on the pillow, her face cringing a little as she once again tried to get comfortable. "I'll continue to protect you as I do. Dat won' change, as I swore to you as an "Enforcer" I would do anyt'ing to keep you safe an' somewhat 'appy. I still love you Alistaire, even if you don' love me back or t'ink much o' me other den hired muscle."

She hurt telling him all of this, just as much as her body was killing her form the injuries she suffered. She forced a smile and looked over at him.

"I mean, who else are you gonna find to get dere leg blown off for you, an' den be more concerned about you den demselves?"
