At first it seemed Noah had been comforted, but as she nipped at his lips, his face pained. Confusion took her as well as a pain in the heart at her inability to rouse him from his pained thoughts. She wondered if she had screwed up again by trying to be painful and felt perhaps she should dial things back a notch. It was then he pitifully showed her why his face had contorted in the opposite reaction. It also explained his guilt. 

His case was not completely unfamiliar to her, as she herself had been in dreams where she could not control herself, but the fact Caesarion was involved meant a bit more. It had bugged her before they bonded how he could passionately love the man who had left him and yet could not passionately love her in the same regard, but she knew Noah loved her, and to her, that was enough.

"I understand..." she said soothingly and pet his hair. "Now that you are awake, would you leave me? Would you let me leave? Would you betray our marriage with that man? I don't think so," she said in answer to her own questions. "Betrayal is a willing act of the heart and mind and Yahal forbids it. You may have physically wanted to do what you did in your dream, but your mind was shut closed. You reason and you think when you are awake. When you are asleep you can't stop yourself sometimes. It happens to everyone my moon. You didn't betray me."

She knew that it didn't matter what words she said, he would feel as though he betrayed her because when in dreams, it could feel like you had the option of choice, but now that he was awake, he wouldn't dare do what he had done in his dream.

"Don't cry. It's okay. You need to calm down, you are going to hurt yourself." 

She saw his tears as the expression of his deep emotion, an emotion he had scolded her about before. Somewhere inside her, she hoped he realized that when she cried, it wasn't out of trying to get out of something, but because of her deep emotion. Either way, she would comfort him.
