He… He wanted her to do his job for him? Her father would never as her to do anything like that… not unless he didn’t have a choice. Cassandra bit her lip, even more worried than she had been a moment ago. What he was asking her to do was extremely illegal, not only asking her to work in the field of a medical position she didn’t have a degree for, but asking her to forge his signature on work that could, if she did it wrong, come back on him. What had happened, that would have him flying off? She didn’t want him to go, and she nearly said as much, going so far as to open her mouth, before closing it once more, no words escaping her. 

She didn’t want him running off into danger… she didn’t want to lose her father… and she feared she just might, he had such a strong sense of honor and duty… She met his gaze, knowing she couldn’t let him down, but hoping all the same that he wouldn’t go while knowing that he would. She listened intently while he spoke, but she nearly burst into teas as he hugged her, kissed her forehead, feeling like a child again. She closed her eyes tight, feeling the sting of the tears in her eyes, and wanting to hold them back, knowing she’d break his heart if she didn’t. 

[color=lightcoral]”Okay, Daddy.... “[/color] she said softly, opening her eyes when he went to go, watching him leave, and wanting to go after him. But like her father, she had a strong sense of duty and honor. He’d left her here, knowing she’d do what he’d asked, trusting her to do it well, putting an enormous amount on the line, not to mention trouble if she messed up. He was putting so much faith in her… she couldn’t let him down. 

Not ever. 

She turned back to Hunter, more than a little scared, worried and concerned, for a moment not knowing what her first move should be.
