Another groan rumbles out from the man as James pulls him in closer, but as he listens Dorian can hear the pain seeping into his voice. [i]'He is going at it a little too hard, but at least he listened to the first instruction'[/i] Dorian reaches out with a hand, smoothing it along his back in an effort to calm him. He is about to tell him to be more gentle when he notices the man's heartbeat. [i]'It is slowing already. We are definitely going to have to find a second one tonight'[/i] His eyes follow the stream of blood dripping down the man's shoulder and chest. [i]'Hopefully the charm works properly and he will think he was attacked by a dog or something'[/i] Smoothing his fingers through James's hair he murmurs softly, “Now little one, you need to stop. Do not worry, we will hunt more. However if you kill him we will have to go through far more trouble than one meal is worth.” Trusting the boy to do as he is told he simply tugs softly on the hair in his fingers in encouragement rather than forcing him to stop.
