Prometheus noticed his voice was scaring her, and toned it down a bit. "Lycans have extremely good sense of smell, you know, how'd you get past that?" He was asking out of curiosity, it got the better of him sometimes.

"I didn't." Amelia said. "They took me because I proved useful." Her tone had become slightly touched with bitterness. "I tried to run away so many times..." She whispered. "It's so hard though."

Prometheus nodded, reassuring her again. "I understand," He repeated from before. "Other Lycans don't like to lose things they have.... especially women." He was now thinking of Ceon and Layna, this conversation reminded him of many people.

Amelia thought he was talking about her situation. Her eyes widened and she whirled to face him. "Did he contact you? What did he do?" She was paniced at the thought of the French pack leader coming to New York. What else did he have to do to her before he was satisfied? Amelia thought depressedly.

Prometheus gulped and noticed how scared and scarred she was. "It's okay, he's gone and not coming back any time soon....." He replied, remembering the sick man. "I think I might have killed him, he tried to get my old mate in bed a few days before she......... died.........." He put his head down, remembering his old mate.

Amelia put her hand on Prometheus's shoulder in what she hoped was a comforting gesture. "It's okay. I'm sure your mate is happy now, away from this deteriorating world. And it has been about a hundred years since I last saw the pack leader. Maybe he was killed." Amelia really didn't know much about comforting people so she shared her true thoughts on the matter with Prometheus. Well, the first part was true, the part about her old pack leader she didn't beleive in the slightest.

Prometheus nodded. "That... that could be true..." He said, his head still hanging. As Amelia placed her hand on his shoulder, his head perked up, meeting her with a smile. "Thanks...... I need other people's comfort once in a while...."

Amelia pulled her hand away tentatively. "Um, your welcome." Although Amelia really didn't know which part of what she'd done was comforting. The least she was hoping for was that it didn't make him feel worse. She turned her head up to the sky to try to see just one star. It was really difficult this being a city and all. She took off her hat and shoved it in her pocket. It was cramping her ears. She rubbed the back of her hand against her ears to try and soothe them.

Prometheus was thinking hard and didn't say anythhing. When he came back to reality, he followed her gaze and saw the one star. "You don't see much of those these days........."

"Too much pollution here." Amelia said quietly. She really didn't like cities. What was the point of a buffet of people if she didn't want to eat them? The no stars thing only made it worse. She hadn't seen the moon in ages either. Amelia became lost in thoughts of the French Countryside, trying to block the other memories that went with it.

Prometheus nodded and kept looking at the star. "It's beautiful, isn't it....." He said, meaning the stars. "The last one I saw was when my old mate was with me......."

"Oh, um, I'm sorry..." Amelia said. She hadn't meant to bring up painful memories with her selfish mourning of the night sky. She looked away from the sky and into the darkness of the park.

Prometheus looked towards Amelia and shook his head. "No, don't be, it is a pleasant memory." He remembered that night, the night the got married. It was his favorite night of all the long ones in his life.

Amelia nodded. She heard a twig snap and jumped away. "Oh," Amelia had been the one who snapped it. She internally shook herself. Snapping twigs definately meant she needed to focus on nothing again. She worked to clear her mind of her memories.

Prometheus chuckled when the limb snapped, and looked back to the star. Yet again, he remembered every detail of that night.
