Zylvia was not sure what was coming over her today . She just felt remarkably moody . As she snapped at her husband, she saw his eyes widen in panic . She felt immediately guilty, Kaldrek must be having difficulty processing this .
He took her hand in his and peered into her eyes, his brows slightly furrowed and his eyes searching her own, "What is wrong, Zylv? Did I do something? Can I make it better?"
As he spoke to her with worry in his voice, she sighed . And then she stepped closer to him, tucking her body against his, "I am sorry… I just feel so… irritable at the moment . you did nothing deserving of me snapping at you . Can you hold me for a bit though? I think it would help…"
In response, Kaldrek wrapped an arm around her waist, though she noticed that his eyes were still watching her worriedly, "Okay… . do you need to eat something? Are you hungry?"

She snorted with laughter . It was not a bad question with how she was acting, there was a reason all her friends always tried to make sure she never got hungry on them . But that was definitely not it today, "No, I truly do not feel like eating . " She paused, shifting in her feet slightly, "I just… feel somewhat down, I guess . "
Kaldrek gently wrapped his arms about her . She felt herself melting into him, already feeling better . Kaldrek just had that effect on her, he was able to calm her down whenever she got emotional . She could not help but to feel sorry for him having to deal with her whenever she became an emotional mess .
"Well, Zylv, my love, do you want to lie down for a little bit?" Some of her irritableness had faded away, his concern chasing it away .
She nodded, "If you'll hold me . " She had a grip on his arm as she demanded his attention . It was not that he had been ignoring her lately, but she had not gotten to spend as much time as she would have liked with her husband . Perhaps that was what her problem was .
He chuckled at how needy she was being as he nodded, and then walked her to their room where he sat on the bed and looked at her . There was a gentleness in his eyes, one that made her feel entirely weak knowing it was directed at her .
It hit her once again just how much she loved this man with all his imperfections . With a smile starting to bloom on her face, she strode over to him and sat beside of him . She slipped an arm around his torso as she leaned into him . He placed his own arm around her shoulders and squeezed her close to him .
"Feel better, love?" His words came out gentle and completely filled with the deep affection he had towards her .
She snuggled closer to him, letting her head rest on his chest, "Much . Thank you, my lord . "
"Anytime . " He dropped a kiss on her forehead, as he slowly pulled her down with him so that the were stretched across the bed .
Zylvia grinned as she scooted closer to him and slipped her other arm around him, "Hey I really am sorry I was snappish earlier . "
"Its okay . Just worried me that I might have upset you in some way . Would not have been the first time I accidentally did so . "
She giggled, acknowledging the truth of the statement . As much as she loved her sweet sorcerer, he definitely had trouble with realizing certain boundaries . But now that he had given her a good idea of what went on in his head, she decided to be a little more patient with him .
A sigh escaped her lips as she lay in his arms . She loved having these moments with him . His arms holding her snug but not to tight . The way he had of constantly placing kisses on her forehead . His twinkling eyes, and the fact he never seemed to want to stop .
She pressed a kiss to his lips and grinned at him . His eyes had half closed as he looked at her with deep love etched into his face, "Zylv, I love you, now and always . "
She clung to him and buried her head into his chest, a huge smile on her face . She would never get tired of his assurances of his love for her . she murmured quietly, "I love you too, my dearest husband . "
