[Words meant to distance her from him, yet he curls an arm around her to make her more comfortable as she settled herself on top of him.]

[Zero goes quiet after those words, he could feel the warmth radiating off her but it does little to dispel the guilt. She was feeling pain because of him.]
I'm sorry. [His fingers slide into her hair, settling there.] I can't take the pain away.
[He wasn't a Pureblood who could relieve her pain with a simple touch. Zero was made to be a weapon, and weapons left nothing but pain and heartache in their wake. He'd always known that, but never was it so clear as now with Ishtar snuggled into him, tired and in pain because of him.]
