"I have nothing to offer to you." Hound locked his blue optics with Mirage's regal golden ones.

"I am the one who is asking," Mirage replied softly, holding his gaze with Hound's for a little then looked down ad his hands held tenderly in Hound's dark hands.

"Mirage," Hound squeezed his master's hands gently, prompting the noble to look back up to him. Hound's expression was hard, not unloving, but definitely serious and tense. "What if your father refuses? Would you be able to live the kind of life I've been brought in? Would you be able to live the life of a slave? To leave behind the luxury, the wealth and the life you know?"

Mirage looked away, feeling a heaviness wrap around his spark under the volley of questions he never considered. A long, uncomfortable silence stretched between them, and Mirage's shoulders slumped visibly. "I... I don't know."

"I don't wish to see you lose the life you know. Nor endure the difficulties that could arise from us becoming mates. I'm yours, my beloved master, for as long as you want me." Hound cupped Mirage's chin, lifting his face so he could place a tender, chaste kiss to his lips. "I love you, Mirage, and because I love you, I must refuse your proposal."

"...I understand," Mirage murmured softly, wrapping his arms around Hound tightly, holding onto him, not wanting to ever let him go. "Take me home, please."
