fucking stupid [2/2]

I only just realized it.

Ever since I fell in love with the Sirens, I treated them differently. To the world, I was Limitless. But to them, I was John Smith. And they felt it. 

Both the good and the bad. As women, it made them feel loved. Being as warriors, I did nothing but insult them. I wanted to stop that. In return for their devotion to me, I will stop pampering them. 

From this battle on, I will truly treat them like my strongest swords.

'My {Kindred}. The only women I will ever love. I need an answer. Will you all follow me?'

What I felt from the girls' links confused me. Of course there was adoration, love, excitement, and respect. But there was something else. It felt bittersweet. What was this feeling?

'HAHAHA! How I have missed this! That passion! This overbearing arrogance! Beloved! This is how you were during the enlistment. And this was why I fell in love with you! OF COURSE I WILL FOLLOW!'
