Austin looked at Catherine her eyes widened as did her mouth as she watched the impossible scene of Marlene crying out, her tears wearing Austin's shirt,
"I-I have never seen Marlene cry before....."
The words unconsciously left Catherine's mouth, causing Austin to speak back at her,
"Well you are not all too well yourself"
His words prompted her to move her focus to him, her eyes gazing into those beautiful purple gem-like eyes but what she saw in them was pain, a type of pain that seemed similar to her.
Catherine's understanding of Austin was that he was a very dangerous individual, she could from what she saw tell that he wasn't someone that was moved by beauty nor was he just any aristocratic idiot, not from what he had shown and done, his true strength too was a mystery and from what Marleen spoke now, his strength wasn't something to neglect.
