You and Cregan were arguing, once again. It seemed like a recurring thing at the moment, he would come back from the wall and something would trigger an argument. Yet, no matter what started it, it always boiled down to one thing.

You were both in your shared chambers, arguing about the amount of time he spent at the wall. “Because I love you!” Cregan suddenly snapped, looking at you with a slight sense of desperation that you had never seen before. “If I wish to protect you, I need to man the wall…” he said, his voice lower now.
