“How… What kind of a man does that? Plans how to kill his wife?” She uttered mortified.
*A hunter. A careful hunter. Especially when his wife is a hunter, too.*
“What about you? The wolf…”
*I made plans for both of us. Good plans. But I’m too much of a coward to pull them through. That’s why loosing tonight won’t be an option to either of us.*

Wow. He's being incredibly forthright in this chapter, and as Marie knows, almost scarily so. I wonder how this revelation will affect their relationship later, if Marie will always have this fear in the back of her mind. Will he/has he been thinking of ways to kill her? And if he discovers he can't, will it ever come to a point where he'll kill them both?

But perhaps it will affect Logan more in the long-term, because I believe him when he says he doesn't think he can kill her, even if it's the right thing to do. And while that luckily keeps them both alive at this point, I think in the long-term it might affect his identity. Although possibly not. *g* That's what makes it a plot twist, I suppose!

But I love the image of being held by a half-man, half-wolf, one that bore enough relation to Wolverine to be truly scary, one who'd fed you earlier in the day, and now confessed in a lisp that he'd planned how to but couldn't kill you...and then bade you sleep. Hehe. Poor Marie.
