Referring to Relena as a child had been enough to prevent Nero from making any more perverted comments, so Estinien can't say he regrets the misunderstanding. What he does regret is Nero catching the two of them right now.
Estinien glances back at Relena, and his expression very clearly doesn't read 'oh good, it's this guy.' Instead, he grits his fangs and growls warily, his brand new tail trashing behind him.
"She's weary from being assaulted by those damn mages," he says. Though the flash of anger is reigned in, his expression still contains a warning. "Choose your words carefully, cousin."
With the way Estinien says that, it's almost like Nero isn't his cousin at all! Really, he's just in anticipation of him saying something dreadful to her, which is something he'd really like to avoid.
