again, lacking..
Kaena was his queen, even if Gabriel ultimately wore her crown for the time being. She was the warrior goddess, unmatched by any mortal or otherwise. He would bow his head to only her, groveling at her feet and willing himself to whatever she commanded of him. His brother was a shadow in comparison with their mother—nothing save a figurehead truly beneath the queen that’d created them all from her womb. He didn’t fear his brother nor his wrath. He’d only made the choice not to return to Inferni after he’d left because Kaena was not there.
He’d begun to believe she’d died, lain to waste in some far-away, distant land where he’d never find her nor hear word of her demise. Thus the clan held no interest for the monster, bowing his head and holding rank in a clan that only reminded him of what he’d lost. The world beyond held greater sway, with bodies to burn and souls to steal in countless amounts. After she’d spoken, the prince said nothing, rather laying his head quietly against her fur again and closing his eyes. There was nothing more to say for him, so he fell to silence, holding his breath and listening to the faint thump of her heart beating within her chest.
