here it is...
The clouds hung low to the earth today, the happiness that had filled the male earlier in the year had given way to a bored, meandering life that he wasn’t enjoying. The male somehow knew what it was, why he was like this, unfulfilled and dull. Layla had been a brief gift to his mind before he was left to think of free life again. The behemoth sat there in the house that was now just a shadow of it’s former self, drinking from a bottle. Saluce wasn’t drunk by any means, it’d take several more bottles of wine but today he just wanted to drown out the emotions in him. His mate wasn’t what he wanted anymore, even before the stillbirth when they had spontaneously grown bitter toward each other he wondered if it was all just due to two young adults not fully understanding the moment.
Her sword laid on the table beside him along with the necklace she had given him. It was finished but the meaning; the heart behind it was gone. Saluce couldn’t reason out anymore when he had come to this conclusion. Had it been after the still birth? Was he blaming her for their children’s lifeless forms? Some part of him didn’t want to think such thoughts, it wasn’t her fault for that and he couldn’t ever blame her for that. A long sigh escaped his lips as he waited for the inevitable confrontation with her. Knowing it wouldn’t go well, knowing he’d have to leave Dahlia for awhile until the both of them could come to a hesitant understanding between each other. Saluce was done, he was leaving her, she could have the house, and everything in it if she wanted it, he just wanted to be done with their fling, the ties to a life he had rushed into without thinking it through.
Saluce sat in the chair, a note wouldn’t be enough, he’d be a man and tell her to her face at least. Although it would break his heart to see how she took it. Some part of him loved her but knew it wasn’t enough, he’d end this fiasco now before the two of them grew more bitter, or had children to make it harder.
