Cypress had been warned and by many. Those warnings had already proved true enough in his encounter with his half sister and her poisoned serpent tongue. Still he had thought he had done the right thing in catching his own breakfast rather than taking meat from any stores the Infernians might of had. He was a guest, but he did not wish to be a burden and feared that if he became one he would be asked to leave even sooner than the few precious days he had been granted. Or was he meant to fast for the duration of his visit here. Certainly this is not what he had expected that the result of his morning hunt would be this.
He accepted that he was not exactly welcomed here and that he would never be allowed to become a member of his father's clan, but the hostility he was being greeted with yet again left him dumbfounded. Was it all just because he was wolf? Or another bastard child of Gabriel. What ever reason they had he could not understand it. He had no reasoning for such prejudice, nor could understand how it was that they did. They weren't so different, were they?
Her words were insulting and stung at his pride. He had not been raised a liar. "Then ask him if you don't believe me. Ask Ezekiel or our father." There was no other proof he could offer, aside from his resemblance to the former Aquila Cypress had nothing to offer as proof of his word and it was obvious the she-devil would not be so simply satisfied. "I have no reason to lie to you." Eyeing her cautiously, he found the curling of her claws to be rather unnerving. It was as if she wished for them to carve through his flesh yet again.
