its a lion's heart that will tumble and tear apart

AW, preferably if your character has met Ezra before. I miss my boy, I feel like I haven’t written a half-decent post with him in forever >____> If no one replies I’ll just make it read only. Big Grin

She was finally, finally gone.

He could feel it in the way the house creaked, in the way he felt dead inside. Ezra had woken up recently and found all of Ever’s things gone, finally. She must have snuck into the house in the middle of the night and left. He hadn’t checked if Saphraine had been taken too, but he wouldn’t be surprised if he had. The secui couldn’t remember the last time Ever had slept next to him; she was starting to feel like a dream he couldn’t quite remember. Her beautiful, beautiful face in his mind’s eye was getting blurry. He couldn’t quite remember the mischievous grin she had when they played together.

Eli still didn’t know. He was growing up ever quicker, and the last time he had mentioned his mother was when he had met Liam. Ezra felt horrible lying to his own flesh and blood but he couldn’t tell him his mother was truly gone. Her scent had faded from the house long ago, though he still managed to get whiffs of her when he rummaged through his personal belongings. His scarf smelled like her. Ezra pulled it out of the closet and flung it across the room as hard as he could before the man finally let go of his guarded exterior and broke down. The most beautiful woman in the world was gone, and Ezra couldn’t do anything about it.

The immense loss of his love was starting to show on his exterior, too. His shedding coat was looking thinner than usual; he had been giving whatever food he had caught to his son. He barely ate, barely slept, and barely thought about anything. His heart had left his body the moment Arydia died. Eli was as joyous as ever, though, so his son was the only thing that kept him going these days. If Eli hadn’t survived, Ezra would have left this land long ago.

Eli was off on his own playing somewhere in the territory. Ezra finally trusted the pup to go off and venture on his own, now that he knew where the bungalow was. This was probably the only free time Ezra would have to himself for a while unless he would let Eli go out on his own more often. The secui curled up on his bed, tears slowly falling down his face. He didn’t know how to get over this. How does one ‘get over’ the loss of their other half? The pain in his chest stung worse than usual now that he was finally showing how he felt. His chest heaved with soreness and the man lay on his empty bed, staring at the doorway. His usually wound up mind was devoid of any thoughts other than loss.

He was trying his best not to grieve, but he couldn’t help it. Ezra, after what felt like forever, got off his bed and slinked outside. His fluffy tail wrapped around his body as he sat down in the sand, letting out the most mournful howl. Ever was gone and nothing else mattered anymore; he missed his moon more than he could ever articulate. He was truly alone now.
