sorry for her abrupt departure…
He knew, good. But she wasn’t satisfied. Even asking his own mother for death wasn’t enough for the fey. Her face remained calm, but it took all the energy so possessed to keep it so. She would let him go, just as she was told. That’s a lot to ask for, from your mother. Though Anu would have thanked her for ridding her world of him. No, Anu corrected her vindictive brain.
You could have taken care of it yourself. She could have tasted blood on her tongue as she spoke. It was wrong, and even Anu felt it. Looking down, she thought of the children again. They are taken care of, and loved. her voice was lighter, as they left her mouth hastily. Her arms wrapped across her chest, and she forced her eyes to look into his. They will know, who you are and if I can help it be spared from knowing what you did. Just attempting to give him some sort of twisted comfort enraged her.
But if you loose your mind, her voice was suddenly filled with the hate she felt, unable to give him all the forgiveness she had promises, not at that moment. and think you can set foot in that territory. You wont have to ask your mother a second time. Light blue eyes blazed, and the threat came from the empty chest she possessed. It might have been nothing coming from the small wolfess, but it held everything she possessed.
Turning her back to him, Anu didn’t give the lighthouse a second glance before walking away. It felt wrong, but she left him. Only to hope he would rot with the rest of the corpses that lay strewn within the tower. That’s all he was, a walking corpse. |
