300+ There was relief when Anu reassured her that she was not resentful at having the blindfold taking off of her eyes. It would have been an easy thing for the older fey to feel and Savina would have hated for that to happen. She didn't think she could afford to have any more rifts occur between herself and the people she loved and depended on the most in her life. If that were to happen she would truly be lost. Silently she nodded her head in response, though the apology was still in her bleary emerald orbs. She didn't any turmoil on her dear friend, and was sorry to have been the cause of it, even if inadvertently. For really, the one who had caused all of their pain had been the D'Angelo woman. It was unbelievable now that she stood back and really looked at everything she had caused and how many people she had hurt. For someone who seemed on the surface to be a compassionate and kind-hearted person, what her actions left behind was ugly and disturbing. She was like a black widow, poisoning everything she touched. She hoped that Anu was right. She wanted to believe those words and not question them. The fear gripped her though and she could not shake it. Savina had tried to tell him what she had just told Anu. She had tried to tell him why the pain that Naniko had caused her went so deep, that it went beyond what had occurred most recently even if that was the most grievous incident. He hadn't listened though. He hadn't even given her the chance. It was so unlike him. Ehno had never been so callous to her before. Had he been seduced so far that his heart was truly turning against her? No. No, it couldn't possibly happen so quickly, could it? After all they meant to one another he couldn't turn against her so easily. He just couldn't. She breathed deeply, trying to calm her rapidly beating heart. It was so hard, all of this was so hard, and she felt so weak. How was it that she had the position she did when she was so quickly taken to her knees? "I hope he stays. Gods...I hope he stays. It makes me feel selfish but...I don't know...I don't know what I'd do if he...he..." She couldn't say it. Her breaths came shakily and her body shivered. The despair closed in around her, clawing at her already ragged edges. |
