we must hide our love

The russet viper?s vow to remain faithful to the former Tortugan queen appeased her, and yet, simultaneously it perplexed her. The pallid wench still hadn?t quite determined what qualities she possessed that attracted the former beta ? or anyone, for that matter ? to her rule, but she would refuse to question the woman?s unwavering loyalty and would allow it to be kept a mystery that would remain unresolved, forever a nagging question to burn at the back of her brain. Perhaps questioning her charisma and silver tongue that so easily won the favor of her peers was a route to avoid when she needed to maintain the fa?ade of an imperial ruler, especially around the one canine she had grown quite fond of.
Lids fluttered back to reveal the windows to her internal feelings, blockaded by the emotional barriers she had constructed and preserved, as the other female piped in once more, again confirming her support to the white wraith?s cause and questioning it all in the same breath. Curiosity struck her rather than anger that her plots had been refused ? sure, she possessed certain traits of a tyrant, but she was open to each and every suggestion should they prove to be favorable. A curious hum resonated from her leathery lips to beckon the woman to proceed, ears cocked in her companion?s direction expectantly. Surely Vi had proven to be competent with her many viable qualities, so the witch did not suspect anything less than brilliant would fall upon her ears.
