Living Not Alive

*Actaea* · 02-03-2019, 09:15 PM

Actaea didn't fight, she didn't even try to fight against Shaye as she gently pushed and nudged her head until her muzzle was across Shaye's shoulder. She sobbed as Shaye pulled her close letting her cry, letting her get it out. The embrace she had never experienced before, she couldn't even remember her mother holding her like this. Actaea found it surprisingly comforting and even though she was still sobbing, the embrace brought a sort of warmth over her heart that made her feel physically better. Her sobbing softened as Shaye began to whisper to her, her ear perking to take in her words.

"I...... I....... Can?" she asked to confirm.

Shaye wasn't her mother and she didn't really expect to hear that Shaye considered her like a daughter. She didn't have much of a relationship with Zuriel before she disappeared from her life. She didn't really have anything like this with Zuriel but at the time she had never gone through anything like this either. She closed her eyes as she tried to calm herself.

"I just don't...... understand.... why.." she said. "Was I not a good enough daughter, were we not good enough children for him and mom?"

She wasn't sure why she was asking Shaye. Shaye didn't know her mother or father and Actaea knew she wouldn't know why he was doing all this. She just felt the need to verbally say what was within her mind.
