Danger Zone

The two women were at opposite sides of the den as Zee offered empty apologies and claims she hadn’t stolen anyone. Belle growled deeply again, ”Silence, you know what you’ve done.” Under furrowed brows her eyes flashed with rage. as Zee coward further, and tried to reason with the emotional Empress. She felt the desperation return to her as Zee presented herself on the floor, submitting herself to whatever whims her mistress deemed appropriate.

”Not even death could keep us apart..” Her voice broke despite the growls that continued to bubble up from her throat. ”Yet here you are,” Tears began to fall from her cheeks once more as she again relived the loss and the heartache he gave her. It was not really Zee she was angry with, it was herslef and Sirius. If she had never loved him to begin with, if he had only accepted her advances when they were young.. she wouldn’t be feeling this awful pain now.

She snarled again, her defenses falling as she was consumed again by the feeling of betrayal. She deflated considerably, feeling so very beaten down despite her many accomplishments. ”Leave me to my grief.” Belle commanded as she slid to the floor again and averted her gaze from the slave’s form. Her most dearly held dreams were dead and dying, and the Empress needed time to herself to deal with the fact apropriately.

The Empress couldn’t remain hung up on a wolf who was not even supposed to be worth her breath. But Seer meant the world to her, and she would have given up everything to be able to love him.
