when the daylight ends

after everything that had happened to her so far, none felt more pressing that her talks with Acere. the two had bonded over the murder of his brother and her revelation that she had done the same with another. it was as if they shared an understanding of each other, yet Heloise felt it was also quite respectful to back away. she knew that due to his age, he would never think of her the way her feelings were budding toward. she was much younger than him, and he wouldn't think of her as anything as a friend. in her best interest, she hoped to step away. out of respect for their friendship, she was going to inform him of her ambition.

lifting her head, Heloise would call for the alpha. she did not know where his den was located, so she tried the pines. it was much quieter there compared to the many housed at the ship. the alabaster woman would not pace; she stood tall and allowed him to come to her as she waited with dignity. she did not sit either, hovering in the air and waiting with bated breath of Acere's arrival. would he even show? or would he be ashamed that she saw him like that, and never show his face to her again?
