Green eyed monster

The time spent here had resulted in a few comforts managed to be brought during periods of relative safety. Deathbelle hadn’t been able to let go of her favorite pillows, and the pups still clung tightly to their cheetah furs. Even though all of them were quickly outgrowing the gifts. The Empress did better when she was distracting herself, and Venom lay sprawled on the floor in front of her. They were practising sigils and runes when Zee’s knock was heard.

”Of course, my darling Zee.” She offered affectionately as she prompted Venom to clean up the supplies. ”Run along Venom. Go make sure Pesto is alright.” Of all of the pups her daughters reaction to Archon’s death was the most worrying. While the other girls seemed to draw closer Pestilence seemed to reject any idea of their father.

Deathbelle shifted to allow Zee room in her normal place at her bed. The air was still cold, and spring’s promise still seemed so far away. ”What’s troubling you?” Much had happened in the last few weeks.
