Iolaire was the most relaxed Deathbelle had seen her yet, and she accepted all of the Empress’s affections. They basked in the warmth together as soft whispers were shared between the two. Belle was heartened to know her sweet Io would make sure to enjoy the meal with her lover next time. Though she was assured Iolaire’s condition was normal she couldn’t help but worry for the exhausted healer.

Though her father had treated her no different from her siblings there were many in her family and the court that looked down with obvious disdain at Yvonne’s children. Their older brother Jekyll for instance was assured that Belle was inferior and he didn’t let her forget it. Now though, Deathbelle had proven them wrong many times over. Hamiclar’s Empire did not live on through his heir Hannibal, but his illegitimate daughter Deathbelle.

Her story paused as she was allowed to steal a kiss, Io felt the shift in the mood and rearranged herself quietly. Deathbelle felt comfort in her golden gaze and leaned forward to nuzzle her cheek before beginning anew. Her top paw was used to gently caress Iolaire’s chest between her own tea cupped paws. The steady rhythm calmed Deathbelle’s thoughts as she continued into her tragic tale.

”All good things must come to an end. The famine struck. Many of my kin perished, and it was during this time Sirius and I were separated, I was forced to leave him on the battlefield. I had to assume him dead. This was another time of much struggle and loss,but eventually my brother led the charge to leave. Not before our parents were all dead. The Klein Empire was ended.” Her voice hadn’t changed from its whisper, but her sorrow was obvious. Her mother’s face, her sister’s features, they still haunted her even now. ”Hannibal made a few attempts to rebuild, but in the end he was unable.” She admitted, having been one of the wolves who had wished to follow under his guidance. He had been the true heir. ”After he disappeared the first time I took up his mantle and raised a pack on my own. I met my husband, Archon in this time. Our relationship was started in contract, I’d only wished him to be sire to my heirs.” Sirius had her heart, even when she thought him dead. Archon was the substitute for the one her heart really wanted.

”After I became pregnant though it seemed like the whole world aligned just for use and I fell in love with him. We became a family.” It had been nothing she expected. ”My brother Hannibal returned and he brought the family still loyal to him into the fold. He took up his place beside me as ruler. It felt like everything was perfect.” Everything had been perfect. She married Archon, Sirius had found his love in Zee, her children were blessed. ”Then the eruption happened.” Her voice was dark again and she felt her heart ache at Archon’s loss. ”It felt like the famine all over again.”

She pressed herself against Iolaire renewed, reliving the devastation once more. It was easier with the beautiful woman in her arms.
