what id give to not be alone

Spring was close, the warm season was right around the corner and unlike the last one this one promised hope of a new year. Not one that was shadowed by the volcano and its near endless winter. She would be spending it without Iolaire though, while she journeyed the countryside in search of a cure. Deathbelle prayed they would be fruitful in more ways than one and she couldn’t argue its worthiness of good news. Belle gave Io a smile and let her continue, gone with the snow and on with vacation! In those moments she couldn’t see past her own desires to enact Iolaire’s words. Was Venom ready, were her children ready? The kids would be six months old by the time the summer rolled around and hopefully Iolaire would have her own on the way.

”Where do you think I should go?” She asked her with the hint of a smile, liking the idea more with each passing moment. ”I wouldn’t want to miss the arrival of mini Iolaires.” She chuckled, feeling the hope of new life. Especially for one who would have to work so hard to get to parenthood. Deathbelle lowered her head to press her cheek against Io’s paw that lingered over her own. She still felt strongly the love they shared.
