She blushed a little at his words, surprised at how awkward and uncertain she felt around him. This had been the first person that taught her how to spar, to hunt, to heal. He had begun the lessons of plants when she had been so young, so full of hope. He had been the one she had run to, when she thought her mother was being unfair. He had once been the pillar for her strength. When had he become a stranger to her? In part it was grief. She still blamed herself for her mothers death. She blamed Rhyme a little, too, but she hadn’t realised it until she looked into his familiar eyes. She looked away, ashamed at her doubts. She knew what Rhyme would have given to see their mother safe. To bring Motif home. But it wasn’t Rhyme that had fought for her, given up his freedom for her. He had been too busy finding another lov- she cut her thoughts off, understanding then the deeper, darker shape of her heart. She hated herself a little for even thinking it. She knew it wasn’t true, but some part of her was going to struggle with it. She wiped her nose on her shoulder, hoping he hadn’t seen her thoughts on her face as she offered him a wobbly smile. “Thank them for me” she whispered softly. |
