After she left the garden from going to talk to Aliana and get the treatment from her, she went out to the stream and cleaned herself up. She had no doubt that she still smelled heavily of Chimera and Aliana and even though it would be impossible to get all of that scent out of her fur she could at least wash away the remnants of what they had done. While she was bathing her thoughts shifted to Siren and guilt twisted her stomach. She had forced herself not to think about her love while she went to see Aliana because she knew she had to get the contraceptive before anything else, but she knew once she was done here she would have to face the sweet, delicate face of her Queen and would have to admit why she had been away for almost a day and a half. It was late now so she slightly hoped that Siren would simply be asleep when she reached their room, but she knew if she was she'd just be laying awake while the shame ate away at her. She shook off and started walking back into the building and down the corridor that would lead her to Siren and her steps slowed as she neared the door. What was done was done and she was at least happy about the development that had happened in the relationships she had with Aliana and Chimera - though they had developed in directions she had never expected. She didn't know what they would feel about each other when they saw each other again in the light of day, but she saw them both completely differently now and they knew far more of her than she had ever intended for them to. She stopped just shy of the door to their room, her ears flicking back as she gathered up her courage. She thought about how she had reacted when Siren told her what had happened with the man she called a water god, how hurt she had been, how she had walked away from Siren and she fully expected Siren to do the same. She expected Siren to send her away and she would have deserved it if she did. Dalila forced herself forward, quietly slipping into the room that was faintly lit by moonlight that was streaming through the windows that lined the wall, some light curtains blowing in the breeze over them. She walked into the room toward the bed, and a shift from the beautiful Queen that laid there told her that her hope of Siren being asleep wouldn't come true. Her ears folded back as she walked over to where Siren was laying, hardly able to meet her gaze. "Siren... There's... I need to talk to you," she whispered, glancing at the sleeping pups. They were far too young to really understand or remember anything that was said, but she didn't want to risk waking them up either. She gave a nod toward the room that connected to their bedroom, the study that they had converted into a place for them to store and prep their healing supplies, giving her a questioning glance. She didn't wait for an answer, turning to go into the separate room to wait for Siren. If Siren didn't want to talk to her she still didn't deserve to be in the same bed as Siren right now so she'd sleep in here if need be. |
