The puppies in Asmodeus' care were growing quickly, napping less and spending more time on exploration and troublemaking. Deus had started to resent them, not for the difficulty in raising two puppies, but for the reminder of the man who had gifted them to him, promoted him, and then slaughtered his sister. The puppies pushed their way out of his den in a tumbling pile of fur, and for once Deus did not chase after them. Let them die and be buried as Danta was. The dog's playful yips faded as they moved further from the den and Deus merely shuffled his forepaws upon the dirt and lay down his head, trying to ignore their absence and the desire to chase after them. His eyes slid shut a brief moment, but a frightened cry brought Deus fast to his paws. He peeled from the den quickly, sprinting across the grasses toward his companion's call. He came upon them quickly, finding they had hid themselves behind the figure of another small wolf. His heart lurched at the sight of his mother's form, wasted away by the season past. Deus stepped towards her, opening his mouth to speak when suddenly the glowing eyes in the tree line caught his attention. He stepped up alongside the woman, angling his body slightly so he could put himself between the creature and Riva without obstructing her view. "Go home mother, I'll take care of it." He murmured, soft into her ear. |
