Venom allowed Chimera and his ladies to settle in to Ashen and their new home before she started sending for them. The Empress knew it would be important to have a one on one conversation with each of them. After Siren, her own half sister who she had never really been close with. And who might have still held a grudge against her for handing her over to the Armada for a time. There was Aliana. A woman striving for years to bring sight to her brother’s pale eye.

Venom was starting to accept that she wouldn’t ever see again, thankfully she had adapted well. That was no real consolation to knowing she would never see her younger children. She didn’t get her hopes up as she sent for the healer woman. Venom made herself comfortable in the common area, with a little fire going for light and warmth. Not that the Empress could see the light, Aliana would appreciate it while she was examining her. Making herself comfortable she awaited the arrival of her brother’s mate.
