What do you Seek?

Conflicting emotions battled for prominence within her twisted mind as her hardened gaze lingered upon that of her brother?s, confused as to whether she should feel gracious with their reunion or angered by the fact that they had even had to reunite with one another after spending such a long period of time apart. There had never been a doubt that her lost sibling had died ? no, her family would not just drop dead of their own accord ? so there was no reason to rush forward and embrace him, instead choosing to remain rigid in her posture, unwavering from the spot she had rooted herself to as the titan scrutinized her developed physique. The wraith would allow her own pupils to devour his form simultaneously, satisfaction breaching her as she acknowledged the evident strength he harbored by the thick padding of his musculature that he had lacked as a mere child when she had last seen him ? surely his strength would contest her own now. She would expect the theory to be tested in due time, but for now, the bloodshed would remain nonexistent until her brother had adequately explained himself for leaving her side ? their family?s side when he was needed most. His contented sigh would bring her attention back upon his facial features, hardened gaze softening as the faintest trace of a grin tugged at the brute?s lips but countenance failing to portray the same emotion in favor of its typical vagueness. Triangular ears would careen forward to catch his words as he commented on her scent, skull minutely bobbing in confirmation of the statement in regard to her allegiance. ?I do,? the babe spoke confidently, brows furrowing slightly as she registered the anger that appeared to have consumed him upon his realization. ?I?m starting small, brother, you see?? she added quickly, attempting to quell his discontent with an explanation. ?First a soldier, an ally to the queen,? she paused then, a small smirk enveloping her porcelain features before continuing, ?And then a traitor as I thieve her crown and leave her as naught but a mangled corpse.? Arrogance was thick in her tones but she knew the capabilities of her masked Empress, and they did not number at many. He would apologize for his absence then and she would succumb to silence once more, emotions draining from her facial features as she pondered over whether or not her sibling was worthy of her forgiveness. ?I?ve been with mother as you should have been ? as Ares should have been,? she responded to his question pointedly, bitterness lacing her tones as she mentioned their disloyal brother who was likely in the company of Devya rather than his own flesh and blood. All sense of distress would vacate her interior, however, as her brother maneuvered closer to where she stood, brushing lightly against her shoulder without her stiffening at his touch before dropping to his haunches beside her. The babe would hesitate for no more than a moment before attempting to press her nose against his flesh, signifying that he was within her good graces once more as she solidified their bond. No more would he leave her side and no more would she leave his ? it was how it should have been all along. |
