Is That A Cat?

There were plenty of new faces in the polar sound now. Sephrian had made his intentions blatant. They were to rebuild their legacy under his domination. She’d kept her distance from the group, sticking close to her brother when two women had collected her for a hunt. She’d racked her brain for their names at first. Kaino. And Absinth.

Leaving her brother behind with a wicked grin she’d followed them, letting Kaino lead the way to their prey. She stayed quiet until her cousin mentioned not dying. With a smile and a shake of her head “Same to you” before she too fell into place within their triangle of death.

Kaino had managed to herd the big cat into an open space. And ely felt her muscles sing as she watched the other girls initiate the hunt… or game. Whatever you called this.

Elysia didn’t jump straight in, instead she watched the pattern between the other girls and the cat. Timing the reactions. And then Absinth lunged for its side.

Game on. That darkness sparked inside her as she now joined in the dance. She lunged for the cats neck at the same time as Absinth. She wanted to hear it scream, wanted to fade it’s warm metallic blood on her tongue.
