Tell Me Something Good

Some power? Erebros should know better than that. Enyo was an ambitious woman. Some was not enough.

Regardless, her chest swelled with pride as her brother's words reached her. Power? Such a thing was rarely bestowed so openly to a woman within the Dunamis. And Erebros, with his calculating gaze and ever-watchful nature, had offered her this honor. It spoke to her efforts, her strength, and their unique bond forged in ambition and tempered by blood. No one else would have received such an opportunity, and she knew it. Enyo stepped forward, shadows clinging to her form until the glint of her mismatched eyes caught the dim light. Her head inclined slightly, a mark of respect and acknowledgment to her brother.

"I am honored, brother," she began her voice a low, "Your faith in me is something I will never forget. Never take for granted." For a moment, she let her words rest in the air, absorbing the gravity of what he was offering: command, authority, and recognition that went beyond her gender and birth. "A leader of a band? Power such as this is rare for a Dunamis woman. I am grateful."

Enyo paused, her gaze sharpening. "But I would be lying if I said it was enough." Her voice dropped lower, a hint of steel beneath the velvet. "I have seen what we could become, Erebros. I have been out there, among the packs. I have stalked them, hunted them, observed their weaknesses. They think themselves powerful they believe themselves beyond the reach of true conquest." Her lips curled into a half-smile, predatory and hungry. "They are wrong."

She leaned in closer, eyes glinting with a dangerous promise. "I have a plan, one that will push our house even further into power. I have my prey. I will tell who but not here not in the Gorge. Who knows who might be listening?" She took a steadying breath, her sincerity evident. "I ask that you trust me, brother. Trust in my strength. In my intelligence. In my blood as a Dunamis. Trust in my namesake as Enyo, the Goddess of War. If I fail, I will lead the band as you wish, honoring your name and our clan. But if I succeed..." Her voice dropped to a near whisper, eyes alight with ambition. "The reward far outweighs the risk brother."

BUT WOULD YOU LOVE ME IF I RULED THE WORLD WORLD WORLD
