I'm your falling star returning

"But he didn't." Azalea couldn't help but hold a sense of relief. That her sons held no love for that monster the way Armada children did. "He sent one of his minions to break apart our pack and home and then tore us from our family. That is not an ideal father." As her sorrows shined through there was a break through moment. He came forward to comfort her and Azalea smiled warmly as she nuzzled into the burly boy's neck. Azalea still could not get over how big he had gotten. It just wasn't right to be shorter than your child. "You're an Adravendi, true as any. Those damn Armada's can cross you off their family tree because you have plenty of family here." The Adravendi family was a healthy growing organism, the Armada family was more like cancer. The poor boy seemed hardly convinced of Azalea's happiness and she couldn't blame him. She couldn't quite convince herself either. "Are you sure?" He asked, "You don't sound too convinced." She laughed lightly. "When I was pregnant with you it was miserable. Being fat and moody is not exactly every girl's dream. I'm already hungry all the time." The last sentence was said with a pout. "Giving birth sucks even more. I'll spare you the disgusting details but I had not the slightest clue what I was doing. I felt quite lucky to not become the laughing stalk of the pack after that." "Do you remember when you were born? Its a little hilltop that overlooks the plains and the forest beyond. There are a few shade trees and a small creek. Before I gave birth you two would roll out in my abdomen and I would sit there looking out over Valhalla and talk to you two. Of course then I was convinced there was only one of you in there." She smiled at him. Those were good times, sitting peacefully watching over the home she loved. Perhaps it was weird to talk to your stomach but Azalea's growing motherly instinct had made it feel right. |
