Where The Edges Blur

Run. Her insides screamed. Run. Don?t listen to him. Just run. He would move towards her more, Ellis? concern growing as she looked into those stormy gray eyes. His lips would curl above his teeth, moving towards her just a bit more before speaking. ?Eno-ugh,? He would rumble to her. The female would come to a stop, something in his voice coaxing her to comply, despite her heart pounding in her chest.

He would motion to the den, speaking of the plants she used. Don?t. She would give a small nod. Don?t do it. It?s a trick. She would swallow, dipping her head apologetically before starting towards the den. ?S-sorry...? Don?t apologize! It?s a trick! He?s trying to manipulate you! What choice did she really have? Did she really even have any chance at avoiding it if it was his wish to take her? You need to run NOW! Once you are in the den you?re going to be trapped! But her paws would lead her inside the expanded den.

It was large enough for her and another, even a mother with pups, along with herbs sorted and stored all around, separated on the dock leaves she used to carry them in. Ellis would turn her head, looking back to the male now. ?I?m sure that are still many other herbs in Alacritia to discover yet... But this is what I?ve come across thus far. These two, the marigold and comfrey, are what I used to treat you.? Her fear would not leave her... And her conscious would groan at her. You?ve done it now. You?ve trapped yourself... Your fate lays in his paws.




"Speech"

"Settle down." Said my heart.

...and so here it was I would settle down.
