Keep Careful Watch of My Brother's Souls

In one instant, Sigmarr's words made Valeriya feel horribly ashamed. They struck her hard and without mercy, pulling into question every thought and action she'd brought to life over the time span of her absence. Had each night she spent away been a betrayal? Had she left Sigmarr to wallow in the mire her mother's disappearance had caused. But then she scoffed, anger filling the cracks in her resolution. The fae's eyes narrowed. It was not that she thought her brother was wrong in his desire to stay home, merely that she could not believe he of all people would prattle on at her about family. "Oh yes, our beloved pack. Sig, I wouldn't take it personally if it's falling down around you. Raisa didn't light it on fire when she left, it was built from ash to begin with. And I'd hardly call half starving the time of my life, but at least it's real!" She took a step forward, startled to see the difference in their height, but far from knocked off her roll. "I'm not going to live in some bubble my whole life! And you shouldn't either! Let's go get Svet and Kass and Sin, then, they should come too! The five of us together, just us, the way it should be. We don't need anyone else, Sigmarr. We're strongest together!" Her tone was brimming with fire and passion. The wildling princess would not be swayed from this course, and it had been cemented in her mind that civilized life was not the path they were meant to take. There was a wildness within them all, even in Svetlana and Kassander! They were all meant for greater things, and none of that could be accomplished within the confines of Ebony, or Olympus for that matter! What couldn't Sigmarr understand that? |
