Drowning in a Pool of Regret

She would stand, careful but attentive. It had been a while since her brother had asked her to do anything and for some reason she missed it, she missed being needed by him. So as his words slipped out her gaze hardened, first looking to Secret as if questioning her what she was thinking. Leaving Tortuga was where she went wrong firstly but in her current state it was obvious she was severely malnourished. Had she done this on purpose? Vi would never ask, it wasn't the time nor the place and neither were that close... So she remained silent as Kylar spoke his simple commands, telling her to hunt and care for this woman and telling Secret to get better. Bitch. How dare she take all of her brothers attention! The urge to lift her hackles and rip the woman's throat out ran strong in her but outwardly she remained lax, standing easy and expression impassive. But her brother stood, walking towards her and her tail licked easily at her heels. But whatever true emotion had been stirred by the moment was stilled, she felt something cold grip her heart at her brothers next words. Would she ever see him again? Would he leave her with this woman and then go off and get hismelf killed? She didn't know but she didn't ask, expression remaining impassive even as panic slowly rose within her breast. She felt her heart flutter oddly even as she forced a smile and met his gaze. "You've grown up so much. Go... I'll keep her safe. I swear it..." she said softly before reaching out to press herself into his chest. An oddly tender motion as she held herself there for a long moment before backing up. She wouldn't cry...

Slipping around him she walked slowly towards the black female, short breaths the only hint that she was anything but easy going. She felt as if her heart might burst in her chest, she felt like her stomach had dropped and that she could no longer breath. Though they rarely hung out, spoke or did normal sibling things just the fact that he was around was comfort enough. "I know this isn't ideal... But bunnies? Or are you in the mood for something else?" she asked, trying to keep her voice as even as possible. Had Secret told him to do this or had she really effected him that much? What was she to him anyways? It was his children he should be thinking about after all... Not the bitch who had birthed them. It was because of her that she may never see her brother again and she couldn't even beg him to stay. There would be none of that in front of Secret.
