Secrets

She knew that she was pushing her luck with Sibelle, but she felt so strongly about all of this. The larger dame had no idea what love could do to her. Hell, at one point she was ready to fight this beast! And now? Now she was playfully bumping into him and laughing. No, no. It was all wrong, all wrong! It was taking her sweet Sibelle away, and she didn't want to see her get hurt again. So she tried to push her way between them, only to have Sibelle reel around to flash her teeth at Ekko. She bumped right into her flank, a yelp passed between her jaws as she cowered, her form hugging the ground as her body trembled. "Don't hurt me." She pleaded softly, unable to stop the words as they slipped past her lips with a whine. This was all Crucifix's fault, never before had Sibelle growled at her, not until he came along.

The russet queen commanded her to go, to leave. Pale blue eyes flashed up to meet her gaze for a brief moment, wide with fear and brimming with unshod tears. She wanted her to go away? To leave? She didn't understand... she didn't get it. Ekko let out a soft cry, not able to move until Sibelle turned and locked her out of her gaze's hold. Then the tiny form turned and she ran, heart pounding fast in her chest. Tears finally shed, pouring down her rusty red face. Her legs stretched and reached, trying to get as far away as she could. It was over, it was all over now. Sibelle had cast her away from her side for the first time ever, even showed her teeth for the first time ever. Crucifix was winning... Ekko knew that it would not be long until she was no longer needed.
