even a god-king can bleed

The tension was palpable. The russet man continued his verbal assault and suddenly it all made sense. His father was one that had been killed so long ago. Now that explained his hard feelings. Her only distraction from the impending battle was Hypnos soft voice. Her gaze would immediately drop to him as he willingly pressed himself against her belly. "Hush, its okay." She would smiley gently, placing a light kiss on his head before lifting her gaze once more. The King had now shifted his attention to them, more specifically, Apollo. She could see it, it was written all over his face that he was demanding a decision from the pale man. Unease radiated from her secret lover, his pinkish ears falling back against his skull, a low whine leaving his cherry lips. She was about to lean into comfort when his words stilled her. All function stopped, she sat still as a statue, unable to move, all she could do was look at him with wide fathomless eyes. Forgotten was Charons babbling in an attempt to please the russet king. Forgotten was chaos that was unfolding around them. She would try to meet his gaze, if he would allow it, and indigo orbs would swell with rare, unspoken emotion. "I....I love you." It was a strange admission as it rolled foreignly off her tongue. Never had she made such a statement, even to her own family. A small smile would toy with her lips as peered up at the ivory man. Never could she had predicted such a stranger turn of events. Sure she had cared for him on a deeper level, sure she thought about spending the rest of her life with him, but never had she imagined falling in love with him. From the very beginning he had been a welcomed tool to use in her plans, but it had all shifted. The countless nights, the hours of carnal pleasure, it had all added up to one strange feeling that swelled in her heart and suffocated with her. Love. The ebony queen did indeed love him. "Speech" |
