She seemed genuinely interested in what he was saying... or rather stuttering. He cursed the shyness that tangled his tongue even as he hung on her every syllable. She gave her name, and he mouthed it silently, liking the way it felt. It was a beautiful name for an unimaginably beautiful woman. Her mention of Raisa's ruling Ebony, of her having once been a member, brought a faint spark of recognition and he blinked. This angel had been disguised among the wolves of Ebony, yet how had he missed her? Oh yes... his heart plummeted. She'd been there with her husband. The angel, already on a pedestal, soared hopelessly out of his reach, and he could have cried in that moment. "Raisa... my mother, she... she passed the pack on some time ago." Regret seeped into his tone, his youthful heart crushed to pieces as he pictured her curled around... the man whose name completely escaped Kass. "I... I rule Ebony now." He was nearly doleful as he spoke the words that he'd thought earlier might have impressed her, and he hesitated before continuing with infinite sadness, "How is your... family?" |
