Summary: Allowing those emotions to run wild, so hard to do.
Note: Betrayal of the Clan series
There was no doubt she was underestimated, despite the fact that she was the Lady.
She was strong, a true Lady of the West.
There was no captivity in her emotions, she allowed herself to feel…whether she showed it was the question.
Succumbing to the beauty of emotions, of fury, of the unfathomable depth of enragement that could bestow itself upon her.
“My Lady?”
Dull golden eyes narrowed, sparking with life and an amused smirk twisted her lovely lips. She could smell him from there. “Yes?” an eyebrow curved.
“The General has returned.”
Again, the lack of respect was noted. He was their Lord…as her husband.
Despite the little, precious human…
He was hers.
There was no hesitation in him to pass through the doors, his eyes resting upon her.
Smile…
Smile at him...
She resisted the urge, brushing it aside easily, merely a pest.
“My Lord?”
Stripping away the layers of her emotions, leaving it until the minimum.
Stripped…
Taken away from her…
Outcast…
But she could not manage one smile.
Even as the Lady stared down at her husband’s surprising blank expression, her necklace clutched safely in his hands, he could not even manage to smirk at her.
Nothing…
Bare...
Empty...
“I’ve come to talk with you about the Meido-Seki,” and that single time, she allowed all the thoughts to overflow her emotions, actions.
Anger…
Coiled thickly around her throat, curling into her fingers.
Fury…
Yet…
He was blank…
That was her fault.
So she allowed herself to strip.
