Emberwood and it hurts my soul

bhediya chose to remain oblivious to the hidden meaning of pygmalion's words. they hadn't discussed plans for the coming spring and to an extent, she preferred it that way. i did, she sighed with a smile. aging eyes turned back to face her mate.

you were one of the first things we talked about, actually. in truth, pygmalion was only mentioned in passing. it'd been blurted out in a moment of confusion, unsureity... had bhediya known more self-control, she wouldn't have mentioned him at all.

she laid down and pressed herself into his frame. distant memories of grayday drifted through her mind. i missed so much of her growing up. and now, bhediya huffed in disbelief, she's an adult. and twice my size, too.
