Stone Circle Your Mother Should Know

Vespera felt that she had held her word in what she believed, she wasn't going to let her mind be swayed so quickly. The Easthollow girl wanted to make it clear that she wasn't going to let this man walk all over her and order her about just because he has the title of Patriarch. That's all he is, a title, she growled to herself, with her violet orbs still on the listening Matriarch, she would hope that the woman would see it her way.

But that wasn't the case at all, in fact, it was the opposite.

Valette retorted at her by stating if Vespera thought about if killing herself would affect Valette, or did she even think of it at all. The female began being flooded with guilt, she thought that she had explained it to her but she really did think about her actions. "I just thought it would be best, I didn't want to cause any more trouble," the female started to lose confidence in her words with her ears tilting back a bit like a slight sign of shame. But Valette was far from done, she refuted every point she made and made it clear that she wouldn't let any of this nonsense go on for any longer and in fact scolded her for thinking down about herself. Vespera's eyes grew a bit wide and her eyebrows tilted up a bit, every word stung like she was getting disciplined by her own mother.

The young girl felt her mouth glued shut as Valette continued, she was trying to find an opening to her statement but every chance she got Valette would continue. The Matriarch made it clear that Greyback leads with her and it will stay that way for a long time, and Vespera felt her heart race and her face get hot with anger. She so desperately wanted to retort but she realized she would only dig herself deeper so she stayed silent. Valette was ripping into her that her perception of herself was wrong and her attitude about it has affected her viewpoints of others, she might have misjudged Greyback. This statement made the girl scowl, so far the man had done nothing to change her view on him, but she already explained that so she once again remained silent.

Valette had ordered her to talk with Greyback or else the conflict would never be solved, the girl darted her eyes away and looked at the ground with a sour look on her face. But even she knew that this couldn't be avoided forever, she folded her ears back for she was contemplating if she wanted to talk with him or not. Valette said that she would monitor the conversation, this did spike her interest because Greyback seemed to know his place when Val was around. Vespera lifted her head to meet Valette's gaze, her face was mournful and this only soften Vespera's heart, she couldn't let Valette down like she did so many times. The girl closed her eyes and sighs, she then reopened her eyes and held her head up with a more stern expression, "fine, I will try to talk with him, but if he tries anything, I will not let myself be pinned down by him a second time." Her tone was firm and clear, the girl will let it be known that she will rebel if something goes South and she will act upon her instincts to preserve herself and not let the man make her a victim again.

And she won't hold back this time.
