Lion Head Mesa yuki 雪女 onna

do you have somewhere to be? someone to please? satsu shot angrily towards the vermin thing; she knew better than to let her anger show around jawahir, but in the heat of the moment she could not help herself.
she was a girl no longer. now as queen, she need not be scrutinized by the courtesan. this was her kingdom, not some backwater hovel, and not some crux in the road where strangers passed.
satsu knew also, that if she ordered anything of jawahir, it was not likely to be followed.
the creature was enjoying itself too much to relent. testing her, studying her. satsu wished she could be free somehow of jawahir and loathed that this was the pharaoh's chosen favorite.
