Blood Rose-11
He was running. He knew that in reality he was not, but felt he feet churn faster beneath him despite it. His breath came in ragged painful gasps as he rocketed across the terrain. Was he running from someone? No. He was running to someone. Off in the...
Blood Rose-10
She watched him stalk away, tension clear in every line of his body and let her ears fall flat to the sides. She couldn't remember feeling hatred towards anyone. Ever. Dislike, absolutely. But living with nuns taught her that love fixes all problems...
Blood Rose-9
Off in their separate worlds, they sat awkwardly in camp, both lost on thought. Embarrassed and ashamed of herself she flattened her ears to her skull and pressed her paws more firmly into the space between her crossed legs. She hadn't seen Lila in a...
Blood Rose-8
He had been hoping for Lila and almost frowned when the scold came out to warn him against things he would never do. He never would have made Cassie cry. At least, not intentionally. He did his best never to make children cry. He'd killed them the...
Blood Rose-7
She curled up one night to sleep, but left one eye uncovered. She had never watched him ready for sleep and she felt compelled to do so now. They knew little of each other, despite their travel time. He seemed aware of her shifts from Cassie to Micha,...
Blood Rose-6
He wrapped his arms wrapped around her knees, squeezing her tight as she let her more feral side play out on him. Her leap of faith was rewarded, as he dropped the dagger to the ground to fall backwards and bowl them over. He felt her needle sharp...
Blood Rose-5
She blinked at him blandly before asking, "Must you curse? It's so...unrefined." She pulled off her pack and rotated her shoulders a bit. It had been a long while since she'd had to carry it for any extended amount of time. It wasn't intended to sound...
Blood Rose-1
The kingdom of Tufan had been crushed by a triple alliance, burning all to the ground and taking no prisoners. Homes were burned to their foundations and families fled to underground shelters where most starved to death. Mack was a frighteningly...
Blood Rose-4
"I need no food as of now. The Sisters feed me well." she added and looked off into the distance. She tried to remember her family. She had come to mother as Fury. She had left her family as Cassandra-Cassie. She couldn't remember where she came from...
Blood Rose-3
The man was almost naked compared to the heavy infantry that began marching slowly into the town. Axes, tower shields, and dark iron plate armor, so thick it was surprising they could walk, yet they did so with ease. He wore a familiar getup, strips of...
Blood Rose-2
"I'm afraid this is going to be excruciatingly painful." she said with mock sadness. She wasn't sadistic by nature but sometimes she wished initiating the process was a bit easier. She placed her paws on his chest and pressed around, taking a quick...
Opposing Forces-3
Despite the seeming mutual dislike the two displayed in the office, they had managed to settle into a kind of reluctant partnership. One where he picked on her until she snapped at him or bodily removed him from her space. They became the secretaries...
