His lips were rough against hers, but they drew her in as if she were hypnotized. In a way she was: blinded by love, unable to see the darkness that cloaked them both in its negativity. They were happy in their twisted little way, with limbs and pools of blood scattered around them.
The two had broken off from Datura as they once promised each other, living their lives as a dangerous duo that continued their killing spree for nothing less than entertainment and gold. Vera had Sulicena wrapped around his finger, enticing her with every kill and reward--and she’d fallen for his spell. Out of the satisfying feeling of blood spilling, and watching people struggle.
And the voices that haunted her every night no longer haunted the Sylvari. They told her to continue, encouraged her to do something a little more different than the last until the craft of cutting someone open was perfected.
Her favourites were the squealing Dreamers that were freshly awakened from their pods, weak from the Mother Tree’s damages. Seeing their wondrous, colourful eyes lose the light as quick as night came in the bitter winters.
“Excellent work with the little one, dearheart,” spoke Vera with a grin spreading across his bark lips. He stepped over to the child, no more than three years of age, who laid there with tears streamed down his cheeks and blood leaking out of his mouth. Not a physical mark laid on him, unless someone looked at the ribs poking out of his back.
Sulicena latched onto Vera’s blood-covered arm and gave him a similar, twisted grin. “Competing for your job now.” She stepped towards the back door of the old home while Vera laughed and nodded wordlessly. They had unfinished business here: evidence remained, and that was no good for anyone.
Dark grey and black smoke soared into the high skies of Kessex Hills while the cottage just outside of Garenhoff burned brightly in the night. It was a beautiful sight, and one a second deep kiss could be shared in front of.
The cries for help and Seraph soon came, but the Courtier couple had long escaped into the nearby bushes.
