"I will speak too Sabrina and Hildy about our plan when I see them at the academy" Zelda said before bending over too place a kiss on Mary's temple.
"and then I will make a quick stop home and get Ambrose on board. I should be back in time for supper!" Zelda said with a small smile.
A smile that was quickly replaced by a frown as she looked at her conflicted lover. Mary had been quiet and distant all morning, and quite frankly, Zelda was growing impatient with the brunette.
"What's going on honey?" Zelda asked softly, sitting down beside Mary on the couch.
Zelda laid her arm over Mary's shoulder and laid her forehead against Mary's cheek. "Are you going too tell me what's going on with you?" Zelda whispered.
Mary inhaled deeply, and melted into Zelda's embrace. Truth be told, Mary had been up all night running over every scenario that may unfold when they attempt too kill Lucifer. Her mind had made every scenario end badly, and it had made her quite upset.
"I just-" Mary started, unsure of how too proceed with telling how she was feeling.
"I don't want to lose you" Mary whispered shakily. Zelda furrowed her brow and then pulled away too look at Mary's face.
"Where has this all come from? I'm not going anywhere honey" Zelda cooed, gripping tightly onto Mary's hand.
"If Lucifer ki-" Mary started, but was cut off my Zelda.
"It won't happen Mary, you are causing unnecessary pain for yourself." Zelda paused for a moment, "And in case you have forgotten, our plan was formed too protect me" Zelda said with a small smirk.
Mary sighed and shook her head. She couldn't deny what Zelda was saying, the plan they had formulated had, by her doing, been formed around protecting Zelda. However, Mary couldn't help but worry about how many different ways the evening could go.
"I have too go, I don't want too be late" Zelda said before quickly pecking Mary's cheek. "Please don't worry, everything is going to go according too plan" Zelda said getting up from the couch.
Mary stood up with her and wrapped her arms around Zelda waist, causing the ginger too chuckle. "What is with you today, you're exceptionally more clingy than usual" Zelda said as the brunette tightened the grip on the gingers waist.
"I just love you is all" the brunette whispered, burying her face in the crook of Zelda's neck.
Zelda couldn't help but close her eyes in comfort as she heard her lover admit her true feelings. Being loved was something Zelda had longed for, for decades. Now, here, with Mary, was everything Zelda could have ever hoped for.
She would have enjoyed staying in her lovers embrace all day, but she needed to get too the academy.
Their plan was too proceed tomorrow night, and the newly appointed High Priestess had a lot to put in line before tomorrow evening. Zelda started too pull away from Mary, when she was met with resistance; Mary wouldn't let go.
"Come on honey-I have too go" Zelda cooed softly, trying again too pull away.
"Mary-" Zelda called out a little more sternly.
"YOU CANT GET HURT!" Mary erupted, causing Zelda too stumble back. The ginger froze as her brunette lover revealed her eyes flaring a bright amber and her elongated teeth.
Zelda raised her hands and slowly nodded her head, understanding that Mary's inner beast was raging, and the imprint was making her act out. Zelda now understood what Mary was going through, and what needed too happen. Her brunette had vowed too not kill another man, but Zelda knew her lover would eventually need too feed.
"Mary, honey, it's okay. I'm right here-no one can hurt me" Zelda spoke softly, not breaking eye contact.
Mary was in hunting mode; her chest was puffed out and heaving, eyes glowing, teeth extended, and fingers slightly elongated. The imprint stopped Mary from being able too harm Zelda, but seeing her in this form was definitely frightening for the ginger.
As if someone had flipped a switch, Mary shrunk back down too her normal self-her blue eyes returning-and looked at Zelda sorrowfully. She reached her hand out and her eyes glazed over "Zelds-I'm-I'm so sorry...I"
Zelda rushed into Mary's embrace and cupped the brunette's cheek in the palm of her hand.
"Don't apologize-I know you can't help it" Zelda said before pressing a kiss too Mary's opposite cheek.
"You will need too feed honey-please-for me" Zelda whispered, placing soft kisses all over Mary's face.
"Zelda-I promised you I wouldn't..." Mary sighed.
"I need you strong, and clear headed. There is no way you will be able too live-starving-and as Sabrina would say, hangry" Zelda said with a smirk, causing Mary to playfully roll her eyes.
Silence fell over the woman as their stared into each others eyes.
"Please don't ever be sorry...I know how hard this must be for you" Zelda breathed "but I can't have you starving yourself" Zelda spoke calmly, then kissed Mary's lips, "on that note...I must be off!"
Mary nodded as Zelda pressed a kiss too her cheek, and headed toward the door. Zelda turned on her heal and raised her pointer finger at Mary, "eat, and for satan's sake, please clean up after yourself!"
Mary chuckled and watched as Zelda made her way out of the cottage, closing the oak door behind her. The brunette sighed, the feelings of longing beginning too set in. Feelings that were quickly replaced by the devouring roar of hunger in the pit of her stomach. She was losing her grip, and the brunette needed too eat.
