A court of love and secrets

2

"I don't know what to say. I'm so mad, with both of you." Lilith said crossing her arms. The meeting had finished half an hour ago, and now, safely back in the Spring Court. She can finally let her anger out. "Looking for Savanna is one thing! But working with her!"

The dragon was spinning on a chest with small wooden wills. She spun in a circle eating some marshmallow. At the start of summer the female had returned to Scalswind with Nicole after seeing Verna's crowning. But now the female was back, and seeming to want to eat every sweet thing she could get her hands on. Her light violet eyes were on Rhys as she said, "if Lilith does not want to work with Theodora, I won't mind. She's pretty." The dragon giggled. Actually giggled. It shocked Verna so much that Lilith saw her blink in shock. A small blush went to Freya Evernote's cheeks.

"I don't mind looking for Savanna. . .if she is is in trouble. . ." Lilith sighed. "Looking for Savanna is one thing, but working with. . T-Theodora!"

"You used to like Theodora." Feyre said slowly.

"Key worked there mother: used to." Lilith hissed.

The three Artemis where sat together in the downstairs living room of the Tansmia manor. Every now and then Verna would pop her head in and tell them to give her five minutes. Rhys smiled and told her to take her time. The dragon only moved around on her seat.

"I'm so conniving Rita to get me one of these." She said smiling at Rhys. "Saying that, Rita would just use it and never let me have a go."

"Some part of me tells me that Margarita would be two scared of it." Rhys laughed. "Or that she would get on it and love it so much she would not want to leave."

Lilith laughed a little, she had never meant the female they called Margarita. However, she felt that she had. From the amount her father walked about her, one would think he used to have a small crush on her back in the day. Another minute went by without Verna in the room. Verna had come back from the meeting with them, however she had run straight to the bathroom and then she promised to make Circe calm before they had their own personal meeting. And now, it seems that the High Priestess would not be calm. Even downstairs, they could hear the wind moving around the furniture. Then, five minutes later, the door opened and Nyx walked in. Feyre ran to her son and hugged him, kissing his cheek. Rhys had pulled his son into a tight hug. Lilith only nodded her head. Freya Evermore only nodded her head as well, as she spun around whispering about how she was going to steal the seat from Verna.

"It seems I get no love from you, little Lily." Nyx said laughing as he kissed her forehead. "And take your feet of the sofa before Verna cuts them off." He then looked at the dragon. "And I would not, Verna loves that. I fear my mate might put your flame to shame."

"Verna can try." Freya whispered.

"I don't have my shoes on." Lilith hissed. "And have you heard what our parents have done."

"I have." He said slowly. "Verna told me. And I know you don't like Theo but think of Savanna. Alone, scared, she might even be dead."

"I can live with that." Lilith said looking at her brother. "Besides, you have Verna to fuc—"

"Lilith." Verna warned from the doorway. "Watch your language. The babe can hear everything from the womb, and I don't want it's first word to be a swear word."

The dragon blinked at the large stomach, "you got fat." She whispered.

"True." Verna said, she put out her hand for the dragon to hold. She did so with a smile. "However, I will beat you black and blue, if you take my favourite seat."

"Oh fuck off." The dragon laughed.

"I don't want it's first word to be a swear word." Verna hissed.
