~Evermore~ (Twilight x Yor)

Chapter-17 ~ Steam (SMUT/NSFW)

"Donovan Desmond...?" , she shivered.

The gardener kept his shovel on the ground and looked into her eyes,"Yes, that is right."

"I may not know a lot about politics but... how is Donovan Desmond on the war cabinet? He is in the opposition and doesn't hold any position in the government.", she replied in confusion.

"Desmond and his party have urged the existing majority to start planning a war. This has happened due to the recent incident when your husband was framed. Under special circumstances he has not only been given the chance to be a part of the war cabinet meeting, but to chair it."

She was angry and grasped at her stilettos more firmly, "War.... why must everything always result in this... I am tired of serving this nation and its leaders. I thought things were flowing in a positive direction ever since we recovered from the previous war. But... all what these men seek is war."

"We are in no position to question it. Your job will be to serve as a guard for the meeting and ensure that there would be no disruptions.", he replied.

Yor turned her back towards him and shed a tear, "I won't be partaking in any of this. It is too much. "

Without another word, she left within milliseconds.

——————————————

The Forger family, a perfect lively and joyful household. No matter how things were going in the outside world, one would always find these three the ideal perfect family. But today was not one of those days...

Anya heard the rattling key sounds outside the door and got excited. "Yes!! Mama is finally gone from her mission."
Her excitement was unusual, even for Anya. This was because, in her absence all she could hear for the past few hours were Loid's scary and worrying thoughts, so seeing Yor was a huge relief for her.

Yor wasn't one of those women who can't control their emotions. She knew how to not let others down due to what she was feeling, so she was prepared for it.

"Mama! Anya missed you!"

As soon as she entered, Anya could hear her thoughts. Even though she was smiling on the outside, all the thoughts in her brain were violent, angry, sad, despotic and much more that a young child would be utterly afraid of.

"How are you, Anya-san?", she gave her a tight hug after keeping down her bag of killing tools on the kitchen counter.

"Anya was waiting for you. Papa is really worried that you are late from work today.", she replied.

Yor was confused, "Uh... speaking of him.. where is he?"

"He is taking a shower and told Anya to not disturb him.", Anya replied.

"Well.. Anya-San, have you completed your homework and had your dinner?", she asked her.

Anya jumped, "YES!! Anya is a good girl and has completed all of her homework today."

Yor smiled at her, "Certainly, you are a good girl. My good girl. Now, it's time for you to go to bed, Anya-san."

Anya wiped her eyes, "Yes... Anya is feeling a bit tired."

Yor tucked her into bed and stood near the bathroom door. She stood there for 15 minutes, waiting for her husband to come out.... she still needed to wash off the blood off her dress. She couldn't even sit without causing blood stains all over the place.

Since he wasn't gonna come out anytime soon, she entered the bathroom. It was steamy and cloudy everywhere... almost impossible to even open her eyes. It almost seemed like she was in a sauna.
