Do you enjoy spying on me?

The only reason I regret anything, is her.
The way she stared at me, betrayal in her eyes made my heart hurt.
The way she didn't hesitate to try and fight me, made me feel so broken.
And the things she wished upon me didn't feel as bad as the hurt she was feeling.
I had hurt her.
In more ways than one.
I had betrayed her.
And I had cut her with my own sword.
Then I had to suffer as she stood above me, her blood dripping onto me.
My fangs had grown and I had to clench my jaw to stop my from standing and biting her.
She looked so beautiful when she fought, her hair swaying, eyes filled with determination.
But sadly she was fighting me.
Because I hurt her.
And her being hurt was the only regret I've ever had in my life.

We had just got done telling Delhari about Acradia's betrayal, when I wanted to escape the crowded room.
Slipping past the palace doors, I walk out into the cool day air, heading towards Sela.
Shes tied to a post, grazing at the grass around her.
I slump down next to her and she huffs out through her nose, chewing the grass as she nuzzles my face.
" Is it bad I'm still thinking about it? " Of course she doesn't answer, but it feels good to talk to at least her. " I just can't believe he did that to us. " I whisper.
She stomps her back foot, ears twitching. "Before he betrayed us, when I was around him, my stomach would tighten and my heart would speed up. Even as I fought him, it still did. He looked at me like Alastor never has. "
Her tail swishes in the air, swatting flies.
" I've known Osiris my whole life, and I guess he's always made me nervous, but lately it's just been.. " I blow out a breath, "A lot more. "
She continues to graze, though the ear closest to me is facing me, letting me know she is actually listen.
She may not be able to respond, but at least she listens.
