Four years later Ezelle is twenty-two and she is in the city bargaining for an item she wants when she spots Orion. She hides in the shadows until she is behind him and she silently places a dagger to his throat.
"Listen here you little piece of shit. I don't like your attitude and I certainly don't like the perfect little world you have going on inside your head. You stay away from me and never see me again, because if I never see your face again it will be too soon!" Ezelle says pressing it harder against Orion's neck.
"I suggest you keep that dagger away from me. There are people who will collect your skin if I tell them to. Sigma sadly is not one of them. He deserted the academy to go live on some ship on the dock. If you see him tell him I want him to drop dead in a hole." And with that, Orion walked away from her without any emotion on his face whatsoever. She was stunned by his words and let the dagger slip out of her hand. She knew what she had to do. She was about to go find Sigma.
She went at dawn through the fields, snuck past the academy, and made it to the docks by the afternoon. She knew it was Sigma's when she saw a huge old pirate ship. She knew that he always liked to pretend he was a pirate and now he was living his dream. What she did not imagine she would've seen was a girl looking over the side down at her. She had hair the color of gold and it was long like her own but very well taken care of. The girl from what Ezelle could tell had a red, silk dress on. She also could tell the girl had dainty features and very fine porcelain skin. She was more beautiful than anybody she had ever seen before. There was another detail that stuck out about the girl, her bosoms were quite large and Ezelle wondered if they were natural.
"Hiya!" The girl shouted down to her.
She was friendly enough, but most whores were, considering they always wanted to make a dime or two. The girl pulled a lever and opened the ship's door for Ezelle and led her to a well decorated room with a tea set in the middle on a table.
"You must be Sigma's cousin from the South plains. He's told me things about you but never much. I recognized you by those chocolate brown curls."
The girl took a lock of her hair and raised it to her lips. This made Ezelle blush deeply and flinch away.
"What is your name? A-Are you Sigma's prostitute?"
The girl dropped her hair and looked appalled.
"No! Why I am Mellatrix Alpha or Mella. Sigma's wife!"
Ezelle felt ashamed and apologized even though Mella waved it away and said she had nothing to apologize for. Ezelle asked about Sigma and wanted to know where he was to speak with him. Mella shrugged and said he was busy doing something and that he regularly left her alone on the ship to entertain herself while he worked. They sat there chatting with each other until Ezelle knew it was time to take her leave. She excused herself and left, curtsying to Mella while heading for the exit. Ezelle had asked Mella about Orion and West and she replied she had not known Sigma had brothers. This was peculiar to Ezelle and she thought about it all the way home.
When she next saw Orion, West, and Sigma, they were all in the town enjoying a meal. All of them were laughing and Sigma and Orion were both holding Mella's hand. Everything about Orion was completely different like he had changed personalities completely. She knew it had something to do with the girl Mellatrix. Her personality just made you feel warm inside. Hell, even being in the same room as her made you happy. Mella gave off a nice aura. She was pleased with the new results and noticed something else about Mella that was strange. She saw that she had a belly, but not a fat one, a pregnant one. Ezelle's mouth flew open as she ran to tell her partner what she had seen.
