"Oh My Lady, she is lovely. A being all unto her own...but nowhere near as lovely as you.... more of a pale shadow of your perfection. Oh, is that what caused the hound God to shatter the night with his keening? The loss of his one worshiper? Petty Gods and their need of worship."
"Isn't she?" I preen, "My Djinn is quite the artist when he wants to be. As for the hound gods woe, I hardly care about what the reason was," I smile. "But it serves him right, they have all always been such needy little things," I giggle, leaning against him and smiling up at him as he talks more of the child. "I got a sense of the child, yes. She certainly has a sense for me, or rather, whats wrong with Doctor Constantine. I am merely surprised you let her live after disappointing you so."
"So few are rarely ever anything but a disappointment these days and I had considered snuffing out her little flame. But there is always time for that, and it might be interesting to see what use she could be first. A Fae child is rare to find, even if it is one tainted with human blood."
Marbas tilts his head looking at me for a moment as if he's confused. I wonder what the cause of his confusion is. Perhaps its the child or the fact that she lives, though were I to kill every disappointment in this wretched town, there would be nothing left. "May I ask a question?" he finally says.
"Anything you want," I smile, leaning into him more and nipping at his lips. Even with his flaws, I do so miss my lion sometimes.
