“You know… the only people who’ve seen these creature this closer are me, the Queen and her lover and now you.” Andion said.
“You know… the only people who’ve seen these creature this closer are me, the Queen and her lover and now you.” Andion said.
"Really?" Cally asked, this time not daring to look away.
“Really. You’re the fourth person to see them.” Andion said, looking at Cally.
"Does that mean we're making history or something?" Cally asked breathlessly.
Andion shrugged and out her hands in her pockets, “I guess so. You’re the first human to see them so yes, history in the making.”
"Woah." Cally looked awestruck. "Why haven't more witches seen them? They're majestic!"
“They don’t know they exist or are to busy with work that they cannot come out here.” She explained.
"How did you hear about them?" Cally asked.
“I sunk into one of the Queens meetings,” She said with a sly grin.
"You rebel!" Cally said, grinning back. "How did they not notice?"
Andion rocked back in her heels, “When good ‘Ol Queenie is focused on something, lots of things get past her. Hiding up into the banisters was a good start and Ryker was with her so Queenie was focused on her.”
"Aren't you supposed to, I don't know, respect your queen?" Cally asked, her smile never wavering.
Andion shrugged, “Eh, I do. Most of the time anyway.”
Cally looked at her curiously. "Is she a good queen?"
Again, Andion shrugged, “Not the worst I’ve encountered.”
(Sorry! I forgot to respond and this got lost)
"Have you actually met her?" Cally asked, her full attention on Andion now. "Like, outside of whatever stuff she does for the public?"
(Don’t worry about it)
Andion rubbed the back of her neck, “You could say that. Our history is… complicated.” She admitted.
Cally tilted her head to the side. "Complicated?"
“You could say I’ve have had an intimate relationship with her at one point.” She said, looking out over the mountains.
"Like, a relationship relationship?" Cally said, trying to make sense.
“I mean, kind of. Like I said, it’s complicated history. Long story short, we were together for a while, then I decided being consort to the queen wasn’t for me and ended things. She became quite upset but didn’t do anything drastic as she still loves me. She found her new lover but everyone knows it’s not the same.” She said.
“You’re really involved in the witch community, aren’t you?” Cally said, a bit surprised.
Andion let out a nervous laugh, “I guess I am. Well, I was.”
"Is that why you don't want to leave? Because you don't want to leave the queen?" Cally asked. She was disappointed at the idea, though she didn't really know why.
“No, no that’s not it. I truly don’t love her anymore so wipe that look off your face, you’ve still got a chance.” Andion smirked and nudged the other with her elbow.
