There was so much going on in this woman's mind that Mary felt terrible. Immediately she wrapped her arms around the frail looking woman and hugged her, hard. "Darius is fine. He's happy, and safe, and watching over all of us, including you."
Mary let go and smiled at the woman. "Now, again, my name is Mary, how about we find ourselves a more comfortable place to talk about what just happened. How did you know Darius?"
Mary sat down in a plush chair in the sitting area just past the foyer. She patted a chair across from her. "I won't bite, I'm only human, but I've got great ears."

Brinn looked to the woman who wrapped her arm around her guiding her to a chair and she would nod taking a small breath " Sorry, Mary and thank you" she would move till she found a seat and she rubbed her face with care not to mess up her make up, her mind going over the questions that was asked of her.
" I understand he is in the fade, and likely happy but there are things he should have known before going to the fade...but I'm I " she stopped talking again and stayed quiet for a few minutes before starting up again " we were raised together after my parents were murdered. His mahmen and mine we good friends so she took me in raising her like her own, we were only a few months apart, we had known each other since birth pretty much but from five on we were always together until life got in the way" she would roll her shoulders her back and body feeling tense.
" We were never like brother and sister but we were as close to it as friends could get, and we tried to be more but decided we were better friends...well he decided and I agreed once I matured enough to really look at it" she took a deep breath her eyes watering and she didn't want to start crying
" then we had falling out, but reunited only for me to have to be sent away by Thorment and the one with a tattoo with a new identity to avoid being hurt or killed by my now deceased hellren... which is why I am here I could finally come out of hiding...I guess that is how I didn't hear that he died... but he had kids right? he always deserved to have kids... at least I don't have to fully regret him never getting to know his children... or my child with him.. " she trailed off looking at her hands on the table.

Mary smiled. "Of course! He had a daughter. Her name is Beth, she is our Queen."
Mary sighed and understood where she was coming from. "You should have been told. I don't know why Tohr didn't reach out to you. Although, he had a rough time a year or so ago. His shellan was murdered by some lessers. His unborn as well. He disappeared for a while and we just got him back not too long ago. So I can see that getting in the way. It wasn't long after Darius' passing."
Mary handed Brinn a tissue. "You're handling this really well you know."

Brinn looked to Mary and she laughed " I am more concerned about my son.... He is going to be coming once he is done his last shift with the old sect we belonged to....and then he is coming here to meet his father... he has always talked about meeting him, would he be proud of him and now he will never get that chance because I made poor choices when I was young and stupid" she would sigh putting her head down on the table her stomach turning a little at the thought of what it was going to be like to have to tell her son. She looked up to Mary thinking about it "At least he has family he can reach to I guess, not a complete loss if he has a sister well half sister" she would offer a soft smile trying to look at the positive side as she reached into her pocket pulling out a small card holder and she showed the picture on the front of it, it was not the newest picture but it was one of her favorites from just after he celebrated his 90th birthday. .jpg) Brinn would smile a little thinking of her son " I went through my needing while traveling, and medicine doesn't always work, not that we had any and after nearly 10 hours in pain Darius asked permission to help me...said I went through too much pain already for a gentlemen to sit there and watch me go through the pain any longer... he used protection but I guess it was not enough because well I have a son who is a lot like his father at that age... he will be turning 100 this year" she beamed a bit with pride and it helped cut through the tired fallen apart appearance. |

Mary was astonished. Beth had a brother. John had a brother. This thing was getting even more weird. She knew Wrath would want to know about this as soon as possible, being King. She was going too have to set something up with him and Brinn, but first, she needed to meet Beth. That would be the closest person to Darius, even though Beth never did meet him herself.
"I'd like you to meet Beth. She's not around now, but if you don't mind sticking around I'll make sure you and your son get rooms here. I know we have tons. I'll talk to Beth as soon as I find out where she is. I know she's going to want to talk to you. She never got to meet Darius before he died. But I've heard she looks a lot like him. Do you think you'd be up to staying here? I know being here is a lot to ask for with the memories."

Brinn paused when she started talking about meeting people, moving in and she found that her heart started to race. Her mind trying to keep up with the thought of moving into Darius's home surrounded by all these people when he wasn't even alive anymore.... That was just...did she go back home... call her son and tell him to stay ... no, he had family here, he should meet them and then decide what he wished to do. With a sharp breath Brinn glanced around the room, imagining him walking around this large place never knowing where she was... that he had another child... she would have come sooner if she had know but she couldn't focus on that right this second or she was going to slip into shock and she would nod to Mary a little without words trying to think of what she should say.
" I think I will go back to the place I rented, I think I will need to take a night to think and to grieve in private.... not surrounded by what was his, what was his life that I missed out on because I made the choice not to listen to him all those years ago" she gave a half hearted laugh.
" word of advice, when your closest friend tells you to slow and think about it... that something isn't right about anything listen to them heed their advice... because even if their wrong at least you do not learn on years" she would offer a small smile that faded as quick as it came, her eyes looking up to the female as she shook her head trying to clear her head of her sadness.
" I thank you for your kindness, and it is a shame you are mated already... I am always telling my son Vhalor that he should find a nice female like yourself to settle down with"

Mary laughed softly. "I'm just a human. I'm sure your son will find a cute vampire out there that is perfect from him."
Mary leaned back in her chair, relaxing a little, even though the conversation was almost over. "This place is always welcome to you, you know. I'll have to hunt Beth down and make sure since she owns the house now, but she's so sweet, I really don't think she'd mind. Also, just keep telling yourself even if you were here, there would have been nothing you could have done to stop it. He didn't die here, and he didn't die out in the field. He was taken too soon by the enemy, and the Scribe Virgin has to know that."

Brinn looked to Mary and smirked " There is nothing wrong with being human, they value their time and belongs often much better than us vampires ever do... I suspect it's the double edge sword of knowing your time is potentially unlimited. Besides happiness is not bought with years it's in the connection, you can live 100's of years with a poor connection and never be happy, but a single moment, or memory with a strong connection can you bring 100's of years of happiness" she ran her fingers through her hair making sure it was how she wanted it more for something to do with her hands as she chuckled " and I have no doubt he will find a female... I raised him to be a male of worth and he tells me he is happy being single and having quick flings but a mahmen almost always will be ready for their children to settle before them" She stood brushing her fingers along the table, her eyes following them before meeting Mary's " I think I will take my leave for the evening to sort my thoughts, but you have been a big help and I hope your male is alright I had not wished to upset anyone" she paused glancing around like she was trying to think if she was forgetting anything. " Oh " she would rummage through her card holder pulling out a business style card " this is my cell phone number, so that anyone who needs to can get ahold of me...perhaps I will return tomorrow to see about meeting the others and finding out more about my friends live and passing." Brinn bowed her head taking a small breath to help steady herself, being too emotional while dematerializing got you in trouble if you could do it at all ... and she was not in the mood for trouble today! " Thank you again" she would nod and dematerialize back to her bachelor suite. * Brinn Leaves Billiard Room* |

Mary nodded and took the business card and slipped it into her back pocket. She watched as Brinn dematerialized right in front of her. Was she ever going to get used to that? It sure would be convenient if she could do it too. Mary just smirked and turned on her heels to make her way up to her bedroom suite where she knew Rhage was waiting for her. Hopefully he was still in the tub. She could go for some cuddle time in hot water. *** Mary leaves Billiard Room ***
*** Bonus *** Mary made her way up the stairs and into their room, and low and behold there was her magnificent man, waiting for her in the giant tub. The water must have been very hot, because she could see steam coming off of the top, and the warming jets made sure to keep the water at a steady temperature. Mary smiled and slowly slipped out of her clothes. Rhage eased back and helped Mary into the tub in front of him. She leaned back against his naked chest and sighed as she felt Rhage wrap his strong arms around her body. "This feels nice." Rhage smiled and nuzzled Mary's neck. "You feel nice." |
