“Her face was sad and lovely with bright things in it, bright eyes and a bright passionate mouth, but there was an excitement in her voice that men who had cared for her found difficult to forget”
x She was constantly and perpetually lost in this world without her golden prince, her eyes ever-searching for his skin the colour of spun sunlight, his eyes the colour of a hundred emeralds, his vast shoulders that reminded her of mountains. She always came up empty, her chest constricting painfully at the realisation that she would always do so. Life was simple and pleasant enough under the careful eye of Nexus, a charming and handsome bronze man - a man that once, perhaps, she would have responded to with a grin and a bashful batter of her silver lashes... but it had been so long, too long, since she'd been alone. She couldn't return his advances, nor even pretend that she had any feeling but emptiness. Ulrich had been her world - the father of her children, her golden savior... even when it had been he that needed saving. And so she had crept, timidly, through the Pumpkin Patch, knowing within herself that the rumours were false. She wouldn't see Ulrich here. He was gone. Kezz
