I had never involved myself with another like I have begun to with Enderly. No male had even gotten close enough to be worthy of my affections, so I couldn't even begin to understand what Enderly had gone through with that other. The utter betrayal of desiring someone so much, and just as you are about to seal them in your grasp, and then rejected for another. Not even I was so cruel, all of my admirers had been given no hope from the start, meaning any hurt feelings they sustained through their continued pursuit of me were entirely their fault, and all too entertaining for me. But such was life, and Enderly needed to learn one of life's most important lessons: Forget them.
It is quite entertaining to watch his shadowy banner swing with mine, and I could almost hear the ticking of a metronome. He grins at me, like that of a cheshire cat, and allows a chuckle to fall from his lips, one that was quite pleasurable on the ears. "I would not want to be in Heaven, Eris, if you were not there, goddess." he whispers to me, his voice to sweet and silky that its astonishing his teeth have not rotted. And as I descend from my throne in a fashion that only befits me, drawing ever closer to my deceptive shadow, he in turn closes the gap between us.
He pushes closer, his maw touching mine ever so gently. Oh how tempting he makes it to simply push ever so closer, but alas, I am not one to give in to such temptations so easily, but he's more than welcome to continue trying. "You must have heard my prayers then," he murmers, a daring look in those silver eyes of his as he pulls away from the short lived touch. I smirk at him for the shortest of seconds, before falling into my act of sadness and hurt that he did not believe I would come back for him. I want to know about him, and I want him to let go of some of the emotions I can see trapped inside of him. For it does not do a trickster good to fall victim to have so many emotions built up, so easy to bring out with just the right stimulus.
I watch as his ears fall back and he steps forward, a new look swimming in the silver of his gaze. "You are not the only goddess that has placed their charms upon me, Eris, and only time will tell if you are more worthy of faith than she ever was. he says, so much bitterness and years of anger in that voice of his. Bingo! This is what I was looking for, a key to a door that would allow me to delve farther into the enigma that is Enderly. "It's true us goddesses have our similarities, but we are all quite different I can assure you," I say, my voice holding a new, sudden sharp edge to it, one that said 'do not compare me to anyone ever.' No other female would ever be like me, maybe this other female would have some things in common, but she would never be such as I. I was a completely different organism all together.
Just as quickly as he let me in, did he throw up another mask to masquerade with. "Yet you could always prove your worthiness of my devotion. Tell me, Eris, do you plan to remain in Molodian or will other frivolous matters call you back to Heaven? This demon cannot abide waiting, it is much too tame." I almost snorted in amusement at his words, like I should care about his patience. If he truly desired something, he should be able to wait a thousand year's for its return, because for him, nothing would ever come close to its equal. But what do I know. "One thing you should know about me, my dear, is that I only do something if I want to. Which means that I returned because I want to be here, because there is something I want here....." was I alluding to Enderly? Maybe, but that will be for him to interpret how he desires. "To answer it quite plainly, since I wouldn't want to keep my demon waiting, yes, I do plan on staying in Moladion, for quite some time to. Unless you have objections to this?"
