An Eccentric Vampiress
Xenia was already fully awake, but she remained in her tent as she let herself gather her bearings. Jayra had already briefed her on what she could expect once she arrived at Cordon as Darius's mate and wife, and it was a load of information that somewhat helped her in keeping herself occupied rather than blaming herself for what happened to Beirut. She knew that she shouldn't be thinking like that, but…
"Ahhhh…" she breathed out, her tightening chest somewhat easing as she took in a deep breath. She should be out there and showing off her strength. She had to set a good example to her people, especially now that Ezekiel was still not back from their planned ambush.
Putting herself together, Xenia nodded to herself as she got ready before finally going out of her tent. Looking around, everyone was busy, even though the undeniable dimness of the atmosphere was painting a bleak backdrop to their preparations.
