Chapter 44: Tangled Heartstrings

'Un tristi kor non devrait estrettre relictus seul.'

A sad heart should not be left alone.

***

A purple haze clouds Kiora's thoughts. She feels another's hand guiding her own along the keyboard. Her eyes open to see Santanna lean for a kiss.

"What the fu**?" Kiora shouts.

She punches his cheek. The old Daemik rubs his face.

"What's wrong?" He asks. Santanna's voice seethes with discontent. "I thought we could connect as before."

Kiora rises. She proceeds to leave but halts. An odor alarms her senses. 'The incense!' Kiora's thoughts exclaim.

"What's that smoke?" She demands.

"Oh?" Santanna smirks. "A blend of two roses, ma cherisa. I presumed black and purple would've worked well for meditation. Clearly, I was right."

The Shak-Leid's last statement reflects a tinge of bitterness. 'What will you do?' Santanna wonders. He watches with a twisted delight as Kiora storms out of the chamber.
