[center][color=f26522][h2]Kalani Solle[/h2][/color] Bride of [color=bc8dbf]Cuwarr Naxremis[/color] and sister-bride of [color=00a99d]Amalia Solair[/color] [hider=Summary] Short post about Kalani's jealousy again. [/hider] [/center] Kalani listened politely to the girl's reply and was surprised. She was aware that some Gem families had purposely trained their daughters to become the perfect brides for the Drakken, but it was uncommon where she was from. Surely, her training had failed her while she may be kind, she was not silent as she had mentioned. But in addition to that, she was definitely not modest. She was playing the hurt victim and held such pride for her ability to "love". Then again, if she had been modest, she would not be here in the first place. She would have kept her mouth shut and not offend the guards. She would have known her place and she still does not. Kalani did not have to say anything as Cuwarr finally began to speak. While his words were somewhat cold, his actions were sweet. He wrapped the shivering girl with a warm blanket and kissed her gently on the forehead. [color=bc8dbf]"You are not unwanted,"[/color] he had told her. Kalani coughed, trying to not get jealous by this display. [color=f26522][i]"Calm down, calm down. You knew your fate,"[/i][/color] she chanted in her head. Why did she have to feel something as petty as jealousy? And because of a beautiful sister-bride? They were both in the same boat yet Kalani could not help but feel something ugly. She had not felt that way with Sorici, so why was she so bothered by this girl? She was only to calm down when Cuwarr returned to his seat and wrapped his arms around her. He was rubbing her shoulders and arm, indicating that he was probably doing his best to keep her warm. She was not actually cold as she did not get cold easily, but she did not tell him that. Instead, she cuddled closer towards him and looked up towards him with loving eyes. But his attention was not on her. It was on Amalia.
