Drusilla remained in the kitchen, though she could hear the rise in the conversation Owen was having with Darcy. She had stopped doing anything specifically, unintentionally having begun to eavesdrop when she sensed that something was wrong. She couldn’t hear Darcy’s end of the conversation, but Owen’s responses were enough to enlighten her on the situation.
Sanders was missing.
She took a deep breath to steady herself, smoothing her hands over her abdomen, but she flinched each time the phone made impact. Her tailed curled tightly towards her spine when the object met the wall. For a moment, there was silence, and Drusilla waited it out. She knew the patterns of Owen’s anger. The incandescence of his rage often came in waves until he wore himself out on it.
Drusilla appeared in the yard with a bottle of water that she held loosely at her side. She kept her distance from him, he wouldn’t like it if she crowded him or fawned over him before he was ready to be taken care of.
“Sir?”
It was both a question and announcement of her presence. She didn’t dare ask if he was alright, or if there was anything she could do. His answers to both questions would be predictable and asking them would only annoy him. He’d be irritated enough that she was witnessing him in a moment of weakness. She was here for him, for whatever he needed, and he knew that.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
