"Who says that they are fake?" She answered calmly.
Cosmos let go of her hand but he continued to block the door and retained the amused look on his face. "Come on, we both know what you are, a villainess crying for a horse." He chuckled and shook his head. "I thought that you wanted to win his heart and grasp his loyalty firmly, fighting with him is not the way to accomplish your goal."
Sigrid smacked her lips and wagged her finger, "There are many ways to skin a rat Cosmos, I do not have all of his loyalty yet and as for his heart, we both know that he does not love me.
I must set boundaries early enough in order to protect myself, he should understand that things which belong to me cannot be taken or given away at his whims.
Today he takes my horse and tomorrow it could be my position as crown princess. I will not take chances, everything, no matter how small must be used to my advantage.
Besides, he likes it when I am feisty, I am a puzzle and a challenge that is always on his mind. If I am soft, clingy, needy and weepy like Emmah, he will get bored."
"So you are keeping him on his toes." Cosmos folded his arms across his chest, he nodded slowly as he could she her point. "I can see that working in your favor, you are on his mind right now, he is not even thinking about Emmah who is already regretting why she faked sickness because she has been put on bed rest for a week."
"But I do want my Venom back" Sigrid said honestly, "She will not survive at Stormwind, truly. I have been feeding her some elixirs from the mage estate and your bank, she is an intelligent horse that runs errands for me sometimes. She is bound to be a beauty when she grows up, if she is at Stormwind, they will keep breeding her until she is old and useless...."
"She is a horse!" Cosmos exclaimed, using the same tone as Roland.
