Gift
Maleficent noted the curious look from both Aurora and Diaval as she placed the bracelet onto the girl's wrist.
"I can't always be around to play at nanny so if you wish to enter the Moors you can, as long as you use this. However, keep this hidden from those halfwits you live with and do not come here again at night. "
She said, one part of her brain sneering at her for not just forbidding the girl from returning to the moors.
"Why not? I mean why can't I come here at night? I've done that almost every weekend since winter break ended. "
Maleficent knew it wasn't an act of defiance but it still made her growl in annoyance because she did not want to explain herself.
Especially not when it was obvious that she was concerned for the enemy.
"Because that beast was obviously targeting fae and we have no idea how much scent gets on you or if the Moors have effected your scent. Or would you rather be mauled? "
Was there a way to say that without giving an allusion she cared?
"If the dog was trained to hunt faeries who would have that much knowledge? I thought you said few humans even knew about the existence of this place? "
Maleficent cursed the girl's intellect.
How could she tell her that Stefan was the one behind all of this?
"The one who ruined me."
She found herself saying instead, only to be farther surprised when the girl sent her a look.
"He didn't ruin you, Godmother. You may not be able to fly anymore but you aren't ruined."
Maleficent found herself so loss for words in fact that she just walked away, wondering if it was bravery or foolishness that made the girl so forward with her.
Grace and beauty. More like the gift of being a intrepid little brat.
The fairy thought, glancing behind her when she heard the words
"She's moody today."
Which prompted her to send a wave of golden magic toward the girl, causing a crack of thunder to sound right behind the girl, causing her to jump in shock.
"Godmother!"
"I may not be whole but my hearing works fine, Beastie."
