She lived for Miranda. Mothered her and led her. Danced and laughed with her.
They swore never to be parted again.
They led separate lives, but stayed close. Till the day Miranda disappeared.
Lorelei called it in. Endured the interviews with Missing Persons. Sweated, stretched on the rack of waiting, hoping and fearing.
And then the world shattered.
She didn't wait for the funeral or the inquest.
Her life and purpose obliterated, she fled.
Until she found him.
The man she called master.
He gave her meaning, taught her to deny her grief.
She gave him her all.
