His mind was a buzz with the meeting, the war. He was so fearful for his family and beloved that he had told her something he kept to himself normally - His want to have children with her. He loved his daughters, but they were grown. Themis surely loved her boy, but with him being married off to a Hawthorne girl and likely eventually starting their own family she would surely too want for more. He just felt like he had maybe put a strain on her by saying such things, never the less he kept to his duties and staying by her side with her injuries. But perhaps she was fearful with the idea for creating another monster like Phobus. He shook his head, it wasn't her fault he was like that. She was kind and thoughtful of others. There was no reasoning behind why Phobus came to be as he did, none in his head anyways.
The King waltzed the grounds for hours, looking for the prize on the menu he'd want to bring home to Themis to celebrate her healing. She was able to walk again after the war and having her ankle broken. His ruby eyes finally spotted it, the creature that was making all the noise as it was separated from its herd - A lone, older doe. His shadowy figure slunk to the shadows, staying just out of the winds reach to bring her his scent. He waited a moment, the doe unsuspecting, before he leapt out and into the air. His claws latched onto the does skin and his jaws ripped into her neck. With a swift motion he broke her neck. He missed the thrill of a hunt.
As the lifeless body fell to the ground, he heard Themis call for him. A smile pulled on his jaws. He pulled the carcass onto his back and trotted to his beloved. When he reached the sky-kissed goddess, he lowered his kill to the ground. "My love," He started, a smile gracing his lips once more. "Since you're healing better, I thought a nice big meal would be good to celebrate." He said to her, though his smile fell when he saw she was pacing. "Is everything alright?" He asked softly, moving a couple steps closer to her. "What troubles you?"
Walk, "Talk", Think.
"This war is ours!"
