I watch as Poppy walks away.
What… was that?
Her words still echo in my head, sharp and cold in a way I've never heard from her before. Poppy isn't the type to challenge me, let alone walk away from me in front of others. She's always been… loyal. Quiet. Sweet.
Someone must have planted these ideas into her head.
My jaw tightens.
And I know exactly who.
She only started speaking like this after she met her.
Daphne Nyxclaw.
If she thinks she can drive a wedge between me and Poppy—between me and any of my women—she's about to learn exactly what kind of mistake she's made.
Tonight, I'll make sure she understands her place.

Now… to pay attention to my bunny.
"Are you sure you don't want to go down to dance?" I ask my sweet bunny, my voice warm, coaxing.
