Summary
She’s curled in Hornet’s arms, shadowed slightly by Hornet’s silhouette, but still tinted a honey-gold. She sleeps silent as a babe, unknowing of her beauty. Her breaths are the only sound. The rising and falling of her chest, the only thing Hornet’s promised. Lace’s eyelashes flutter amidst a distant dream. Her hair is feathered across the pillow in airy wisps.
Her hair. Hornet lies awake because of Lace’s hair.
Or: Spiders commonly eat silk to reuse the proteins.
