The wind blows gently against the door of the tavern. Natures knock signaling that the spirits of the past would never stop haunting us. Every girl, every woman here had a story with more skeletons in it’s cast than one would assume. Some of their scars carried out in the open for see, my worst mistake just happened to live with me half the year.
It is not that I resent my daughter. A part of me wishing I could feel the mother’s love I see some women wear with pride. For the most part, my life was made simple because I was not your average adoring mother. I love Circe, but my love has always come with a price. A lesson I would be proud to pass onto my siren offspring.
Nicky sat at the bar, drink in hand. He looked miserable as if he was about to rot. My mind guessing the spirits so violently trying to tear down my establishment were following his haunted soul. The little I knew of this wayward man disgusted me and yet still tugged on my hear strings. He was the stray puppy that I had taken under my wing (in some kind of sense), however he did serve his purpose well. There was nothing in the world that could make me admit that I had somehow grown fond of him for I promised myself to never care for man ever again.
How he managed to know more about my daughter than me was always a mystery. Still, I had my eyes everywhere and they did not like what they were seeing.
“Nicky darling. Rumor has it Circe has been hanging around one of the Morrisen boys, now I know my little girl would never be so foolish. She might be her father’s daughter but she has spent enough time with me to know that a man is never up to any good.” I paused for a second, contemplating if I should make any excuses for present company.
I decided against it.
“It’s Oleander doing, isn’t it. Is he loosing his grasp on her? Hoping someone else would keep her in line? You must know something, drinks on the house obviously.”
