You stupid girl, I'm glad I'm finally getting rid of you, you useless bitch!" The huge man with slick black hair screamed at the small girl curled into a defensive position hugging her knees below him while he kicked her over and over again with all his might. The young red headed girl closed her eyes tightly biting her lip, causing a thin glinting line of dark red blood to drip down her pale chin with a heavy flow of tears running down her thin cheeks. She could feel her head spinning and she knew she would pass out soon. Her master is going to sell her tomorrow at the huge slave actuation many wealthy people attend and she knew she would sell fast, for her kind the finalis are worth millions of dollars for their brute strength and heightened senses. Morgiana slowly peeled her eyes open still taking the kicks to her already bruised and beaten back, her vision was going black until she felt herself finally pass out.
...
Morgiana slowly blinks her eyes open to see that she is already at the slave action her eyes widen at the sight of how many slaves were crowded in small cages some screaming reaching their hands out to the people watching them from outside the cage. Others sitting in the corner trying to hide there sobbing faces. Most were sweaty from the summer heat beating down on them and dirty and covered head to toe with marks from their masters beating them, just like she was. The constant sounds of chains clanging loudly on bars made morgiana cringe, she was relieved to find herself in her own cage, yet she almost felt lonely but she used to that.
She was quite surprised that jamil, her dreaded master had even let her sleep this long, he usually only let her sleep for a couple hour at a time. She looks down to see herself entangled in her huge cold metal chains. Her chains were much bigger and stronger than most because she could snap normal ones with the flick of her wrist, and if the chains Weren't enough the water she was always given had a strange mixture in it that made her weaker. Only as a child had morgiana even had the tiniest glimmer of hope that she could actually escape but the long years of her toucher had swept away any crumb of hope she ever had.
She sweeps the street looking at all the different people laughing at the helpless slaves in their cages and a stunningly handsome man glanced her way as he walked slowly and proudly past slave cages. His Eyes crystal blue with a huge scar painted along his face. His gaze softened a bit as he stared at the poor girl who had bruises and cuts covering her head to toe with extremely thick chains stretching over her ankles he couldn't help but wonder why she seemed to have much stronger chains than the rest of the slaves. The man slowly walked next to her cage and inches closer to her, she was in a daze staring at his captivating features but she instinctively backed to the Corner of her cage.
Just cause he looks nice defiantly doesn't mean he is, she whispered in her head. "Hurry hakuryuu!" a man that was walking next to him yelled noticing him staring at her. he shoots morgiana's a saddened look before he whispers something into her cage "ill save you." he said in a low tone before taking off. leaving the stunned girl with her eyes wide. "Hakuryuu" she whispers as she touches her chapped lip with her bony finger, save me? no one can save me she replied in her head. Suddenly her cage was flung open and strong large hands grabbed her tearing her thoughts away. Morgiana didn't resist she knew it was pointless and she was drugged too there was simply no chance she could escape their strong grip. The large unknown men dragged her onto a stage like structure with hundreds of people seated all eyes on her. She showed no emotion with her eyes empty.
"Here we have a young pretty girl." The man that was already standing in wait for her on the stage screams loudly. He inches closer to her and he roughly grabs her chin to look up at him for a moment sending shivers down her spine as the icy cold fingers touched her skin. She still didn't put up a fight just simply let them do what they wanted, worse things had happened at least she wasn't naked like last time. The man stares at her with a hungry expression before he continues and releases her face "and she's a finalis!" He screamed the crowd seemed to liven up as whispers were exchanged and some eyes widened. The eyes seemed to study her more intently making her flinch. Large numbers spouted out one by one and signs were thrown up, the man next to her laughed and convinced people to go higher, and higher as he talked at a extremely fast rate. All morgiana did was watch as her fate was decided for her.
But the crowd went completely silent as the last number was said "60,000" a cold low voice shouted. Even morgiana,s eyes flew open to see who was willing to pay that much for her, but sadly his face was covered by the crowd of people. No one has ever paid that much, or even close to that much for a slave. "Eh, ok can anyone go higher?" The creepy man next to her smiled. The crowd stayed quiet and morgiana was shoved back into the cage she was just in and the men painted a number onto the metal bars of the cage.
She couldn't help but fear what kind of person was going to beat her next, if he was so wealthy he must be horrible. Ever single Noble or just rich people she had ever met had been the worst kind of people, she hated them. Morgiana sat In the cage for a good hour. she just quietly watched the slave action continue with some children crying as they got ripped out of theirs mothers arms and thrown on the stage. It reminded her of herself how she much she would cry and scream and fight for freedom that never found its way to her. She hardly even remember her mother and father she always tried to picture how they looked but all she remember was faceless smiles with her same red hair.
Two men finally let her out of the cold cage and shoved her into yet another one but it was attached to a cart. The cart just kept going and going for hours and hours. Its gone so far from the place she had been all her life. It was almost a little scary being so far from it, but at the same time she felt a huge weight lift off her shoulders. And if the person that bought her lived so far away why the hell would they buy a slave that was from here? Morgiana's mind was racing trying to think of a rational explanation but she couldn't. All she could think about was the man, his words I'll save you racing through her head. The heat of the day turned to the chill of the night as morgiana just gazed endlessly out the bars and watched the scenery dance by until she felt her eyes becoming heavy and let out a sigh as she fell to sleep, she actually a little happy to see as she hasn't even gotten beaten today. But she knew this feeling wouldn't last long.
She wakes up to two men dragging her out of the cart and onto her feet as they walk her to the castle holding her roughly. Her vision is still blurry and she blinks trying to restore her vision from her long slumber and stumbles to her feet as she's practically being dragged. She stares in awe at the huge towering building that gets bigger as she gets closer to it. She's soon in the huge building that has plenty of red inside but it was stunning. So many red with gold splashed here and there. The Huge ceiling was so tall it had to have been 20 feet with huge spiral stair cases. The strange men led her up the large stairs and over around a corner leading to a large hallway that only led to one door. Her heart raced as she knew that her master would be beyond the huge door now towering in front of her. The guards slowly knock on the door lightly "prince, we have your slave" the man said politely. Morgiana eyes widen as she beholds Hakuryuu, the man that told her that he would save her as he swings open the door.
The man gives her the most truest smile she had ever seen in her life. All she did was stand there frozen as she stared at the man shocked. Hakuryuu dismissed the people off of her and they left after a quick bow. Hakuryuu beckoned for her to enter the room and she did with her painfully loud chains clinking loudly behind her. once agin noticing how beatify decorated the rooms were. His room had more of a balance of blue and black with a huge bed in the center of the fairly large room that had a door she assumed led to his own bathroom.
The room was extremely clean and it made her nervous considering how dirty and disgusting she was. She kelpt her head to the ground, what is he going to do? Beat me, rape me? Or is there an actually possible chance he's going to 'save' me? The thoughts throbbed in her head and she could feel herself growing more nervous by the second. The tall man shut the doors behind them with a loud thunk.
The tall man gently laid his hand on her small shoulders making her flinch. "Your not going to hit me?" She said she covered her mouth quickly as she realized she had said it out loud. "Of course not!" He said as he faced her a little angry. "I told you i would save you" he said softly with his smile radiating down on her. "Your pretty dirty" he said with a chuckle "s-sorry" she said with a worried look still not completely convinced that he wasn't going to use her.
He noticed how nervous he was and how much she expected to be abused making his smile sadden. "What's your name?" He says gently motioning for her to sit in a chair next to the chair he just took a seat at. She does obediently. " morgiana, master" she says with her face blank. "you dont have to call me that." hakuryuu snapped her eyes widen. She doesn't know what else to call him, she has never in her entire life called someone by their name.
"Call me hakuryuu, morgiana" he said softly her ears blushed as she heard him say her name. No one has ever called her by her name eierther. The masters she had always called her slave, bitch, whore and other vile things but she latched onto her name like it was her life, it was the only thing she possessed that linked her to her parents she doesn't even know how but she did in fact remember her parents calling her that.
"Ha-hakuryuu" she said bearly able to hear it herself. He gave her a smile "and dont worry im not going to do anything to you." He said. Morgiana sat there confused for a moment. "why? Why did you save me? if you aren't going to use me, Then why did you waste your money on me?" Morgiana continues with her face twisted in confusion "i'm your slave. So why?" Hakuryuu rises to his feet " you are not my slave" he says as he neals down in front of the finalis with a strange tool. She shivers as he gets close to her and takes her foot in his hand.
"you don't have to touch me i'm disgusting!" She screams still completely confused, no has ever shown her kindness it was completely new to her. And she thinks this is the most she has ever spoken, all she is used to saying is sorry and yes master. The thought left a strange taste in her mouth.
Hakuryuu places the confusing metal device into morgiana ridiculously huge shackles twisting it about and the metal clanging below her. Her chains fall in half and fall to the floor with a loud clink making her jump. She looks down at her swollen ankles red and covered in dirt, the chains have turned her poor thin ankles a shade of grey and her skin dry. She stares at them stunned, hakuryuu moves to her left ankle and does the same thing he looks up to the girl who is staring her feet dumbfounded with thick streams of tears escaping from her eyes.
" did i hurt you!?" He says loudly scolding himself as he searches her feet to see if he had picked her with the tool her poor ankles seem to be fine besides the leftovers of years of the metal biting at them. He looks back up to the crying girl and it seems she doesn't even realize she's crying.
He rises to his feet and takes her shoulder shaking her a bit "hey, are you ok?" He says loudly. She blinks out of her trance and gives him the most pained look he has ever seen in his life making his heart race. She stares at him her eyes glowing and her cheeks soaked she smiles and throws herself into the man's arms.
The girl squeezes him with a bit too much strength making his gasp for air for a moment. She starts sobbing violently in the man's arms "t-t-tha-ank" you she hiccuped into the hakuryuu's chest. She was shocked at her own actions, she had never cried so hard in her life even was she first became a slave she had never cried the was she was right now. He graciously hugged her back holding the small girl tight as if he was protecting her.
"Y- you saved me." Said as she finally released the man giving him a smile. He felt something in his throat, he himself was almost on the verge of tears seeing the poor girl so happy just have those dreaded chains off of her ankles. Morgiana quickly wipes her tears apologizing for her behavior. They stood there for a moment staring at each other. "You can go take a bath if you want" he said cutting into the silence.
"Really? Are you sure you would let someone like me bathe here?" She spoke genuinely concerned. He gave a gentle smile as if it was enough to awnser her question and opened the door to his huge bathroom with a pearl white tub in the corner accompanied with towels folded by the double sink. She steps into the bathroom and starts untying her beaten up dirty dress with hakuryuu still standing by the door frame.
"W-wait let me close the door first!" He Stuttered his cheeks red as morgiana started to lift her dress exposing her thighs he quickly slammed the door shut. Morgiana looked confused, she wasn't confident with her body in fact she had assumed she was the ugliest women as thats what's she's been told her entire life. Whenever she bathed the men still would watch her and she grew to not become embarrassed and just got used to it. She thought there were two types of men. The ones that simply wanted her for her strengths and fighting skills and those who wanted both her body and her fighting skills.
She shrugs off the unwanted thoughts, hakuryuu is different! She shouted in her mind as she turns on the tub filling it with steamy water as she finishes undressing. The water felt like the closest she has ever been to heaven. The water felt a little too hot at first but she got used to it soon enough she had never taken a hot bath not even a warm one. She always had to use freezing cold water that made her shiver.
She laid there for quite awhile before she even started to wash herself. She scrubbed herself violently, and tried to wash her hair that almost looked black because of all the filth in it. Once she was done she rose out of the tub dripping with water the clear tub water was now a shade of brown. Just as her foot hit the tile a reserved woman in a familiar maid dress walked in. She had short stocky brown hair and had simple features with extremely large breasts almost making the fanalis jealous.
Her cheeks go a light pink as she looks at morgiana's bare body. Morgiana kept her blank expression and stared at the girl a bit confused. "Ah, sorry here are your clothes!" The girl says covering her eyes flustered as she sets a neat pile of clothes on the counter and rushes off through the door as fast as she could. Morgiana drys herself extremely pleased with how soft the towel was. There was an array of clothes she could chose she spread them all out on the counter. They were all dresses and each very different designs most looked complicated and uncomfortable so morgiana chose the simplest one.
It was a clean shade of white and had a white cloth that wraps around te waste. Decently pleased with how it looks she cleans the bathroom to the best of her ability and peaks through the door and slowly closes the bathroom door behind her causing hakuryuu to look her way. "Woah, your hair is so pretty" hakuryuu said as he rose from his chair closing his book. He goes to grab her hair and gently strokes it for a moment before he lets her still wet glistening red hair fall back to her shoulders. "I could bearly even tell your hair was red before you were so dirty" he said morgiana was fully aware of that fact and lowered her head. "But i could still tell you were beautiful" he said with a smile. Morgiana found herself growing painfully attached to that stunning smile of his.
