I stared up at Lady Furia who stood with her mate preparing to board their ship now. She playing with my hair and she shrilled gently as she looked me over.

"I know we will not be coming back here to reclaim you for you will be the best human you can be." Lord Furia said with a tint of firmness in his tone. I nodded at him.

"Yes my lord." I replied and he nodded and turned from me. Lady Furia watched me.

"You will serve him well and make him happy." she told. I nodded once more.

"Yes milady." I replied. She nodded and turned from me and began to follow her mate. She looked back at me with soft shrills. It was like she was leaving her pet at a pet store or something. Even though I was born on another world, I was allowed to go to Earth with my lord and lady when certain hunting events arose. They left through a door which led them through a small tube that connected to their ship. They were the last to leave. All of the other guests have already left.

I was left standing there for a moment before the doors behind me opened, and I turned to see Orion standing there with disgust fully dressed in his armor.

"Come." he commanded and I did as I was told and walked up to him quickly, standing before him with my fingers curled and my head down some. I could feel his eyes looking over me again, and when I glanced up at him, I noticed his eyes were more of a deep gold then yellow. "Follow."

He turned from me and began to move from the empty room. I followed right behind him noticing how large he was to walk behind. His feet made created large clanging noises on the ground.

"Your only purpose on my ship is to obey. I am the master and you are the pet." he said. I did not reply for I was unsure if I was able to speak. "Do you understand?"

He looked back at me now and I nodded quickly.

"Yes." I replied.

"Yes what?" he asked in a stone like tone. I swallowed a bit.

"Yes Master." I replied. I was used to milady or milord, I would preferred to milord, but it mattered not what I wanted. I followed him throughout the ship listening to him.

"I am an assassin as I am sure you have heard. I am called to kill and I take the job. You are to follow any orders I give you without question. If you undermine anything I say you will be punished. If I ask you a question you will speak honestly, I do not like liars. In my care you could get sick or die or grow hungry if we become stranded…I may even be forced to kill and eat you." he replied firmly. I winced a bit at his last statement.

"Yes Master." I replied softly. He glanced back at me before walking through two sliding doors which led to a large room. Before us was a large bed and two the right in the back was an in ground tub. Everywhere there were skulls of all kinds of creatures I had never seen before.

"Your last owners have left you numerous clothes to wear. You are free to wear what you wish. That is all you possess on this ship. Anything you own will be with my permission. Understood?" he asked looking over me. I was a bit intimidated by his massive size now, so much I could speak and he started to frown. "Must I teach you to speak when spoken to already, Pet?" I shook my head.

"I understand, Master." I replied. He leaned back some looking me over.

"Stay." Was his only reply and he moved over to a closet space further back in the room. "You are called Ajari?" Oh no, would he change my name? I lifted my head.

"Yes Master." I replied, and he nodded pulling out a bunch of animal skins. He started to lie them on the floor in front of his large bed that had furs amongst them too.

"You sleep here. We wake up together, we bathe together, we eat together, and throughout the day you do as I say, then when I sleep you sleep." he stated and I nodded quickly.

"Yes master." I replied. He nodded.

"Good. Come I will show you all of the ship so you know where everything is when they need to be fetched." he replied and left out the room. I began to follow him once more. He showed me the control room, his weapons and training room, his dining room and the area where he cooked his food of which I would be in charge of preparing. He also had torture chambers. I could see chains tied to the wall and dried blood all over the place. The smell was gross.

Orion looked down at me.

"This is where liars and creatures come when they don't tell me what I want to know." he said. I nodded quickly.

"Yes Master." I replied. He nodded and turned and moved from the room. He also had a room where there were numerous chemicals bubbling and tubes and such. I was curious of it all, but I tried hard not to show it. When all was done, Orion continued to move at a swift pace throughout the ship. My legs did grow a bit tired from the quick movements, but I did my best to hide them. After showing me around, he asked me where specific rooms were and I was glad to have good memory. I was able to remember where some rooms were. I was too nervous of what he would do if I didn't remember so I made sure to pay very careful attention.

When he moved back to his room, he made me stand near the furs on the ground, and I watched him as he removed his armor and placed them on certain stands on the wall above his mask which was a pure black mask with the mild shape of a roaring predator of some sort. It was scary to look at.

"Remove your wrapping." I heard him suddenly command, and I looked at him to see him standing in the entrance way of another room. I noticed in his hand was a black stick looking thing. Already I was tense and nervous that he planned to hit me with it, but I did nothing but move my hands to my chest wrap and began to unwrap it. Once I removed it, I moved down to the wrap around my waist and started to slowly unwrap it. Once I was done, I stood before my new master again and kept the wraps in my hands in front of my crotch. He gave a sharp shrill.

"Drop it." he commanded. I couldn't this time. I did not want him to see me fully bare. I clutched the wraps tighter, and this made him grow lowly. He moved up to me and with the stick, which I saw had black leather whips at the end of them, he whipped it right across my hands quickly, and I gave a soft yelp. The burn was hot and swift and in seconds my fingers released the wraps, and I bit my lip hard looking up at his growling face. "The next time it will be your back." I nodded quickly looking down, but he gripped my face and made me look up at him. He removed his hand, and I did not dare look down. He took another step back and began to look me over, examining me now. He seemed to be lost in heavy thought, and suddenly he snapped his head up at me and stared at my eyes. His fear was heavy and thick. Maybe he was having second thoughts of having me here. Who knows what Lord Furia would do to me, if they had to come back for me.

I stared at him a bit longer before he gave a snort of disgust maybe and turned and moved towards the in ground tub.

"Come here." he demanded. I did as I was told, and he took my wrist quickly pulled me into the tub, and I just stood there watching as he began to undress himself further to the point he was naked. I couldn't stop my eyes from widening in utter fear.
