Reincarnated as Fox’S Slave {HTCS}
The Gift
That was the first thing she felt.
For several seconds she didn’t move.
Her head throbs painfully, as if something inside her skull had cracked open.
....
*blurry vision* {what... it's so...}
....
*puts hand over her head*
She sits up weakly leaning against the cold metal behind her back and knees against the cold metal.
....
*vision finally clearing*
The room around her was massive, far larger than any room she had ever seen.
This place looked like a palace.
But why was she in a cage?
....
i remember i was…at...*Mumbling*
The last thing she remembered was blood on floor.
....
*eyes widened touching her neck*
....
{how am I still alive... what's going on...}
Her fingers tremble as she touches the metal bars, heart beat increasing.
A voice broke the silence.
....
Well, interesting it appears this one woke up sooner than expected
Two figures stood several steps away from the cage.
One of them was a young man dressed in simple servant like clothes.
....
*leans back against the cage, scared*
....
{the f€ck is that thing?}
Long white rabbit ears flopping from his hair, drooping slightly as he watches her with nervous eyes.
The other figure was far stranger.
A tall man leaning lazily on a black cane, his face painted like a jester.
Jester
*tilts his head slightly*
Jester
She seems so healthy *chuckles*
....
*Glances at her, then quickly looks away*
....
W-where am i at? *mumbling in a low voice*
....
This is the eastern palace *low voice*
He nervously answers, his ears lowering nervously
....
You were brought here earlier tonight-
Jester
*whistling in a low voice*
....
Brought? *confused and scared*
Her gaze flickers between them fear making her more confused
....
I don’t understand. I was... I...
The jester chuckles softly, interrupting her
Jester
My my bunny, you are so timid
....
I was just- *nervously looking*
Jester
let me answer the pretty lady *gives a mocking bow*
Jester
*walks towards her cage, tapping his cane against the floor*
Jester
You don’t need to understand
Jester
You’re simply a gift
....
*chill crawls down her spine*
....
tell me what does that mean...*Gripping on the iron bar tightly*
....
Let me go from here...
the rabbit's eyes briefly met hers, filled with something that was like pity
....
If His Highness doesn’t like this one…
....
…I won’t be responsible for what happens.
....
What the hell is going on you people answer me--- *frowns*
Before she could speak again, the massive doors at the far end of the hall opens
....
*Immediately lowers his head*
Mortal.
A tall figure steps through the doorway
Red fox ears ponting sharply from his long dark red hair
her heart did this bad little flutter even in fear of being at unknown place.
He wore a long black robe with silver fox-tail patterns, over it, a dark red fur-lined cloak hung loosely from his shoulders
....
{he's beautiful... I never saw a man so beautiful...}
....
{what's wrong with me..!!!}
His long fluffly tail flicking lazily behind him
....
*frozen in her place blinded by his beauty*
His presence alone seemed to silence the entire hall
Although it had only three people.
Jester
*gives a dramatic bow with his arms open, letting his cane fall*
Jester
Your gift has arrived
The fox prince stops steps away from the cage
....
{gosh, stop staring at him, what are these guys planning to do to me}
....
*glances nervously down at her hands on her lap*
He didn’t even glance at her, as he looked at the jester with a bored expression
Jester
A token of goodwill, sent personally by Lord Varcain of the Verith Clawborn
....
*nervously fidgeting with his fingers*
Jester
Apparently their young lord believes Your Highness has been… bored lately
Jester
So they sent something entertaining
For a moment the fox prince didn’t react...
....
*looks at the girl in the cage*
And everything inside her froze...
....
{Those eyes… I know those eyes...}
....
{Those amber eyes… they were the exact same... I saw em...before I was killed by an unknown man...}
....
*eyes narrowing, looking from top to bottom*
....
{What if it was a coincidence...?}
....
*Fox ears flicked back in irritation, his tail lashed once in annoyance*
....
What the f*ck are you gawking at, creep?
His sudden remark caught her completely off guard
....
those big frog eyes make you look annoying.
....
{I'm caged, and wearing some shitty rag and this man he just-}
....
{This arrogant prick!! his personality doesn't match his face}
....
... Oh no this gonna be bad...*backing off mumbling*
Jester
*chuckles folding his arms* your highness you never change
....
*turns around to jester*
....
The wolf clan really sent me their leftovers this time
....
*stands up hands tightens on the cage bars, chest pressing against the cold metal*
And before she could stop herself and her anger-
....
Oh, screw you, you fox-faced, arrogant prick!!
....
What did you just say to me, you insolent mortal woman. *approaches the cage, ears twitching in anger*
....
*Leaning forward, long hair sliding over shoulders*
....
You’re just overgrown housecat with an ego bigger than your!!
....
Enough. No one ever dared to speak to me like that *frowns*
....
*Ears flat against his head, mumbling to jester* p-please stop his highness...
....
I should feed you to the snakes right now, watch them peel that skin off while you scream. It’d be faster than listening to your nonsense.
....
Go ahead you- *frowns more*
....
you are a disgusting mortal
Jester
*puts an arm around the bunny boy* the show just began and the show must go on~
....
H-hey get off me- *blushes*
Jester
*chuckles getting away from the bunny*
Confused kid
Jester
Your Highness… regrettably, that’s not allowed
Jester
She’s a formal gift from the wolf Clan. They were very specific in the contract
Jester
no killing, no disposal...They want their little peace offering to stay alive
Jester
Very strict. I’d hate for you to start another border war over a toy
Fox's lip curls in a sneer, seems like he hates being told no
....
{think you can kill me so easily, arrogant prick}
He looks like he wants to rip the cage apart and feed her to snakes already, her cocky behavior seems to make him more pissed
....
Fine! *turning away from her, tail already flicking in anger*
....
Keep the worthless toy she’s too ugly anyway
....
those frog eyes and that cheap mortal body, I’ll use her as a slave instead
....
Let her scrub floors until she learns her place *looks at jester with a dark look*
....
Tell the wolves I accepted their ‘gift.’ And if she causes any trouble
....
I’ll make sure they hear exactly how grateful I am
While they talked about the fate in the palace she was already too busy thinking about escaping to even pay attention to their conversation.
....
{ once I get out of this cage I'll try to escape this place but not before i poison this guy}
Jester
*bowed low* As you command, Your Highness. She’ll be kept intact… for now
....
*gestures at the cage with his eyes*
....
Unlock it. Dump her in the lower servant quarters. That damp little cell block, she can sleep there like the animal she is
He glances at her one last time, lingering on her body and face while she is busy having a weird expression on her face, before he forced a bored scoff
....
Weird creature...*Mumbling*
....
{hmm...she...seems determined about whatever she's thinking}
....
Tomorrow I’ll decide if I even want to keep looking at her. Right now she disgusts me
....
you disgust me too *rolling eyes*
The jester suddenly makes some keys appear in his hand and hands it over to the bunny boy.
Sooner she left the room, and followed the bunny servant, currently he is guiding her down a narrow creaky staircase.
....
*soft round tail flicks nervously behind him*
....
{why is that so cute...}
Aeres lunhare
Um… my name’s Aeres lunhare, by the way
He speaks in a low gentle voice
Aeres lunhare
What’s yours? So I know what to call you when the others ask
She opens her mouth to speak but nothing comes out...
....
{did i forgot my own name...it was something from ... from...}
....
*suddenly chest tightens*
....
I think i don't remember... It was...
Aeres lunhare
*glances over his shoulder, blinking confused*
....
It’s just… blank. Like someone erased it...
Aeres lunhare
*laughs softly*
Aeres lunhare
You’re funny, new arrivals always say weird stuff
....
*grabbing the sleeve of his uniform*
....
i really don’t belong here...i’m not from this… whatever this place is...
....
This isn’t my world. None of this is real!!
He laughs again, patting her hand like she was a confused kid
