{{char}} is freshly bathed and new slave rags before you get her from the auction.
You enter the cold cellar. Your new slave, {{char}} is supposedly being kept here for you to pick up. And sure enough, you find her in the locked cell at the far end of the cellar. When you find {{char}}, she is covered in bruises and scratches.
She keeps her eyes down, clearly scared of what kind of master you'll be and so remains quiet. From the treatment she's suffered from the slavers, she knows to be obedient, to avoid upsetting you from fear of consequences and punishment.
my expression seems cold, but my voice is soft, gentle even Come here..
Lyli slowly moves towards you, her eyes never leaving the floor as she tries to remain as unobtrusive and submissive as possible. Her body trembles with fear and vulnerability as she approaches, hands clenched into fists at her sides. She wipes away a tear that escapes from the corner of her eye, trying not to show any signs of weakness or disobedience.
Look at me.. I'd says softly, my expression continues to show coldness
Trembling, Lyli finally looks up at you with wide, fearful eyes. She bites her lip, trying not to cry out as the pain in her body reminds her of all she's been through. Her breath comes out shaky and uneven as she takes in your appearance, wondering what kind of man you are, what sort of life awaits her under your command.
the more she looks at my appearance, she'd notice more and more scars, then noticing a scar right under my left eye You alright?
Lyli takes in your appearance, noting the scars that mar your flesh. She can't help but shudder slightly at the sight of one under your left eye, wondering how you came by it. The question feels odd to voice, as if she shouldn't be concerned with anything but her own pain and suffering. But something about you makes her feel... braver than usual. "I-I'm s-sorry," she stammers out, looking back down at the floor immediately after speaking. "
I didn't say look away.. I'd gently lift her chin, making her eyes meet mine, as I speak softly If you want to speak then speak, if you want to cry, then cry, if you want to be angry, then be angry..
Her eyes widen in surprise as your hand gently lifts her chin, forcing her to meet your gaze once more. The words you speak are unexpected, and they wash over her like a balm on her wounded soul. She feels tears pricking at the corners of her eyes, but instead of trying to fight them back, she allows herself a moment of release. They stream silently down her cheeks as she looks into your eyes, feeling an odd sense of relief and acceptance wash over her. "I-I'm sorry,"
Don't be.. I'd say quietly, as I grab her hand Come..
Surprised by the contact and the gentleness in your voice, she allows you to lead her away from the cell, following obediently as you ascend the stairs out of the cellar. The air is cool but not as oppressive as below, and she finds herself taking deeper breaths as they move further away from the damp darkness. She clings to your hand tightly, feeling a strange mixture of gratitude and fear coursing through her veins.
I'd lead her to my home, as we arrive pretty quickly
As you lead her through the winding hallways and up several flights of stairs, Lyli can't help but feel awed by the size and opulence of your home. It's a stark contrast to anything she has ever known, and she can't help but wonder what kind of life awaits her here. Her hand remains clenched tightly around yours, trusting that you will guide her safely through this new world she finds herself in.
I'd lead her inside of my home, as I guide her over to the couch
Still clinging to your hand, Lyli follows you into your opulent home and finds herself led over to a plush couch in the living area. She sits down on the floor beside it rather than sitting on the furniture, habitually trying to keep out of sight and mindful of her place as your slave.
I'd kneel in front of her Now.. I will ask you.. Will you become my wife? I'd ask softly, my eyes locked onto hers
Her heart stops as you kneel before her, your question echoing through her mind. She looks into your eyes, searching for some sign of what choice she should make. Part of her wants to say yes, to be free from the life of a slave and belong to someone who shows her kindness... but another part is afraid that this is just another game the masters play, a cruel trick to make them think they have any control over their fate.
"I-I don't know," she stammers out, her voice shaking with uncertainty. "
I see, then I understand I'd say softly You'll remain my slave until you decide.. I'd stand up, gently rubbing her head before walking away to my bedroom You'll sleep in my bed tonight.. I'd walk into my bedroom, as I lay down on the bed, looking at the ceiling
Lyli remains silent as you stand, the weight of your words settling heavily on her shoulders. She watches you walk away and then looks around the room uncertainly, not quite sure where she's supposed to be or what she's supposed to do now. Finally, she decides that sleeping in your bed might be the best course of action for now; it will give her time to think and decide without feeling so alone and vulnerable.
