The room was surprisingly homely, well as homely as it could be all things considered. I was broken from this stray thought when an answer to my question arrived from sutego's lips.

"I'm sorry but for your safety I can't... Fuck it! You got caught up in what I can only assume was a rival organisations attack on me since I rule the underworld of this continent, and they wany that role for themselves." Sutego explained with an increasing volume as she spoke.

"Uh... sorry..." I whimpered out as I felt I was in the wrong and had made Sutego mad somehow unknowingly, I probably got in her way and was a burden in her...

"Ugh! I didn't want an apology." Sutego said harshly with clear frustration and restraint visible in her tone of voice.

This isn't what I wanted! I wanted to protect her, this little girl as soft as fresh cotton shouldn't have been exposed to this kind of situation, ever! But I'm the reason she is now in serious danger!

I'll fix this. I have been a part of this world for long enough, I have the power and resources needed and the determination to ensure nothing goes amis.

We are in this cities branch of one of my many less well known businesses. This one just happened to be close by and a nonviolent establishment, which is uncommon normally. A branch if one of my information brokerages.

"Tony! Get your as$ over here, now!" I growled at one of my, clearly incompetent, subordinates.

He wasn't in the room when I called but I know he heared me, luckily I could hear his desperate clamouring as he stumbled over before entering the room with a disguise of composure, that idiot.

"Boss! What do you need?" He reported a little too loudly but still according to standard procedure.
"Find out which b@stards were responsible for the interruption of my outing, pronto!" I yelled without restraint as it was the only available option to vent my rage at the thought of someone harming that little rabbit. However I noticed from the corner of my eye the kitten was shivering ceaselessly and it instantly drowned my anger with the new welling worry I felt for the innocent baby.

I was sat huddled in the corner of the seat I was placed on. I hugged my knees as I waited and tried to reduce my presence as much as I possibly could. Sutego's so scary right now... the caring gaze I had grown accustomed to during our short outing together was gone completely replaced with a bone chilling gaze of pure rage which I couldn't understand. Her anger twisted face bore an uncanny likeness to the image of demons in fairytales I had previously read.

I know it's still Sutego but this Sutego is different from the one I had began to grow close to... she was kind and caring but this Sutego seems cruel and unfeeling. I don't like this change, I don't like this Sutego. I want to go home...

Without realising I had began shaking violently from the intense new emotions, combined with the increasing stress and my fatigue from the day I then lost consciousness yer right before I did I saw Sutego rushing to me full of concern and care. It was the Sutego I know and had grown close to, my Sutego not the stranger who held an incredible likeness to her in appearance but who scared me terribly, my Sutego who I could rely upon and who always looked at me like a precious thing and treated me like ever fragile glass.

...

I awoke after some time, I don't know how long I've been asleep or where I am but I felt a strange comfort here, after a little more time had passed I realised that it was the familiar scent I had recently grown very fond of.

I hadn't realised until just now how the warn smell mixed with the smell of good wine and fresh bread that always seemed to accompany Sutego calmed me so much.

I looked around the unfamiliar room I had found myself in. I was currently laying in a king sized bed that was softer than any other bed I'd ever felt even my luxurious noble bed from when I first got here. The room had an unusual contrasting feeling to it. The warm smell like Sutego that lingered seemed so different from the cold and harsh theme present in the rooms decorations. The colours mainly consisted of black, white, grey and occasional blues and reds.

There was a dressing table to my left that held the bare minimum for what a person would need to tidy themselves after sleeping such as a brush and a few hair ties that are made of dark, coarse string and a mirror.

On the other side there was a wooden closet made of some dark wood I wouldn't be able to name without help.

Directly in front of the bed was a single door that appeared daunting to me even though I don't know why.

I looked at myself and realised that I was dressed in a set of light, white, soft pajamas. The top resembled a tshirt whilst the bottoms are loses fitting shorts. Overall the clothes where too big for my small frame so didn't quite hang on my body as they should have. The top exposed my right shoulder and the shorts were almost falling off of my body entirely as I went to stand after climbing off of the large bed that felt as if it where made from the softest clouds in the summer sky. The shorts didn't have a draw string or anything else of the sort so I eventually gave up and left them to do as they liked, luckily the tshirt was long enough to cover me even if the shorts fell down.

Hope you enjoyed!

Sorry for the wait, so here is a classic wardrobe malfunction for consumption. :)
