------------------------------------------------------

I never thought a person could feel fascinated and completely terrified by the same thing. The being in front of me proved me wrong.

His skin was a dark shade of grey. His eyes where yellow and red, and his pupil looked like a gecko's pupil, long and thin with tiny circles. He basically had no nose bridge, and it only had one nostril. The lips were greenish and sharp like a razor blade.

I was petrified. I did not know what to think anymore. I always believed in the existence of other beings but having one, in flesh and bones, standing right before your very own eyes, was a complete different story.

He kept staring down at me, and if gaze could kill, I would be dead by now. « Apologize to your lord immediately before I will personally wipe away your futile existence ». His breath was heavy, and his hands were holding me so tightly that it stopped my blood from flowing correctly.

However, I was still so shocked and terrified that I could not speak any further. « Say it! » screamed the beast, his voice was so loud that the walls started to tremble, together with my unstable body.

« S-sorry » was all I managed to say, or better, to whisper. I felt so pathetic for acting all tough and brave, and now I was to the point were I couldn't even say a word without quivering.

« Louder, you ungrateful human. The lord did not hear you ». As I looked over, I noticed the "lord" looking at me with a very entertained expression. Naturally, he was enjoying this situation, seeing me looking so weak and hopeless made him feel even superior. For some idiotic reasons, that look unleashed the rage inside me once more. I knew I had to keep my mouth shut and just do as they pleased but unfortunately for them, I was one little hot headed idiot.

« I can't » I said as I looked at him straight in the eyes « I am not sorry for what I've done ».

« Then you will pay for it » as the guard said that, a punch right in the stomach made me loose my breath. I am pretty sure that he broke one or two ribs with that. If it wasn't for the beast holding me up straight, I would've fallen to the ground. Trying to grasp for air, the pain was sharp and shot up throughout my entire body. Even if it was unbearable, I was determined to not lower my defense. That's how my father raised me after all ...

« My little human is trying to look valiant and fearless, but all I see is a fragile figure whose about to break down at any moment now » the guy finally spoke after being a viewer all this time « I had enough of this little show. Take her to her quarters »

« As you wish, lord commander ». The other guard who was just standing next to us came closer and took me by one arm. As they started to take me out of the room, the mysterious guy waved at them, ordering to stop.

He came closer to me and whispered « My name is Hyourin Clepton Varian IV, but for you is Lord Hyourin, understood? ». His eyes were trying to find mines but I knew that if I looked at him, I might have not been able to find a way out of his icy lagoons, and end up surrendering myself entirely.

« You will never be my lord » I said, as stoic as I could, but it probably sounded like a scared puppy trying to fend off a hungry tiger.

« We will see about that, Yelena Pryor ». He smiled again, a twisted smile showing that he knew I would eventually submit to his will. At the sound of my name escaping from his lips, shivers traveled down my whole body and a blush was trying to creep on my face, one more reason for me to keep my head down. I felt stupid and pathetic for my body to react that way at the only sound of him pronouncing my name « Do not take her to the sanatorium, that's an order » and with that, he just walked away. As he positioned himself in the middle of the room once more, a hole formed and a guard came out. So there was an exit, a chance for me to get out of there but I failed... this time.
