Laurence sits next to me and i snuggle against him for warmth.
"Aphmau...I'm really sorry for everything that has happened. I've caused you so much trouble and I feel discpuraged everytime I think of what I've done to you. Ever since I met you I cou...
(Aphmaus POV) I start searching the cell for a loose brick or maybe a hole, but nothing. This place is locked tight. I pull on the bars when I hear foot steps.....shoot. I dash to my bed and pretend to be asleep. I can hear my heart beat racing. I'll admit I'm a bit scared but, I can't let him see through me. "Get up." I'm surprised it's not Zane's voice. Its an O'kahsis guard. I nod and get out. My only way to get out is if I'm out of that cell. He opens the door and I push past him. I hear him yelling but I'm in tunnel vision. My brain is only focused on getting out. The way back home? I don't know. I'll figure it out. I run through a maze of halls and I see more guards join the chase. I see double doors and focus my attention there. I push through. I was right. I'm finally outside. I hear more yelling, but I don't care. Then I hear a slight whistle and a pain in my arm. Every thing blacks out.
(Zane's POV) (yay!) I hear some yelling down the hall. I get up and walk past my door. "What's going on!?" "Sorry for the interruption sir, but she's on the loose." I hear more yelling and stomps. I grab my coat and run outside (it's the early days of winter) I know my guards could do anything right now, I call out her name. I have to catch her before they do. "Aphmau!" i see her keep running. Why would she stop for me? I bring up my pace as fast as I can. I see an arrow. Dig into Aphmaus arm. I scream as she drops into the ground. No. My Irene....I see the guard smiling to himself proud. "What were you thinking!?" I yell. He looks down at my and then to the side ashamed, I run over as well as some other guards. She's out cold. I see the guards lift her. The start to carry her inside. That arrow was to close to her heart....let's hope it didn't puncture anything too vital. I run in and call a healer magicks.I see them take the arrow out carefully and I cringe. That stupid girl....what was she thinking? I scoff to myself as they wrap a clothe around her arm. "So?" I ask, intentfully. "Well. Shell live but, she's got a broken bone and some torn muscle. In going to have to stitch her up." I fidget with my sleeve cuff. "How long until she's healed?" I see her study the question. "Around a month?" my eyes grow wide. "A month!?!?" she nods. I rub my temple. Isn't this going swell. "Alright. I'll wait to see her wake up. I need a couple word with her." she furrows her brows. "B-but sir!" I stare at her and she walks out, "Please let her rest." then she scurried off. I sigh, the only way to keep these people in line is with fear. Sadly. I sit in a chair at the corner. I start to get sleepy and then I hear groan.
(Aphmau's POV) I cry out as a pain bolts into my arm. Tears prick my eyes. I place my hand on my arm and I grit my teeth in pain. Tears stream down my face in pain. I feel someone remove my hand from my arm and help my get up. I scream. They lean me against the wall. "Calm down." I hear a man's voice. Not any man's voice, Zane's voice. "Let go of me you monster!" I see his hands hover over my arm as pain washes over his face. He let's his arms drop by his side, then he drags a chair next to me. "What were you thinking?" he looks at me, cold serious. "What do you think? I was trying to get the heck out of here." a few more tears roll down my cheek. "Arrow dug into your arm. For being stupid." he sighs. "No. For being desperate." I snap back. He stares at me then his eyes soften. "You're going to have to stay here longer than planned." I laugh through my tears. "Just kill me, you dirty basta-" he gets up, making the chair squeak. I see him grip his arms to his side. He has his eyes closed. For some reason, I'm a lot more scared then I was. "Look." he lets out a breath. " I f I had a choice.....I .... I would have." he gulps. Liar. He takes a few seconds. Exhale and inhale. Then he looks at me. He crouched next to me. "I don't like it either, princess. But hey, I need you to be healthy." I growl at him and his snarl comes back. I hate him so much more than yesterday. So much, I want to kill him. (no! Zuzu!💗) He grabs my face. "Tough it out, darling." I whip my head out of his hand. Tears start uncontrollably stream down my face. "W-why?." I choke on my tears. He hand hovers and then he sits back down on the chair. He puts his head in his hands. I hear him sigh and he looks at me. He smiles. Genuinly? And leaves. Time skip I wake up my arm sore. I grit my teeth, it hurts like heck. I see a guard at my door and a letter on the chair. My guard will escort you to meet me. Please don't try anything stupid. Its better you not, you're in no condition. And pleases so for a shower and a new exchange of clothes. I asked for a set of clothes especially made for you. I crumble the letter in my hand. "Let's go." I demand.
Sorry that there isn't a story drawing, I couldn't think of anything 😅 Anywho, to make up for it I made a chibi drawing of flirty trashvis (travis)
