The King And His Fox

chp 5

Hollows pov (now)
The sun hurt my eyes when they took the cloth shill over my head as my blurry vision adjusted I saw the man supposdivly was the man who silence the noise of people the man who owned everything in the country we live in the king of Sigrid king Mathew the rumors of him we're no lie his eyes sharp and red like fire crimson and hair li red blood his aura gave off a intemadating vibe like he could kill a man with his bare hands and let me say for human that's scary.
He walked slowly to the trader and handed him money and then slowly turned to me his face was calm but serious.

Mathew-"ok little fox your now apart of my household I hope you can not disobey me"

I said no words scared he would kill me I did not trust that smile on his face and did not care for his household he wanted me to join all I wanted was to end my life this all was too much and I fell worse then when I was a slave for him.

He grabbed my hand gentliy as he lead me to the carriage with the biggest grin on his face like had just one a prize at a festival. It supprised me but it probably was a show humans and higher ups are all the same. Once we got in the carriage I noticed a man about the same height as the king with brown eyes and curly hair wrapped in a neat bun on the back of his head and two floppy ears on his head.

Ed-"my..lord is that a??"

Mathew-"yep Ed it's a genuine foxman and he is going to be the newest member of the household!"

Ed-"but my lord  he looks like ..."

Mathew-"yes no training and yes unhealthy but we can changed that ok"

Ed-"ugh you are so frustrating"

I sat there peering at the two men argue back and forth on if I were staying or not it seemed idiotic to me that to adult men of clear high stature argued like a bunch of children . I stared zoning out until we arived at the gate of the castle the building was lined with crimson and gold and had layers of tall stone walls and towers lineing the whole thing the gate shown two golden tigers fighting imbedded in the gates lineing.

I was speachless seeing it for the first time I had heard storys of the castle in sigrd but never expected this marvel of a building.

Mathew-"you awake there foxman?"

He waved his hand infront of me trying to knock me from my daze  as he did him and Ed left the carriage to walk in to the castle leaving me with two servants in suits holding my chains trying to lead me.

I entered the large hall not far from the king and Ed we entered the throne room we're the king then sat giving one order to me.

Mathew-"neil"

I did so but questioned why in my head was I going to be tortured was I being banished or worse being a maid it sent shivers down my spine on the  last one. The king dropped his cape from his sholders and picked up a long silver sword from his maid he walked slowly to me I shivered I fear but knew it was for the best to die I was going to do it any way. He stopped dead in front of me I looked at him expecting a hateful look but I saw a serious but joyful look plastered on his face. What was happening? What was this reason on buying if not to touture or use me just kill me!KILL MEE!!!

Mathew-"I've been waiting to do this  to the perfect servant and I believe your a perfect fit sir foxman"

Ed-"sir wait you don't mean he's useless you can't be."

Mathew-"I know who I want it to be Ed I am ruler of this kingdom so please don't defy my rule ok"

Ed-"sorry my lord"

The king the bowed his head shock filled my mind as he raised the sword up to me rimmed with writing and prayers and the holy writing a of humans of the land and a holy covered with roses.

Mathew-"I Mathew king of Sigrid make you my squire and knight and the highest servant of the land of Sigrid.

Hollow-"what the fuck!!!???"

The king stunned by the sudden words and voice coming from the fox infront of him then started laughing hysterically as poor hollow sat there confused as to what his normal but scary life had come to.
