Silhouette in Darkness [Mr_Sir x TakodaVega]

[TakodaVega]

Ever since she had been a kitten she had been trained for this day. Who knew that time would fly by so fast as she curled up in the bed of her Trainer's room. Her sole purpose was to please her new Master in whatever form it might be. From sex to cooking, to literature and any other sort of entertainment. A chill passed over the amurjin as she curled her tail closer to her.

After some 'research' from the other 'Masters' to deem what she exactly was she was sent here. Bought to be some prize for a man who was too young to enjoy at the time what she would have to offer. Puberty for the Amurjin was different than most. Like most humans, the amurjin sported skin, a pair of C breasts that offered to be a good handful to hold, and feminine curves over her hips. Her body was toned, not overtly so to detract away from the female's natural beauty however.

Blue hues blinked open in the bright light of the room as she heard the jingle of the food bell. This would be her last meal until she saw her new Master. A Master whom she didn't even know what he looked like, let alone his name other than, 'Master'. Devan, her trainer, had finally let slip his name over the years during a training session to teach her to call him only 'Trainer'. However there were times were that didn't stick.

She knew that after her breakfast she would be escorted to the baths, and 'dressed' for the occasion. Whatever that meant she didn't know other than the fact she was already introduced to the carrier that would take her from Devan's home to her new permanent one. Uncurling herself from the bed to make her way to the table she sat on her knees and waited patiently as Devan served her pieces of fish and grapes, to keep her appetite in check before placing on the leash and collar and leading her outside. She was allowed to walk on two legs, which now brought new looks to her figure.

Ebony stripes trailed down from her neck down along her back to her tail, the stripes curving over her sides leaving her belly bare, much like her feral cousins. The dark triangles sported on the top of her head had white spots on the back of each one. While Devan led her further through the house, the amurijin looked down as was befitting her rank, her feline tail occasionally swaying behind her.

She was different from most, they soon discovered that like her anthro and feral cousins the amurjin sported 'heat' cycles rather than the normal periods human women went through. Whether or not she was able to carry offspring however was not her or Devan's decision to decide. Rather the Master, having followed his instructions to the letter and leaving the amurjin untouched and only educated to pleasure. He was rather thorough on his education with the female however.

Afterall the female would soon be the Master's prize to do with as he wished. Leading her into the bath house, Devan soon placed her in the shower stall turning on the faucets to bathe the female before hand. Today was her day to be pampered until she was put into her cage. He let his hands be gentle, making sure every inch of her was scrubbed down and clean, her long ebony hair free of any knots of tangles that might have occurred in her sleep. She sat perfectly still as Devan washed her, behaving as she was told. Normally would bathe alone, left to her own devices in case her Master wished to allow her that form of independence.

Once dry, brushed and combed, Devan patted her on the head and sat her on the pillows and pulled out the ruby ribbon,wrapping it around her throat first the front down between her thighs to hide her slit from view before crossing the two strands behind her back, a simple cross nothing tied as she slowly brought the two halves together to tie a bow in the front. The amurjin eyed the bow, purring softly up at him as he chuckled before picking up the amurjin and depositing her into her cage, the cage itself gave her enough room to curl up in case it was long before the Master made his appearance or to doze while they travelled.

Sleep she did, for the next thing she knew she was sitting in the middle of a bedroom floor, still in her cage. However there was some sort cover over top of her cage, save for a very minute slit near the lock to let her see everything. Movement occurred throughout the house as she perked her ears, ever so slightly, listening for when the door would creek open and she would truly meet her Master. Maybe he would give her a name.

[Mr_Sir]

Ophiophagus was slithering through the area slowly, on his way back from his shift on watch now. The naga regularly took extra shifts on guard duty, despite his position as captain of the Duke's personal guard. Though of course that extra service was part of why he was in his position, that and saving the Duke's life on a number of occasions. It had earned him many privileges, though few of them he used he served out of loyalty to the Duke for saving his own life so long ago. He could still remember being bought out of the arena slave pits the day before he was to face five wild animals at once, a punishment for refusing to kill an opponent who happened to be a long time friend of his. He was the best in the arena, but even he had his limits. Thankfully the Duke had been looking for a new guard since he would be having a son soon, and the naga's tenacity had caught the man's eye.

There had been quite a bit of commotion in the keep that day, it seemed a new shipment of slaves were being brought in. Normally Ophio wouldn't stand for such given his background, but the Duke at least had proven to treat his slaves even as people, and give them what they needed to survive. Most free peasants in the kingdom didn't have life so good. If only the Duke's son treated his personal property so well. The young man having gained his own personal servant who he abused regularly. It hurt the naga's heart to see it, but sadly he had no real say in such matters, he could only try to convince the Duke to teach the boy better. His shift was over now, and so he could return to his quarters to rest for the day and ready himself for his next day of work.

Pulling his personal key from the ring about his belt, he would place the key in the door only to find it unlocked. Odd, he could have sworn he had locked it behind him. The only other people who had keys were the Duke himself, and some of the servants of the place. Still, instinct kicked in as his hand went to the blade at his side. He would open the door slowly, pushing it ahead of him so that he couldn't get attacked without enough room to defend himself. The naga's hood was too wide to go through too small of an opening anyway. Golden eyes would slowly scan over the room, and then brow ridge quirked in curiosity as he noted a covered box or cage sitting in the middle of the room. He would tilt his head, moving over to it to pick up the note sitting atop it with a key.

'A gift for my best guard.' The note had read, Ophio confused but smiling. The Duke often tried to give Ophio gifts, and he appreciated them, but most of them went unused as they were often too gaudy for his own personal tastes. He would pick up the key along with it, tilting his head as he looked it over with a shrug. Then after a few moments grabbing the sheet and pulling it off. The naga then standing there with his mouth hanging open a bit. This was his gift, a female? He was unaware that he had gained such a high station in the Duke's eyes to deserve his own personal servant. He shook his head a bit, a hiss coming from him as he would examine the female and spoke with a hiss.

"Well, thiss isss an interesssting find."

[TakodaVega]

The distinct scale pattern, as well as the glint of a blade caught the amurjin's eye first through her makeshift peephole causing her feline ears to flick backwards, slightly skittish of this entrance. He didn't mean to hurt her did he? The shadow that cast down from the light of the room revealed that her Master was...big. Very big. Which wasn't what she had been expecting considering her training with Devan. However she remembered all that training she was put through.

She sat slightly curled up in the cage at the Naga's feet as the cloth was pulled away to reveal her to him, she perked her feline ears noting his slightly stunned gaze. Tilting her head to one side, she had never really seen a Naga up so close before, save for the guards who patrolled the facility where she had been trained at but even then they were not as big as the one right in front of her. She could see the hood along the sides of him as she carefully made her way a little edge of the cage. Some of the loose strands of her black hair fell from over her shoulders at the movement.

His hissing voice however sent a shiver down her back, though not one out of fear, or pleasure. More the anticipation as she wrapped her hands around the bars of the cage. "Master?" Came her calm, soft voice from within the confines. Those blue eyes met his yellow ones before she promptly looked down, remembering that she wasn't supposed to look at a Master's eyes without permission first. But it was much harder to judge the expression on a Naga face versus a human one. Coiling her feline tail around her knees, she waited until he decided to open her cage, only once he had would she move out and remain at his coils.

The Amurjin remained still, though she wanted to draw closer to the Naga himself for heat reasons, without the cloth of the cage to insulate her, she could feel a nip in the air around her. Just by her actions, one could tell she had been trained well. Very well, to serve her purpose as to what her Master deemed that to be she was unsure.

[Mr_Sir]

The naga would look a bit more confused as she spoke, that was something he certainly had never been called before. He would give a sigh, confused for a time at the odd situation. He noted her posture, the way she moved, her tone of voice...she had been trained by quite the professional. Maybe there was a mistake and she had been meant for someone else. But how would one explain the note then? It wasn't that he didn't appreciate the gift from his Duke, just he did not think he had earned such a prize. Her training already suggested someone groomed to serve royalty, yet she was being given to one who used to be a slave himself. He would note her drawing nearer, giving a sigh before showing her a warm smile.

"I do guesss that iss the cassse. Come on then, we will get you out of that cage. If you're to be my pet then I will have you out of that pen ssso long assss you can behave." He would move to unlock the cage, opening it slowly as he stayed close to it. Coiling more tightly so that he could lower himself down a bit to look more directly at the female. Warm smile still on his features, or at least as warm as a look from a naga can be. He would hold one of his scaled hands down, and if she approached moving it to brush a bit of hair out of her face before running fingers through her hair slowly. She was a fetching little thing, it was such an honor that his Duke had bestowed upon him. The best way he could show his appreciation for such would be to take proper care of her.

"You must be hungry after your journey. I'll have you treated to your favorite food if you will tell me it. I am sssure thisss musst be quite a day for you. Besst that you remember it fondly. Tell me, have you a name yet?" He would tilt his head, waiting for her response as his hand would move to lightly scratch just behind one of her ears. He was still in a bit of shock at the appearance of the gift in his room, but was certainly not complaining. He was not certain if she had been meant for anyone else, but she would definitely be well taken care of as his own pet. "If you have any quesstionss of me, now would be the time to assk them."

[TakodaVega]

The Amurjin tilted her head to one side, slightly worried that her new Master wasn't happy with her already. That wouldn't be good on her training, not one bit. "Yes, Master," she said softly her feline ears perked though relaxing as the cage opened up and she could finally slip free only to be greeted by him more on her level. One of her ears flicked back before perking back forward. Now that he was on her level, it was hard to avoid his gaze, as she remained still knowing he was looking her over. The ribbon still stood out against her skin though as she sat in front of him she felt like she was a treasure of some sort.

Those blue eyes became half lidded though when he started to touch along her hair, purring ever so softly though her attention was focused on the Naga in front of her, her Master. It was how it should be, she had been worried that she would displease him and he would not want anything to do with her. "A little bit, Master," she admitted, her eyes opening up a bit. What did she like to eat? She thought about this a moment though the gentle scratches at her ear brought a shiver down her back and a louder purr that had been recently. She quietly snapped her brain from the pleasure though as she thought about his questions to her.

"I am not picky as to what to eat, Master, no one food is truly my favorite so to speak." She was a little uncomfortable with that thought, but she continued on with his questions. "I do not, I am whomever my Master wishes me to be. So long as he'll have me." She coiled that feline tail of hers around her knees as she thought to herself, questions she had plenty of, and this was the first time that a Master had really allowed her to speak her mind. "I have a few," she said carefully looking up at him with those blue hues, her eyes had a slight feline look to them, "Is there anything you wish me to call you other than Master? Is there anything you wish for me to do? Is there places I can't touch you?" She covered her mouth at that, "S-sorry, I didn- I mean." She looked down and a blush stained her cheeks. "I just don't want to make you angry by accident..."

[Mr_Sir]

Ophio would smile at the smaller female's reactions to his touch, he nodded at her response to his words. Thinking for a few moments as he would sit there coiled down with her sitting next to him. She was a beautiful little creature, he wasn't certain of her breeding, or the full extent of her training. However one could already tell that she was trained to serve and be respectful. Continuing to lightly scritch near one of her ears. His other hand moving now to her shoulder, letting it run down the side of the female's form as he would listen to her words now. "We will have to get you something then. I will have one of the sservantss bring  you something sshortly."

It was a little amusing that she was clad in only a ribbon, though he understood it showed she was a gift. It also did do its job of allowing the female to be quite alluring as was surely intended. Scaled palm still exploring her form a bit, tracing over her curves as he got an idea of what his new possession was in all of her aspects. He listened to the questions she had, nothing out of the ordinary for a servant to think about. As she panicked though, he would smile and speak softly to her.

"Shh, calm yourssself my pet. Nothing for you to worry about, I ssaid you could ask questions. Though what you have assked so far we will just have to figure out in time.  Other than where you may or may not touch me, that  there really is no limit on. Though it would be besst to assk permissssion before doing anything that you are unssure of. But nothing to worry yourself about, I am not angry in the least." He smiled, even venturing to lean down and place a tiny kiss upon her forehead. It was obvious that she was nervous and only wanted to please. She was going to make a fine pet, he would have to make sure to thank the Duke later for such a prize being given to him.

"I will have to think of a name for you once I have gotten to know more about your perssonality though. A name iss a very important thing in my own opinion, so I want to make sure you will be called ssomething fitting." He would move to start uncoiling, his hands pulling away from her for the time being as he would move to stand. "If you're a bit chilly you may curl up under the sheet on the bed there. Keep the ribbon on for now, but I need nothing at the moment." He would start to head for the door, giving the young pet a smile before opening it and looking for a servant nearby he could get a hold of. He wasn't going to send her off by herself when she was still new to the place, not to mention he did want some time to get to know his new prize.

[TakodaVega]

She had been rather content to let him scritch and speak to her. The hisses becoming more reassuring to her than anything. She knew that the first few days with her Master would act like as a pact between them, the bond that would last a lifetime, so long as he did not break one of the Core rules that every Slave of her kind had been taught. Granted from the way he treated her she wouldn't be forced to so harsh a name. Though when his touch spread to follow along the line of her curves she couldn't help but shiver.

Though his palm was slightly rough from what she could assume was his swordplay, it was gentle to her skin, or what what she could feel beneath the ribbon. It was his gentle voice of reassurance though that had brought those blue eyes up once more and those feline ears perked from their tucked their positions. She was slightly giddy with relief, she really didn't want to put her Trainer's training to shame, or anger her Master in the least. What caught her offguard was the gentle, almost affectionate kiss on her forehead. Any anxiety she had was quickly melted away. "Yes, Master," came her voice, coated with her purr.

Now that the tension was oozing out of her and she was starting to relax, she started to think more clearly. When he mentioned a bed, she blinked before looking around now that she had the full view of the room. Weaponry adorned the walls, though hopefully not many of them would be used on her. Then she noticed the bed. Definitely big enough for a Naga her Master's size to curl up in. She wondered how he did sleep, though she tucked that away for later. With the warmth of her Master's hands gone she rose to her feet. Despite being confined to a cage for several hours she moved with practice ease to the bed.

She thought a moment before curling up at the foot of the bed, closest to him, not quite diving under the sheet just yet as she watched him move. She was as curious about him as ever. However there was something about his hood that caught her attention. She lightly nipped at her thumb in thought. She wanted, of course, to touch and see if it felt differently considering the way the scales seemed to stretch and flatten. However at this point she was unsure, even though he gave her permission to, how to phrase such an act.
