She looked at him hopefully. “food?” she almost lifted her nose in the air to smell for some. She tilted her head to the side and waited for him to reply or lead the way or something all she new was she wanted food.

********

“nope, that’s it” he said smiling as food was brought out. It was set on the table and the cook left without a word. Daemon waved his hand toward the food. “go ahead”

Hijo nodded."okay food first then bayj",he then orderd a maid to come and asked her kindly to make up a meal.Then noded." now all we half to do is wait"

Yukina blinked and looked at the food then looked at the food.Then at him."thank you",she said with a smiled then slowly started eating.

Aurora nodded not quite sure what to do or what her ‘master’ had in mind for her. she shook at an idea, what if he… she shivered. It didn’t really mater as soon as she had some food in her and the side affects of the tranquilizers were gone she would get him to let her go or at the very least give her back to the slavers. Sooner or later they would deem her un-trainable and they would be done with her.

She was to stubborn to give in to what they were trying to do to her. she thought persistently. Her stance shifted slightly as the side affects of the tranquilizers wore off. She now stood straight up and her eyesight became sharp.

***********

he watched her eat. After a little while he called in one of his servants and had the middle aged woman show Yukina where her sleeping quarters would be as well as where a bath could be had. He stood up and looked down at yukina before she was pulled out of the room.

“its getting late I will have lynn show you around and then you can get settled into your room” he then winked at her. “I may seem lax but I am most certainly not, so if you think of running…. Well I will catch you” he smirked at her “have a good night” he then turned and left the room.

Yukina looked up at Daemon.she would never think of running away.She was nearl killed.Shivering slightly she looked at Lynn."uh, h-hello"

Hijo looked at her and blinked."you okay?",he asked curiously.

Aurora smirked “oh yes” she said quite confidently. She was capable of holding her own now and she felt assured by that. but she wasn’t foolish to think she could get away that easy she would have to wait until his guard was down.

*********

“hello” lynn said kindly if you’ll please follow me I can give you a quick tour of the house then we can head to our rooms.

Yukina nodded and stood up as she followed her around,looking at the rooms.

Kimaru smiled."good",he said then smiled as the food came."well lets eat",he said hapily.

Aurora eyed the food hungrily she wanted to dive right in and eat but she wasn’t to sure how her new ‘master’ would feel about that. she didn’t know if her was the kind of person that would have to have the first bit before anyone else could eat but he had said ‘lets eat’ she reasoned. So hesitantly she approached the food. She sniffed it and her mouth began to water, she couldn’t hold back any longer. She started to eat hungrily.

******

after lynn had shown her around the large home she brought her to the slave quarters. She opened a door and showed her in. “this will be your room” she turned to point to the door across the hall. “and that is my room if you have any questions do not be afraid to ask” she then turned to point to the back of the hall. “and down there is the bathrooms there’s at least 4 of them all in the same area so theirs not much fighting over who gets a bath first” lynn then entered Yukina’s room and pointed to a dresser. “There are some basic work cloths in there for now until you are fitted into new cloths.”

Kimaru watched her for a momwnt then getting his food he soon began to eat.

Yukina looked around and memorized everything just in cace.Then , she nodded."alright",she said softly."thank you"

Aurora wolfed down her food quickly but soon regretted it when it made her feel queasy. So she stopped momentarily to catch her breath before starting again more slowly. She watched him through predatory eyes knowing he wasn’t going to take her food yet unwilling to stop herself from looking at him that way. she was just so damn hungry. When she finished her meal she gave a content sigh and pushed her plate away.

*******

lynn nodded then bit the girl a good night before she left the room turning around when she reached the door. “ill see you in the morning dear then we can get stared out our chores.” The woman smiled at her then left the girl to her own devises. She hadn’t mentioned that the door leading into this hallway was always locked. So though the slaves could move freely amongst themselves and the bathrooms they could not leave that little area.

Kimaru smiled at her."did you enjoy the food?",he asked calmly.

Yukina looked around, putting confertable clothse on she jumped into the bed."it felt to good,..so soft andwarrm , in a mader of moments she was sound asleep.

((wait… wasn’t your guys name hijo? XD))

Aurora nodded not quite sure what to do with herself she felt like she should be acting out or doing something that could get her tossed out the door. But this male seemed to laid back it made her slightly on edge after dealing with the slave traders for so long. She wasn’t sure how to act. So instead of being destructive she kept quiet hoping to curve whatever interest he had saw in her.

*******

Daemon walked through the halls of his large home inspecting all the locks. He made his way past the slave quarters and stared at the door for a few short moments letting his mind wonder to his newest slave. She seemed…. different from the rest though he couldn’t put his finger on it. he then turned and made his way to his own chambers.

(WOOPS sorry)

Hijo smiled then nodded."good .. now alow me to show you to your room and yuor own bathroom...."

Yukina was sound asleep then she started haveing a nightmare.It was her first master , he had taken her in to be his personal serevnt, she never got a chance to reast and she had to sleep in a shead out in the back yard , wiitch was heavely guarded.she was about seven at the time. One night she axedently said the word but and the master went balistic , he had beaten her for 5 hous straight ... .Hearing a loud crack of thunder Yukina let out a semi loud scream and sat up in bed breathing heavaly.

((^-^ its ok don’t worry about it))

“I…I get my own bathroom?” she asked unbelievingly. This was her first master after all she wasn’t sure how this whole thing worked… except that she was supposed to do everything her asked… fat chance…. or she’d be punished. But having her own bathroom? And he had said room she know he had so did that mean no bars? She wasn’t sure if she was happy well she was it just felt odd being happy about having things she used to have in a free life.

******

Daemon was almost to his quarters when his keen hearing picked up on a feminine scream. Fiercely protective of what he considered his he bolted toward where the sound had come from. Ending up at the slave quarters he unlocked the door and darted to yukina’s room with inhuman speed.

He slipped inside her room and scanned the room using all of his keen senses. Other then her it was void of life. He let himself momentarily relax. He then looked at the woman that was still breathing heavily and her looks as well as her scent screamed of fear and he did not like that in a female. He went to approach her to give some form of comfort then stopped. He was never sure with new slaves how they would react to such a touch.

So instead he approached her slowly and lifted his arm with deliberate movements so she knew he meant no harm. He then rested it on her shoulder. “are you ok?” he asked with a gentle voice then still held some firmness in it.

Hijo smiled.'yes .. i beleave in privacey , so you get your own room and bathroom...",he said with a smile .


Yukina jumped slightly and looked at him."y-yeah ...j-just a b-bad dream",she said letting her heart beat slow down.

Aurora looked at him as if he’d grown two heads. What could she possibly say to that? especially after the way the slavers had treated her. so she just stood there feeling slightly awkward in this kind of situation. Did she ask him to lead the way? or did she just stay quiet and still until he moved on his own?

******

Daemon nodded and rubbed his hand on her lower back in small circular movements. It was common with newer slaves, that when they were brought to a new home they would have nightmares. He sat down on the edge of her bed and listened contently until her heart beat began to slow. He then removed his hand from her back and stood up. He was sure she’d be fine until morning. But just in case… he put his hand against the wall. his home had already had his energy into it. but he figured a little more in her room would help her to feel safer. almost give her the feeling of a shield of sorts.

When he was done he bid her a goodnight and left the slave quarters and headed back to his rooms.

She nodded in response to him but she wasn’t sure why he was being so lenient… nice even. Wasn’t he her new ‘Master?’ maybe he was just a different kind of Master she reasoned. She paused in her musings however when he made a comment about her running away. Aurora huffed at that, catch her again? She’d be damned if she was caught again that was for sure.

“umm sure” she spoke she was used to speaking out amongst the slavers well because she enjoyed being a huge pain in the but for them but she wasn’t so sure with this male if she should act that way. “lead the way?” she asked hesitantly she didn’t exactly like being thrown off stride but she figured once she knew her new Master better he wouldn’t be able to do that.

Aurora raised an eyebrow at him. “you did by me right?? I am a slave right” she said sarcastically she then looked herself up and down making sure she was still solid. “what did I die and go to heaven” she muttered softly to herself. she had thought she had been bought for well… something else. She hadn’t expected to have the freedom she was being given. Slightly relieved by the thought she looked up to watch him.

*********
((time skip…))

Daemon woke up early the next morning. Heading down to the dinning room for his breakfast he was greeted by slaves that had already been up for an hour. When he made it he sat at the table and gave his cook his order. He then sent for Yukina.

Hijo smiled."yes i sis buy you .. but not to be my slave ... i buy slaves take care of them for a little while , get them back to full heath then i let them go on thier way if they like .. or they can stay here if they wish it .... but most of them leave so it does get lonely at times ..",he said sadly but smiled."but im always glad that im able to hlp them..."

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

Yukina was wide awake and looking at the different work clothse she was to ware. She smiled as she pulled out a work stly kimono.It was very beautiful. Withe a bright smile she put it on .As she did so she looked at her back.There was a long scar running from the tip of her back to the bottom of it.She frowned at the sight of then finished puttng the kimono on.By the time she had finished putting it on someone was at her door.When he answerd it she was notified that Daemon wanted her so she quickly went to the dineing room and entering she bowed at Daemon and said,"good morning master Daemon , "

Wow that was unexpected. She had thought she would have to fight and claw to get her freedom but he was just going to give it to her. she felt a weight lift off her shoulders but she couldn’t help but feel out of place. So she turned to him and bowed her head slightly, her body a little stiff, as she gave him a soft “thank you”

She was unused to the action… showing respect that is to a… well she wasn’t sure what to call him. he wasn’t a slaver and he didn’t act like he wanted to be a master so what could she classify him as? Her face set in a frown as she thought about this. Shaking the thought aside she asked if she could leave to so that she may take a bath hoping that she would be able to fine a name for him.

**********

Daemon smiled warmly when he saw her. she was wearing a kimono that looked wonderful on her. “good morning” he replied to her then waved to the seat next to his. “come sit” he kept his eyes on her as she moved.

Hijo nodded."of cource you can , i'll be in the liveing room if you need anything",he then looked at her.'and you can call me Hijo"

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

Yukina blushed as she sat beside him."a-as you wish master Daemon",she said with a bow.

Aurora nodded as she took in his name so his name was Hijo. At least she had something to call him now she mused. She turned and made her way around the hall that he had indicated was hers. It took her a moment but she found a room that she was pretty sure was hers. She pulled out some fresh clothes and then headed out to search for the bathroom.

**********

He smiled as she sat down. “I want you to have breakfast with me and then after that ill let you get back to your chores” he reached out and brushed a strand of hair away from her cheek. “how did you sleep?”

Hijo sighed as he sat doen in his liveing room.She would leave most likely they all did.A house as big as his did get pretty lonely.

Blinkeding Yukina nodded."as you wish"

After a nice long shower Aurora dressed into a tight fitting black shirt with loose pants. It was one of the few things she had found in the dresser that would be easy to move around in without worrying about what her movements would do to the fabric, like a skirt. She was sure she wouldn’t be running or doing anything that would cause anything ‘bad’ to happen but she wanted to be sure. The last thing she needed was for her skirt to rip or for it to fly up…. gods that would be embarrassing.

Moving out of the bathroom she made her way slowly around Hijo’s large home. Finally finding him she entered the room a little unsure of herself. she still felt as if she should be fighting this male but she knew better.

**********

After a few short minutes breakfast was brought out. He passed her a plate and began filling his own. He wanted her to get used to him so he figured this would probably have to be a routine from now on. Which he didn’t mind. there was something calming about her presence. He looked at her from the corner of his eye and took in her figure… she wasn’t to bad to look at ether. Pushing that thought aside quickly he started to eat.
