Chapter 3 : The transmuted

Kite wakes up breathing heavily. Her only view was a dark brown coloured roof , she wonders where she was as she feels sick and her body hurts all over as she struggles to move.

"Where am i , what happened !!?", she speaks to herself softly as she struggles to wake up. Her hands pushing her body up against the table filled with blood. Her hair feels wet and sticky so does her eyelids and brows.

Getting up glancing at the room , feeling scared and confused , she holds herself feeling the cold fingers on her own skin , taken away by her own cold touch she looks down her naked body and finds stitches  and cut marks all over  her abdomen and left chest below her breast.

Shocked and scared , breathing heavily and trying to think , all she could ever remember was darkness , as tears fills her eyes and about to cry , she feels a zing in her thorax .

Her hands feels a stitched marks on her throat as she feels what was in her throat.

Suddenly she startles hearing a clink,  a sound of a steel piece falling down next to her , she looks to her left and finds Lord Den lying his back on the wall , asleep , with only a source of warmth from the torch just above him. Noticing a knife dropping from his wet , pale fingers and wet arms and his hat lying next to him , Kite cautiously gets up shivering as she covers her breasts with her arms.

Her body hurting in every move she makes ,  she looks around and finds a dark cave entrance leading somewhere , but she could not dare to enter there as she was scared of it.

Though she wanted to run away , she knew she would not survive , though she knew waking up Lord Den was a risk , she took the chance of survival as she walks up to him , stepping upon a wet floor filled with blood and shredded clothes .

"My... lord!?", Kite stutters in her every word as she tries to wake up Den by her soft voice. Her voice echoing into deaf ears , she gathers her strength and touches Den on his shoulder as she apologises softly ," forgive me my lord , i know the penalty of forcing a lord is death , but... please forgive me my lord!".

She shakes Den on his shoulders trying to wake him up with her pressed eyes , asking forgiveness in her mind , suddenly Den's back slides right from the wall and falls on the wet floor as Kite startles and stares at him with her shocked eyes as she guesses that he had fever and passed out.

"Gather yourself together !!! Kite!! Your lord is in danger!!! Do your duty!!", Kite encourages herself as she gathers up her strengths . Her instincts makes her look at the corner of the wall , noticing a small sign on the wall , she quickly remembers entering this room from that direction , which led to Dens study room.

Grabbing Den's shoulder , she picks him up , to her surprise , stunned by her tremendous strength to be able to pick up a man with ease , she hold him by his shoulders , keeping aside whatever she thought , she walks up towards the wall carrying Lord Den on her shoulders , leaving footprints of blood , she walks out the wall which mysteriously opens sensing its conjurers presence.

Entering Dens bedroom , from his study , Kite notices a furnace used for heating up the room , at the end of his room , laying Den in his bed and covering him up with blankets , she rushes up puts on Den's shirt and wearing a blanket , she heats up the furnace and boils the water , in a huge iron bucket she found in Den's bathroom.

Filling up the silver tub with warm water in the bathroom , she undress Den's clothes trying not to notice his half naked body , she places his cold pale body in the warm tub . Folding the sleeves off her lower arms , she grabs a white towel and wipes his pale white skin as drenched blood drips into the warm silver tub.

Waking and focusing his vision , Den notices himself in a lukewarm tub filled with slightly red water . Noticing himself in his bathroom , he guesses that Kite had helped him there and smiles as he gets up from his tub , feeling a little colder and dizziness , he grabs a towel and wraps his hips , covering his under parts.

Walking out his toilet , he finds Kite warped up in a blanket , wearing his shirt and dozed off in a chair , warming in a burned off ashes of  embers.

Walking up towards her , he grabs her in his arms and places her on his bed and cover her up in his blanket. Yawning and relieving himself , he dresses himself up and goes back to the experiment room and grabs the sheet of paper , half drenched with blood , on the table Kite was placed.

He goes back to his study room and studies another sheets of papers , grabbing his quill pen and scribbles down letters on it.

As an hour passes by , Kite wakes up startled finding herself in Den's bed , she walks out the opened door and finds Den working in the afternoon sunlight.

'You're awake!?", Den murmurs as he keeps on writing on his sheet. Kite walks front with only a white shirt half naked as the length of the shirt lengths till her thighs covering her privates.

"My lord ... i apologise if i had troubled you ... ," Kite apologises for her later actions as Den quickly replies ," you helped me , theres nothing to apologize for!".

Kite stutters about to ask about her stitches as Den answers still focusing on his writing ," yes ... about the stitches on your body... I've experimented on you , and you've successfully made it !".

"I was able to carry you! My lord , that shouldn't have been possible... what do you mean by experiment , my lord!", Kite asks as she was desperate to find out but Den was quick to answer standing up ," I've killed hundreds of people , everyone had different kinds of Aest , and as a mage i was successful in transmuting all of those Aest within you , i never thought these was possible , it took years and years of studies and research. But it was possible! ".

Kite startle as she speaks confused ,"its weird that i'm able to understand whatever you've said! My lord... what's going on !?", Den quickly replies as he grabs that half drenched in blood ,sheet and shows it to Kite excitedly replying ," yes yes ! If i'm correct you have even gained knowledge far superior then that of normal people... you're a more of an Hybrid type Aest but much more then that..  and we will have to find out in time!!".

Kite startle and shakes out of anxiety as Den stares at his creation smiling , he comes up towards her and hugs her slowly as she feels shocked and surprised  and wonders what was happening.

"My lord!?", Kite whispers as Den replies ", yes I'm your lord, Kite !!". Den pauses and continues ," will you protect me?? From any danger that may pose against me , stand by me whatever happens and no matter what... never abandon your lord... I'll be your family ".
 
Kite startle with her teary eyes and she swears though she was confused about everything ," i will my lord !! I promise..! ". Den smiles ,kissing her neck just below the stitches on her neck.

It was obvious , Den had trapped Kite in his fake emotional words. Gaining her favour , as she had more power he could ever have guessed. Will Kite free herself realising his traps or will she be trapped under his strings.
