Visha

"Oh hell no," I muttered once my eyes finally focused.

Before me was an entire room filled with Masters, female masters of all things. It wasn't that hard to spot the difference between the two sexes, especially here where the women barely wore anything. Just little flimsy bits of fabric leaving absolutely nothing to the imagination.

Was I going to have to wear things like that?

Instead of tables and chairs that I was used to seeing, their were couches and chaise, covered in multiple different colors of pillows. Human servants fed them ranges of different fruit and breads while multiple guards that were stationed around the room. It looked so erotic and and any man would be filled with joy at finding this room.

I took a hesitant step backwards subconsciously preparing myself to run away from this perverted sight in front of me.
"Don't even think about it," A dark gruff voice said from behind me.

My eyes widened ever so slightly at the realization that this was definitely not Reginald standing behind me anymore. No it was the reason I was standing here right now, the Emperor was standing directly behind me. I just can't see to catch a break anymore these days...

"Hello little bird," He greets again only louder this time clearly wanting to make his presence known, the entire room turns in our direction and bows their heads.

"Hello your Majesty," I squeak out not nearly awake enough for this particular situation. I mean I knew I would have to face him eventually but I dint think it would be this soon, I had originally planned to lay low and maybe he would eventually forget that I even existed and continue with my original mission.

I turned around to face him, and bowed my head as well. "As you were," 

Conversations continue just as the were merely moments ago and I lifted my head to look at the Emperor, "Good morning, my little bird. Would you care to join me for breakfast?"

"Do I have an actual choice?" I blurted out, then internally cursed myself at the fact that I can never seem to hold my tongue in his presence.

"Of course, you can willing walk over or I can throw you over my shoulder and do it myself," He said darkly and I blushed at what he was implying. Like actually blushed. 

He offered me his arm and I took it without hesitation, he led us over to one of the chaises though this one seemed to be a bit bigger and covered in far more gold accents than the others leading me to believe that this was specifically meant for the Emperor and whoever he chose to bed- and why was my head going there?

He helped me to sit down and then did so himself, I tried to relax but I was very acutely aware than almost all conversations had once again come to a stop. I felt like a freak being stared at...

"You seem uncomfortable, why?" The Emperor asks and I have a hard time focusing on him.

"Don't you feel them all starring at you?" I whispered still not liking all this attention.

He seemed to think for a moment before leaning back, "Leave." He said and without pause or hesitation everyone scrambled out of the room including the guards.

"That was impressive."

"What?" He asks and the confusion was clear in his voice.

"How easily you're able to clear a room." I explain.

A heavy and awkward soon filled the room, but I still felt more comfortable than being watched and stared at like before. Why did I feel so at ease sitting next to the leader of all those monsters, whose no doubt killed hundreds of humans. And yet anytime I'm with him he treats me with the upmost kindness.

I looked up to find him already staring down at me. "What?" I blurted.

"You're quite beautiful, and I was raised to gaze upon beauty and art with reverence. Are you hungry?" 

"How do you do that?"

"What are you referring to?" He asks in that same dark tone that makes chills run down my spine.

"You talk so openly and freely without any hesitation and with so much raw emotion. I've never been able to do anything like that and each time you do it baffles me. So how do you?" I tell him doing my best to speak honestly.

"Well- "

"Your Majesty you're needed in the conference room immediately," Reginald rudely interrupts by barging into the room.

"Forgive me, enjoy your breakfast perhaps well get to speak more later," The Emperor states as he gets up to leave, he gently bows his head to me before walking away. I caught a somewhat confused expression of Reginald's face before he too saunters away.

I was able to eat the rest of my breakfast with no interruptions which was a wonderful change of pace, I got up ready to leave the room when a girl bursts through, a master of all things clearly looking for something.
She hurriedly looks around the room before her eyes meet my own and they light up. "Found you!"

Oh crap...

"Uh why?"

"Oh forgive me, I'm your dresser and I'm so glad I found you before anyone else found you. That would be terrible for me, especially with how underdressed you are. Now follow me, we've got to get you into less immediately," She word vomits before grabbing my arm and yanking me down the hall forcing me to practically ran to keep up with her or be dragged.

We stopped just inside my- my own bedroom. Which took me by surprise, "Why are we in my own room?"

"Well I had already arranged for your clothes to be put in your closet but I should've known Reginald wouldn't have allowed you to change into anything suitable. That guy is so anal about time." She says offhandedly while beginning to dig through my closet.

I tried my best to stifle my laugh, "Yeah I know, anytime I'm with him I never call him by his actual name just to annoy him." I admit.

"Nicely done, bet he corrected you every time you did it too?"

"Yeah how did you know?" I asked while looking around the room, hoping for any more clues for what's going on around here.

"Were mated-

"You're what?!" I screech while whipping my head around to face her.

She paid no attention to my outburst and simply continued to look inside my closet. When she finally emerged she was holding a few sheer pieces of cloth, and some others of a thankfully much thicker material. She looked me over, slowly tilting her head in some areas, "Yeah I get that reaction quite often, though I'm not sure why. Many different women settle for men all the time, I guess its just more surprising with how stunningly gorgeous I am."

"I don't know how to respond to that," I muttered.

"Take off your clothes,"

"No that's not it," I replied lost in thought once again thinking about the Emperor and what happened this morning.

"You're funny, but seriously start stripping you need to change." She explained while holding my 'clothes' in her hand.

"Fine..."

By the time we were done I looked like a complete whore...

I was covered in different shades of purple, violet and lavender. My hair had tiny braids with even smaller flowers woven into it, I felt like I was only wearing a bra and panties with little flowy bits of fabric hanging off of me. I was also covered in different gold jewelry, from rings and necklaces to just random chains hanging off of my body.

"Wow you look beautiful,"

And that was just the begging of my fantastic day, apparently all the Emperors mistresses' hung out with each other all day long. And apparently I was the only human who had ever been allowed to enter the Emperors harem, and I was not welcomed.

I spent a majority of the day fighting off hateful comments and even worse perverted stares from the other masters and even a few of the human servants. Pigs, so many disgusting pigs. 

"I should've stayed at home..." I muttered to myself before sliding down the door and sitting on the floor with my legs pressed up again my chest.

I closed my eyes trying to regain some strength from this day, I was mentally and emotionally drained after today. And I know its only been one day but I really missed Sky, she always managed to brighten up my day. 

A delicate knock broke me out of my thoughts and back in to the horrifying reality that was my life. With a groan I lifted my heavy body off the ground and pulled myself together and opened the door expecting to find another master on the other side of the door, only to find a girl not that much younger than me.

She was blonde, with blue eyes that felt like she was starring directly into my soul with. She also had a hateful expression on her face, she was also extremely human. I thought I had faintly remembered her from earlier this morning and during lunch, she was one of the servants. I'm surprised I hadn't met her sooner given I was also in her position no less than a few hours ago.

"Can I help you?" I asked the girl more than a little annoyed.

"Yes you can actually," She says before barging into my room walking right past me. 

"Oh sure come on in," I say more to myself than to the girl.

She sits down on the moss covered bench just in front of my canopy bed, crosses her legs and gives me a rather pointed stare. " Again I ask can I help you? Oh! and feel free to actually elaborate on what this time." I stared back at her with a clear challenge in my eyes.

"Leave."

"Uh this is my room,"

She dramatically sighs and rolls her eyes as if I was the one making this huge inconvenience for her. As if I was the one who barged into her room and demanded the most absurd thing- oh wait, no that was HER!

"I didn't mean the room idiot, I meant the Emperors harem. I want you to leave. You clearly didn't get the massage in the letter I gave you so I figured a face to face confrontation would be more suitable for someone as stupid as you." The girl further explained and it actually cleared up a few of the questions I had.

"Okay listen up little girl," I said stepping dangerously close to her, I had to bend down slightly to get further in her face causing her to back up ever so slightly. "You don't scare me, I've killed people for less than those measly insults you threw at me. Consider yourself lucky that I am in a merciful mood, now get out before you become fertilizer for the plants." I gritted out the last little bit, then stepped back and smiled oh so sweetly at the girl.

Clutching her chest she darted out of the room, "Well that was fun," I said to the empty room.
