"Well, hello to you too" I greeted her, then looked down. Tall, big breasts and butt, long black hair and yellow eyes that glowed with intensity. I would give a ten out of ten.
Her eyes followed my gaze to realise that she was infact, naked. She quickly transformed, but only, this time, it was different.
"Interesting, very very interesting...." the words escaped my lips, making the wolf girl, once again look down. It gazed at its humanoid body, lifted its arms and looked at the furry limbs and the clawed fingers and then at me.
"What did you do to me?"
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"What did you do to me?" A rough voice almost like a growl escaped from my mouth as I tried to understand what was actually going on.
A minute ago, I was on the ground bleeding to death, and now, I was a mix between woman and wolf. And the guy who tried to kill me, and most probably saved me was staring at me .
"Say.. what's your name. We never did actually speak to each other till now right?"
The weird thing infront of me spoke with curiosity before extending a bloody stump with wriggling flesh. The flesh quickly morphed into fingers and finally into a fully functioning hand.
"My name is Ruudi. I'm the one who beat you to death and gave you new powers. I would classify myself as a Ghoul. I have another consciousness in my head. She calls herself Artalis. She sends her greetings as well. So, nice to meet you. Introduce yourself to us."
I saw the same hand that stabbed me in the chest. The guy spoke as if he had not tried to actually kill me just a few minutes before. Who does he think he is? Also.... a ghoul? I didn't know what that was either. But he was indeed different from cold ones.
A new power flowed through me as I brought my hand up. I will rip him to shreds. Fur bristled and coated me as I fully drew on my newfound endless power. DIE!
Hmm...!?
What am I doing? I wanted to kill the thing in front of me, so why am I grabbing his hand and sniffing it?
"Well... that's....one way to greet i suppose."
The thing called Ruudi awkwardly replied as I quickly pulled myself away from him.
"Come here"
And as soon as I heard those words, I wanted to take a step foreward, walk toward him.
'WHAT IS THIS!?'
Even as I tried to stop myself, my body would not listen. And it took a few steps foreward before I used all my will to stop myself from walking farther towards the creature.
"Hmmm" the ghoul mused as I struggled to control. "Looks like replacing your heart with something of mine has made you somewhat subservient to me. It's like you hold me in your heart, and your body will follow your heart."
He turned towards me. "Awww... That's so sweet, it sounds like a line out of a romance novel."
The control broke for a moment, and with a speed that dwarfed my previous records, I ran away, from the monster. But I couldn't go far. Within seconds I had crossed hundreds of meters, when my chest began to hurt.
The pain! It was so intense, I lost footing and fell over before rolling away on the humid dirt for a dozen meters. And yet I couldn't care as my heart felt as if it was being cooked over a candle flame.
I squeezed my eyes shut in pain, pursing my mouth shut with all my might, biting my lips as I turned human and the pain faded a little.
Haah, haah
I took a deep breath, and slowly opened my eyes, only to see a face that brought me a fear I've never known till now, just hovering a feet away from me. I quickly scrambled away, almost standing up to run when I felt the pain spike up again.
"Look at that," the thing who stood crouched a dozen feet away suddenly appeared next to me, lying on the ground leisurely with his head supported by his hand, as if he was relaxing. "Does thy heart ache as we part for the moment? Fear not fair maiden for you shall never leave my side. Forever!"
His eyes suddenly turned red,and he dissapeared before showing infront of me, and grabbed my cheeks . The playfulness gone leaving a stone cold mask.
"Because.. she shall remain with me, by my side as my right arm, for years, centuries, millennia still until her existence comes to an end. And she will do so gladly with all of her heart, for it will always belong to him."
The pain left abruptly as it arrived as he removed his hands from my cheeks. I wanted to scream, to yell but my heart.... it was no longer mine. So instead I remained silent. Never agreeing to the words. Yet bearing their meaning in mind as I ground my teeth in frustration and anger while fear and uncertainty kept my face cold. I was a slave.
