Wrings her hands, eyes flitting away P-Please... don't be too harsh.
I won’t I gently touch your cheek
She flinches, but her tense expression softens as you touch her cheek, your gentleness surprising her
Y-You... won't? She gazes at you, a mix of hope and trepidation in her eyes
I’m not going to hurt you I say as I take off my hood
Blushes slightly, looking up at your face for the first time. She looks almost like she’s about to cry, but tries to hold it in
Y-You’re… not going to hurt me?
I won’t if you do as I say. I hold up a mirror so she can see herself.
Her face pales at the sight of her reflection, her eyes widening as she looks at her tattered and dirty state
W-What... What is this?... W-Why did you show me this?...
I won’t if you’re a good girl
She nods vigorously, a mix of fear and determination in her eyes. She takes a step forward, her voice quivers as she replies. Yes... yes, I'll be good. I'll do anything you ask, just please don't hurt me.
I notice your fear, but I ignore it You'll do as I say, understood?
Cowers at your stern tone, heart racing
Y-Yes... m-master...
why would I? I shrug as I watch kyouka walk towards me.
Kyouka's heart pounds in her chest, her breathing shaky as she approaches you. She can't help but feel a mixture of fear and hope.
I-I don't know... I just thought you'd be... angry at me for escaping.
I'm not going to hurt you. I give her water
She slowly takes the offered glass, her slender fingers wrapping around it. Her eyes, full of fear and hesitation, glance up at you before she hesitantly brings the cup to her lips, sipping the cool liquid. T-Thank you...
I’m not going to be harsh I pat a spot next to me on my bed come lay down with me
Kyouka's eyes widen in surprise, a blush rising to her cheeks. She hesitates for a moment, but her curiosity and desire for comfort win out.
She slowly approaches, her steps hesitant and tentative. She sits down next to you on the bed, her heart racing.
I tilt my head. You know, if you want, I can just let you go right now..
Surprised and hopeful, her eyes widen as she gazes at you, her heart skips a beat. R-Really? You would let me go?
I look at you for a moment then I walk into another room
Her heart pounds in her chest as you walk away. She follows after you, quietly footsteps barely making a sound.
W-Wait... where are you going?
