The Queen's Pet Series

Chapter 4

She couldn't help but sat down on the floor and cover her ears. She couldn't get rid of the sound of pain and humiliation of the souls. They were stripped off of their titles and executed in front of their people and family. Sky didn't know how she could see what happened then, just by hearing the souls screams and pleas. She didn't even know how she could hear nor see them. But it's not the first time that she saw a soul trapped in a certain place. She remember seeing a dozen of them in the breeding house when she was young. She would often ask Nimpha, the old lady who worked there as to who those souls are. Nimpha would always say that she is a very special and rare omega. Nimpha then would said that maybe she is the last snow wolf that the Goddess uses to maintain and ordain peace within their kind. Sky didn't know what Nimpha mean that time. But she would always tell her to sooth the souls by singing.

"I didn't know i have a roommate now." Sky was startled when someone had spoken. She quickly stands up to see who it was. Behind her stands a woman who is slender and beautiful with dusky skin, rosy cheeks and red lips. She had a long brown hair and eyes that were....Cat like.

SHAHARA OF THE DESERT ACROSS THE SEA.

SKY

"Who are you?" Sky had asked the stranger who was holding a big rectangle object with weird carvings on it.

"I'll ask you the same." The woman said putting down the object that she ,was holding. Sky looks at her from head to toe. The woman is a couple of inches taller than her. She is also kind of exotic. Something about her made Sky to wag her invisible tail. If she were in wolf form, she'll probably wag her tail.

"I....I am Sky. I'm given to the queen as a gift." The woman raised her eyebrow looking at her from head to toe as, and then she snorted.

"And she accepted you? As far as i remember she loathed your kind, her hatred for your kind runs so deep that even when she saw one her teeth grind with each other." The woman then walks closer to her.

"Anyways. I am Shahara of the Desert. Nice to meet you Sky." Shahara then shook her hand.

"Why are you here?" Sky asked. She knows the Desert. Ebony told her that the desert is a place where there is a lot of sand and only few trees could be seen.

"Same as you. I am given to her as a concubine." Sky tilted her head to the side. It's the second time she had heard that word but she doesn't know what it is.

"What does a concubine do?" Shahara then look at her as if she is a weird person.

"Where have you been living? Everyone in the west knows what a concubine is."

"I live in a brothel." Sky said, she watched Shahara as she sat down on the bed.

"If you live in the brothel how come you don't know about it?" Sky scratch the back of her head.

"Well. I live in one of the brothel's room inside a cage. I wasn't supposed to get out of it nor interact with the other people outside of it. This is actually my first time outside." Sky explained. Shahara's eyes then soften. She cleared her throat before speaking.

"Well... A concubine is some sort of slaves. In my place back at the dessert we are known as the pleasure servants. We...we are used by the Queen for her own pleasure or to give her pleasure." Shahara explained.

"So you sleep with her?" Shahara nodded, she couldn't help but admire Sky's electric blue eyes. It was so innocent. It was like a child's eyes

"Yes, i slept with her and sometimes with the regent and there are some occasion where i slept with both of them." Shahara added.

"Would i do that too?" Sky seems to be scared.

"Well, i don't know. You are a wolf after all so maybe no." Shahara said. Sky bit her lower lips. She went down and sat on the floor. Now what? Would she just wait for the queen and the regent to lose interest in her? Or would she just plan to escape? But how could she escape this large house? It is filled with guards, and souls that are trapped.

"Oh i know that look. If you are planning to escape. You won't get too far. If the queen caught you. She'll probably beheaded you." Shahara said.

"I'm not meant to be a pet. I'm not a pet. Wolves belong to the wild." Sky said looking up at Shahara with pleading eyes, hoping she could understand her.

"You should have known that from the day you were born, your freedom would have already been taken from you. Your kind here are treated as slaves and w****s and animals. You must consider yourself lucky that you happens to be here. At least you could get some special treatment." Sky shakes her head.

"You do not understand. My kind, my people suffers in injustice. We are paying for the crimes that we did not commit. How many more years should we suffer? How many more children would grow up in brothels? In markets and in cages? How many more mother would mourn? How long can we live like this? Can you live in fear for all your life? Can you live the rest of your life in cage? I don't want that." Sky said, she didn't know where does words are coming from. She just wanted to say it. Shahara on the other hand is speechless.

"I...i never stop hoping. I never stop dreaming, that maybe one day, i could be free. Do you not want it too? You know? To go back to your homeland? To the place where you belong?" Shahara couldn't answer. She stared at Sky's blue eyes who's determined.

"I... I wish i could be like you. I hope you don't change." Sky smiled at Shahara's answer, but their moment were cut short when the guards barge in their room. The roughly pulled Sky with them and without a word they left the room.

Shahara couldn't help herself but feel pity for Sky. Because she knows, that they will break her will to live and to find, she knows that they will crush her dreams and hope. She could only pray for Sky to be strong enough. To keep her faith that one day, she could be free. That one day they all can be free. They were both then startled when the door of the room burst open and the guards harshly holds Sky's arms. She winced by their harsh grip on her.

"You're coming with us." One of them said as they drag her out of the room.

"Where are you taking me?" She asked them.

"The queen's chamber." The guard said picking her up, they harshly grip her on her arm and led her out of the room. She gulp and her heart started to beat fast. Who knows what the queen will do to her.

#Chapter7

Sky was roughly thrown in a room. Her body aches from being handled roughly, she could already see the bruises forming in her arms. Slowly standing up, she examined the room and she couldn't help but gasp. The room is painted with blood red color, and the bed, she could see the big fur that covers the king size bed, she can't be mistaken, it's a wolf fur. And on the ground she saw another one. She couldn't help but gulp. Well at least there weren't any souls trap in it.

But she still couldn't help but shiver in fear, and she just couldn't imagine what this people have through before they died. Did the queen order her men to torture this people before they got their furs?

"Do you like it?" Sky was startled when someone whispered to her ears, she turned around only to come face to face with the Queen. She standing their wearing her green dress, with a fur cloak on her shoulder. Then her eyes met the queen's eyes she couldn't help but admire the woman's eyes, Those dark and deep green eyes filled with sorrow, pain and wrath but still they remained to be beautiful. Sky knew it was wrong to look into the queen's eyes but at that moment...at that moment she couldn't help but stare at it. How could someone be filled so much hate? How could she be so beautiful and cruel? Why is the world so unfair?

"If i were you, i would've already be bowing my head." Sky blink when she heard the warning. Then again she remembered that this is the queen she is facing, so she quickly averted her gaze and bowed down, the queen made a pleased sound, she then walks towards one of the table in the room, then she opened some bottle and poured it's content in the glass. After filling the glass, the queen asked.

"What's your name?" Sky shivered when the queen stands closer to her, too close that she could smell her scent. Freedom, she smells like freedom.

"My name is Sky, your majesty." The queen hummed, she didn't speak for a minute. Sky could feel her gaze on her.

"You are very fascinating." Queen Lena said, she gently touch Sky's hair and then she smelled it closing her eyes as if memorizing her scent.

"Your kind were known to be as the priestesses. Devoted Followers of the Goddess of the moon. A divine beings, healers and many more." The queen said as she let go of Sky's hair. She then took a sit in front of Sky.

"They have white hairs, pale skin and electric blue eyes and sometimes...even grey. They live in the mountains." The queen continued to talk, she crosses her legs, Sky started to fidget, she feels uncomfortable with the Queen's penetrating gaze.

"They have this...soft white furs. No, not just soft, it could be the softest furs I’ve ever touched and i must admit, i had the greatest joy in hunting down each and every one of them, i then turned their furs into blanket, cloths, coat and many more. And i was very sure that i had killed every last one of them." Sky felt terror creep into her body as she listen to the queens story, the queen spoke in such a calm manner, as if she was just telling her a good fairy tale story with happy ending.

"Until you showed up. And that i was proven wrong." Sky was sweating and by the time the queen had risen up from her chair, she was shaking badly her heart is beating so fast that she was sure the queen could hear it and feel it.

"What do you think i would do to you?" Sky didn't know what to say? What would the queen do to her? She felt the queens hand on her nape, gently squeezing it, she could feel her breath right next to her sensitive ear.

"Answer me pet." The queen said as she kissed Sky's earlobe. Sky's body heat up and she gulp.

"Kill.....you're going to kill me." She said, after she answered the queen remained silent for a moment and she waited for her to say something because the silence is scaring her. Sky was startled again when the queen laughed. She laughed at her, "is that a good sign?" She thought.

"Kill you?" The queen let go of her neck and took a step backward.

"That sounds so nice...Really tempting.... But." The queen looks at her body up and down as if undressing her.

"It would be a waste. How about i tell you what's on my mind?" The queen then grabs her hair and pulled it back forcing her to look into the queens eyes.
