servant of the ashes

Actually Belle hadn’t been expecting such enthusiasm at cleaning her feet, but Belle soaked it up and enjoyed every moment. She was beginning to really like her little gift from Archon. He really was taking care of her in a round a bout way. Even Zee’s quick exit was amusing, she didn’t get a word out as the woman scampered away. Belle chuckled to herself and started to get comfortable. She’d have to start making the slave to weight training exercises, there was going to be a lot of heavy lifting in her future. She groaned as she lowered herself to the ground, close to the stream so her handmaid might rinse her toes more easily.

She watched curiously as the girl returned not once but twice with an odd little package wrapped in a leaf. Belle tilted her head curiously as Zee finally settled at her feet. Deathbelle listened intently at the explanation, absolutely thrilled at the gift. She nodded and allowed herself to be fawned over as she offered her first paw. She had brought out a bit of thick moss, and a sea sponge for the girl to use. ”Thank you, Zee. Your kindness is remembered.” She purred while pushing the cleaning instruments closer. ”The moss first, with spring water, to remove the majority of the grime. Finish with the sea sponge and your mixture.” She told her while leaning her back against the stone wall, sighing softly.

”I need more furs out here on my patio.” She mused softly as she closed her eyes, ”Maybe some pillows.” They did not quite have the riches that the Klein Empire once did. Surely those days would return, but for now Belle would only daydream about pillows to prop herself upon.
