for you i will

Aliana

Aliana's expression shifted to one of shock. The women were bartering over her? A soft thrill made her heart race. No no, don't get your hopes up... She knew it would be a long shot if they managed to buy her. There had been others before them, and all of them had chosen cheaper products instead, discouraged by her owner's strict reluctance to haggle for her. No matter how badly she didn't want to stay here, Ali had started to accept that this was her fate with every day that brought her closer to her second birthday. She watched the two ladies as they inspected her, the smaller one looking as regal as a queen while she inspected and appraised her. Those duo-toned eyes moved over her, and Ali realized this was a golden chance for her.

As if sensing her opportunity, Aliana rose to her paws in a slow, graceful movement, giving her fur a little tousle so it would settle smooth across her body. Her plush monochrome coat clung to her slender frame, the small lady making a soft sound as she stretched out her long legs and made a slow circle in place before settling on her haunches again. Was she showing off a bit? Yes she was, but it was also a silent plea. It was a wordless cry of "Please buy me, I'll be worth it for you." To her greater surprise, the slave master gave a grumble and began to haggle back with the clients after taking a long look at her. She didn't dare look at him, too afraid to see his expression and worrying it would crush her hopes of finally leaving this cell.

While the lady bartered with pelts and herbs, Aliana dared to glance back up—and met the taller woman's eyes again in the process, immediately diverting her gaze back to her dainty paws. Another cursory glance up and she saw the patchwork fae was also looking away hard. Her tail twitched with anxious recognition. Was she property as well? Did she belong to the smaller woman? Was she being bought to help alongside the taller lady? What sort of future might wait for her beyond these bars? Though she was still staring blankly at the ground, body sitting still and poised with her head dipped gently, Ali would occasionally steal glances up to the three wolves deciding her fate, mentally praying that the two faes were successful in acquiring her.
